Why can’t you be positive about universal credit rather than keep talking it down
-
You’re a bot, right?
-
No - talking down a program that is supported by the majority of Britons is counter productive - besides beggars can’t be choosers.

It may end up being a good system, time will tell but around this time of year, it's hard for everyone so why hold back payments?
-
What’s so special about this time of year - Christmas isn’t a celebration of materialism. Perhaps a more penantent turn should be celebrated

The advance is a sticking plaster, because claimants will still lose six weeks worth of income out of a year. Most peple would struggle with that, not just UC claimants.

So as a carer to my wife, and having a six years old boy, I shall ease the pressure on the public purse, by going back to full time job and handing both over to the state! I wonder which is more expensive, but it's alright to treat us like second class citizens!

People are being denied ESA (inconsistent with prior claims) more than usual- forced to make new claims for JSA which will trigger U/C

Because what little intelligence they have between them is all being soaked up by their insanely destructive Brexit project, or furthering their selfish political ambitions.
