We supported a shocking 12% more people this December compared to December 2017. What's changed?
#UniversalCredit is now fully rolled out in the Vale. No-one should have to use a#foodbank. We urge@AmberRuddHR to listen to@TrussellTrust calls for change -
My wife and I went through the admin circus that is

@AmberRuddHR#UniversalCredit is broken and it’s your duty to fix it. Will you guarantee that domestic violence survivors and those that are severely disabled are not made worse off when moved onto Universal Credit? If not, I will be asking my MP to vote against the roll out. -

#UniversalCredit was not designed to 'help people off benefits' or 'make work pay'. 7m people will trapped on UC eventually. You can reform the system as much as you like it won't reduce poverty because of low pay and high rents. -

The level of understaffing within Universal Credit is now at crisis point. And with more and more areas being brought into Full Service the problem is just getting worse. 2019 will be the year that this benefit implodes. It's now beyond the point of rescue

As you can imagine I have gone from being poor on
#UniversalCredit to now getting into debt working full time on UC. I work hard, I leave the house at 7am every morning to get my son to nursery on public transport and make the four mile journey on foot and lift share. (8)Show this thread -
Disgraceful. How do they expect the poorest people to balance their books when they keep demanding overpayments back all the time.

#UniversalCredit
Unless you have alot of savings to fall back on UC will break you. If you are used to getting a wage weekly. Then you lose ur job. UC makes you wait 6 weeks before a payment. Even with an advance I will now ALWAYS be a month behind with every single bill I hav -
Little FYI for anyone on
#UniversalCredit. If you get paid 4 weekly, you will at some point this year get royally fucked over when two of your paydays fall inside the same one month period. Prepare yourself.Show this thread -
