Read the original article on telegraph.co.uk (opens in a new tab)This is a comment piece by the Conservative shadow work and pensions secretary setting out her party's welfare cuts and attacking Labour's record. Its savings figures are presented as the party's own costings, and its headline matches the £36.1bn total given in the body. Nothing in the supplied material contradicts its figures or shows that it smears a named person or misleads on the matters an opinion piece is judged on.
Opinion piece: read for false claims of fact and for fairness to the people it names, not for its opinions.
“which our costings show will save £9.5bn”
The author says the £9.5bn saving and the social housing figure come from her party's own costings. Readers can see it is a party estimate, not an independent finding.
“Helen Whately MP is shadow secretary of state for work and pensions”
The Telegraph tells readers the author is the opposition's welfare spokesperson. Readers can judge her claims about Labour and her own party's plan as partisan argument.
