DWP figures just revealed another benefit reform is turning into a disaster
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has released the latest figures surrounding a controversial benefit reform. They show that the changes made, affecting thousands of people, are turning into nothing short of a disaster for them.
The DWP: cutting again
Support for Mortgage Interest (SMI) used to be a welfare entitlement. It covered the interest payments on people’s mortgages, up to £200,000, when they were unable to work. Former chancellor George Osborne announced in 2015 it was going to be stopped. Its scrapping came into full effect on 6 April this year.
