Downing Street considers U-turn on cuts to benefits for disabled people Controversial plans to cut personal independence payment (Pip) may be shelved after a tense cabinet meeting and backlash from Labour MPs

Downing Street considers U-turn on cuts to benefits for disabled people.

That would be good. People must keep up pressure. Visit your MP's surgery.

Must reverse the two child benefit cap, restore winter fuel payment to pensioners below the poverty line.

They tried to position Suzi as a rebellious alternative but she was sadly like status quo. #totp

I always think 'oh I'll watch five minutes' and then end up loving this film. On repeat.

The Fleetwood Mac scene always gets me, great script, great comic acting, awesome music.

Arthur was the only good guy in #TheHoliday. Miles was as much a self obsessed narcissist as Jasper. He was also punching up. Iris deserved better.

I met some of Madness at the Drum Marathon at the Royal Court in Liverpool in the early 80s.

FABULOUS people.

For me they never surpassed One Step Beyond. Been doing that dance in my kitchen just now. #totp #madness #BBC4

There's, like, TWO Simply Red songs that I find GORGEOUS and this is one of them, his voice is beautiful.

Apart from that insert the usual Mick Hucknall comments...

Series 1 of The Diplomat was the best thing I've seen in yonks. Bit disappointed in Series 2.
