Petition Action

discuss reducing none working benefits inline with minimum wage

Additional Information

To open discussion in the house with reguards to reducing benefits for people who do not work.
At present the limit is £500 per week.

for someone working a 40 hour week they would have to earn £16 per hour to achieve this!

The current minimum wage is £6.31 and the living wage is £7.65.

When you introduce a disability these figures are even more shocking.
