Mid-Worcestershire politicians clash on Universal Credit row

MID-Worcestershire MP Nigel Huddleston has hit back at criticism from his election adversary amid a fraught national debate over Universal Credit. It centres around the £20 uplift for claimants as part of the response to Covid-19 but that is due to end on March 31. The government, which has said no decision has been made, is under pressure to extend that provision with Labour MPs instigating a non-binding motion – often used to express approval or disapproval of something which cannot otherwise be voted on – to keep it in place. All bar six Conservative MPs – ex-Work and Pensions Secretary Stephen Crabb, Peter Aldous, Robert Halfon, Jason McCartney, Anne Marie Morris and Matthew Offord – toed the party line and abstained, a move Helen Russell, the Labour candidate up against Mr Huddleston at the last general election, described as “shameful”.
