Review & change Universal credit legislation
People & families are being penalised or affected by the change over from Tax Credits to Universal Credit. There are extremely large numbers of people and families financially unstable and suffering since this benefit arose.
People with disablilities are being left with no money or support.
Housing has become more of an issue. Food banks are having more pressures. The amount of people taking their own lives and becoming depressed has rose again this is down to this benefit.
Students with or without families are being penalised, this makes people not want to gain further education which the government should be promoting.
