Burnham suggests cutting benefits would force people into crime

The Prime Minister has suggested that cutting benefits would force people to turn to crime.

Andy Burnham attacked the Conservatives’ plans to cut £36bn from welfare spending, arguing that it would heap pressure on the criminal justice system and the NHS.

Suppose we snip out some of the rhetoric.

heap pressure on the criminal justice system and the NHS.
the utter chaos that they cause in people’s lives
If you just go to brutal cuts
people in absolute crisis
they will be going into other services in a chaotic way.
If you come at it from a numbers game
you’ll throw people into crisis,
you’ll be spending money on people in A&E
and the police, [the] criminal justice system

Okay I’ll admit that I quite like doing this. In spite of his ‘decent northern bloke’ shtick, Burnham is a crude purveyor of clumsy, vote-farming rhetoric.
