Max limit on benefits for those out of work, set at level of average working families. So no-one ever better off on benefit than work Disabled people will NOT be included in this.
Opinion: Excluding disabled people from benefit limit is about the only time it's acceptable to exclude disabled people. However, until detail in the form of accurate figures is released about the different levels Universal Benefit will be set at and specifically the definition of disability to be used we won't be any the wiser than rhetoric and playing to the crowd.
