FOOTBALL pundit Gary Neville tore into Tory ideology today during a televised debate ahead of the government’s “brutal” £20 cut to universal credit payments.

The former England and Manchester United defender appeared on ITV’s breakfast show Good Morning Britain alongside former Thatcherite MP Edwina Currie in the morning.

Currie told hosts Susanna Reid and Tony Blair’s former spindoctor Alastair Campbell that there were “record numbers of job vacancies” in the country and that employers “from catering to the care industry, food processing” were in need of workers.
