What welfare cuts and changes to PIP did Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall announce?

Liz Kendall has unveiled a major package of reforms to the UK’s welfare system with the aim of saving the government £5bn by 2030. The work and pensions secretary announced a widely-anticipated string of changes to the UK’s benefits system in the House of Commons on Wednesday in what she framed as a bid to encourage more Brits back into the workforce.
