The British government is facing a crunch vote on its controversial welfare reforms. The minister refuses to say whether concessions will be sufficient to ward off a rebellion by Labor MP.

Health Secretary Wes Streeting said on Sunday that the government was “in a better position” afterwards dilution However, his disability benefits -but no longer heard confidently that the figures had had more than 120 Labor MPs with rebels.

The government has a majority of 165 works by Commons, which means that around 80 Labor MPs probably have to vote against their social law in order to defeat them depending on abstentions and to take on other parties.

“We are in a much better position than last week,” Streeting told BBC, but he admitted that “a lot of trust has to be rebuilt”.

The Commons voted on Tuesday about the social law an important test for Prime Minister Sir Keir Starrer When he approaches the first anniversary of his term.

Starer led the welfare reforms last week after the government had lost the vote despite its vast majority.

The amendments to the government to the proposal of the promise of not using disability benefits were described by the Prime Minister as an important U-turn as an important U-turn.

Critics said that the concessions take risks to create a “two -stage” welfare system in which people who are hindered after the effect of reforms could lose.

Starrer has argued that the reforms are of essential importance to prevent the welfare budget higher and higher, but the changes will reduce the savings of the government of almost 5 billion GBP to around 2 billion GBP.

In combination with a former Chancellor for Pensioners, Chancellor Rachel Reeves was left behind £ 4.25 billion hole in your budget.

The Ministry of Finance said that the hole is not occupied by “constant” borrowings and will determine how it is financed in the autumn budget, which causes the critics to warn reeves that have to increase taxes.

A number of work rebels said they were now ready to support the welfare bill, but it is assumed that dozens endure and many accepted the weekend to think about their options.

A spokesman for the Downing Street refused to say whether the government was “tacitly confident” to win the vote when he was asked, but emphasized how a number of leading rebels had agreed to support the government after the concessions.

They said the picture became clearer on Monday after the ministers had presented the reference violation of a review of the personal independence payments by Sir Stephen Timms, the Minister of Social Security and Disability.

It is unusual to emphasize so close to an important state vote without a clearer picture of the result and to emphasize the tensions and the poor blood within the work.

A government official said that they had “good conversations” with MPs about the changes to the law.

“The Timms check ensures that we protect the most susceptible protectors, those who want to work back into work and maintain a sustainable welfare system for the future,” she added. “This is important for all Labor MPs.”

On Monday, the work and pension secretary Liz Kendall is to make a commons declaration in which the planned changes in the government’s welfare reforms are presented.

It is not possible to change the actual text of the Welfare Act. Therefore, the MPs are asked to make the ministerial declaration as a promise that changes will be issued later.

Paula Barker, the Labor MP of Liverpool Waverre, who helped organize the Rebellion against the law, said that although it was “undeniable”, a number of opponents were convinced by the government “There are still many that are still voiced”.

“Some colleagues are waiting to hear what the minister says tomorrow,” added Barker. “The main topic is that the written declaration of the minister, which he is not at the foreground, is not at the fore and the trust in an all -time low is.”

Vicky Foxcroft, the Labor MP, who terminated her position as a government whip on the welfare bill at the beginning of this month, told Guardian that Starrer was not far enough.

She said she did not decide how she would vote on Tuesday, but wanted to determine further improvements to the government’s plans and added: “I would hope that we will actually start listening to disabled people and her organizations throughout the government.”

Louise Haigh, one of the leading work rebels, said she would now vote for the bill and added that a “considerable number of concessions” had been made, but it insisted that the government had to learn from the crisis.

“I think the crisis of this week was triggered by a feeling that we were not listening to … but the prime minister has accepted that another approach has to be chosen, and this is an opportunity to learn serious lessons,” Haigh told BBC.

Starer admitted on Sundays that he hadn’t understood everything correctly and admitted his latest focus until the middle of the last week on the Iranian crisis, and the G7 and NATO summit.

He dismissed when “Bollocks” claims his chief of staff Morgan McSweeney – A special focus for the rebels for dealing with the welfare reforms was the real driving force behind the government’s decision -making.

“All of these decisions are my decisions and I take them into responsibility for them,” said Starrer.
