Theresa May risks damaging Britain's international
reputation if she fails to scrap housing benefit cuts facing the disabled,
veterans and other vulnerable people, Labour has claimed. Shadow communities

Government's priorities while also accusing them of "breaking the covenant
with our veterans". Read more on
