Abolish universal credit

Petition Details

Do away with this benefit, it claims to make single parent workers better off but in reality throws families into poverty.

Additional Information

If you make any changes in your life, ie: change your job or address and are on benefits the government will force you onto universal credit. You will be allowed to keep the first £199 you earn, any thing over this amount the government will take 64 pence per £1 . How can that encourage people to work.
