If I was in no. 10 I would be quickly talking to people living with disability (focus groups, citizens jurys) BEFORE doubling down on policy that I then had to row back on. Why is this not happening? If it is then it certainly isn't being briefed to press.

measuring the lifetime benefits of preventative services is messy business but if anyone can - its the IFS Every £1 spent on Sure Start generated £11 worth of benefits for children who had access Yes, the results were mixed but the scale and importance are clear ifs.org.uk/publications...

NHS waiting lists not driving higher benefit claims due to poor health says new analysis from the IFS today - there is no clear relationship at local level. So what is to blame? We don't know but we do know there has been long underinvestment in pop health and prevention ifs.org.uk/publications...

I don’t envy Rachel Reeves today. While rigid fiscal rules can encourage short-termism and hinder investment its hard to argue that she is in a position to borrow more money. But her decisions to slash disability benefits and support for those with health conditions lacks long term strategy
