The Tories will fight against every benefit for those who need it and their supporters will cheer them on because it's a ****ing cult and they love to see people they consider lesser suffer, even if they shoot themselves in the foot in the process.
No doubt this will be just as memed by tory supporters.

The irony is that LOADS of the "new" Tory voter base gets some in-work benefits, things like the "help with childcare" element of UC actually extend well into the middle-income range, but they don't think of it that way. "People On Benefits" = the unemployed / "the dole" and they can't get their head around the fact that it's not just the unemployed that the Tories want to shaft, it's anyone with a household income under 6 figures.
