FURIOUS Labour MPs yesterday vowed to rebel against benefits cuts as it emerged one in ten carers will be hit.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves faced uproar over estimates 150,000 looking after loved ones for free will lose handouts.

It comes as one in four Brits now consider themselves disabled, according to a Government survey.

Labour MP Stella Creasey said: “The Chancellor is right the economic conditions have changed – I don’t support the welfare reform plans as a response and think there is an alternative course of action that can ensure fiscal stability and social justice.”

Fellow Labour MP Diane Abbott added: “This is a national scandal.

“A Labour government should have as its number one priority reducing poverty, not increasing it.

“I will be voting against these welfare cuts.”

Privately dozens more Labour backbenchers have expressed fury, including in private WhatsApp groups.

Emily Holzhausen, Director of Policy and Public Affairs at Carer’s UK, warned thousand of carers are bracing to lose out.

She told the BBC: “Familes are shocked. They’re really worried.

“Some of them are looking at a double whammy of losing PIP and carer’s allowance.

“I’m talking about family and friends who have given up work…in order to care because they have no choice.”
