article_snippet.sent: Conservatives angrily denied the specific proposals set out in the document revealed by Lib Dem minister Danny Alexander.
article_snippet.sent: But Conservatives remain under pressure to spell out how Conservatives will making savings from the benefits bill.
article_snippet.sent: Mr Alexander told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: 'There are lots of ideas that have been doing the rounds for years, so I think it's not credible for the Conservatives to say the Conservatives do not know what the Conservatives're going to do. '
article_snippet.sent: If the Conservatives are proposing £12billion of welfare savings without knowing what the Conservatives're going to do, that is highly reckless. '
article_snippet.sent: Equally, if the Conservatives do know what the Conservatives want to do and the Conservatives're not telling the British people, that is deceitful. '
article_snippet.sent: But the Conservatives dismissed the claim as 'desperate stuff' from the Liberal Democrats and insisted the proposals were 'definitely not our policy'.
article_snippet.sent: Our principles are very clear when it comes to welfare: it is there to help people, especially to help people get back into work, but also to support the disabled, to support pensioners - and those principles will not change.'
