Overview

• The plan identifies around £23bn from welfare changes, including tighter rules on PIP for less severe mental health conditions, stricter Universal Credit requirements and moves away from some cash payments.
• Access to welfare and social housing would be restricted to British citizens, a shift the party says would affect roughly 470,000 current Universal Credit claimants, with the two‑child cap kept in place.
• Overseas aid would be reduced to 0.1% of national income, with the party estimating savings of about £7bn a year.
• Civil service headcount would be cut by roughly a quarter to around 2016 levels, which Conservatives say would save about £8bn annually.
• Green spending would be rolled back, including scrapping heat‑pump grants and other subsidies the party deems ineffective, with claimed savings of about £1.6bn, as Labour, Lib Dems and aid groups criticise the proposals’ impact and feasibility.
