Osborne on the Philpott sentence, the Chancellor said:
‘There’s a question about the welfare state, and taxpayers who pay, subsidising lifestyles like that’



Guido shares a page with the Prime Minister in today’s Sun. Dave makes the case for welfare reform, and in Guido’s column you can read all about:

“I think what George Osborne said was absolutely right. He said that Mr Philpott was the one to blame for his crimes, that he should be held responsible, but what the Chancellor went on to say is we should ask some wider questions about our welfare system, how much it costs and the signals that it sends and we do want to make clear that welfare is there to help people – it shouldn’t be there as a lifestyle choice.”
A name to remember for the run-up to a big 2015 dogfight: the Tories have selected Andrea Jenkyns to take on Ed Balls in Morley and Outwood. The seat was almost the scene of the biggest upset of 2010. Expect Jenkyns’ working class striver credentials to be pushed from now until election day, Jenkyns is a local, comp-educated candidate who runs her own business. Conveniently she says fixing the broken welfare system is her main priority. 
“Like many local people, I was caught out by the never-ending roadworks on the M62. Pulling on to the motorway at Morley I realised too late that the speed restrictions were still in place. I was caught and bang to rights – doing 56 in a 50 mile restriction zone. Going too far, too fast, you might say.
