Letter: Welfare reform
Sir: Someone should warn Tony Blair to watch his back. In his drive to find savings from welfare spending he is taking a quite breathtaking risk. A Labour government which undermines the welfare state would be defenceless against a Liberal Democrat party which campaigned on a "Save the Welfare State" platform. Labour backbenchers who enjoy their jobs should think long and hard.
