The Benefits Party
The TaxPayers’ Alliance has a useful piece on the political pressures behind benefit spending.
Benefits of Labour
Benefit spending has seen enormous growth since the Labour government came to power in July 2024, with spending on just six benefits reaching over £133 billion in England and Wales by March 2026. [1] Despite widespread recognition that the current system is not working, meaningful reform has proven politically difficult. One of the reasons for this is that benefit spending is concentrated among particular groups, while the costs are spread widely across taxpayers. Those who stand to lose from reform thus have a much stronger incentive to resist change.
No surprises but well worth reading. Here are two of the key findings -
- Labour MP Diane Abbott’s Hackney North and Stoke Newington constituency saw the largest increase in benefit spending, £76.6 million, more than three times the constituency average.
- There were 15 constituencies where benefit spending rose by more than £50 million from August 2024 to March 2026; all were represented by Labour MPs except Birmingham Perry Barr, represented by independent MP Ayoub Khan.
