Petition Action

scrap the benefit cap whilst the lockdown and lives are affected by coronavirus

Petition Details

The extra money to help people on universal credit is amazing but for people like myself who have the benefit cap in place this extra money shouldn't be included in total amount of benefits but as an extra payment that is either separate/scrap the benefit cap to allow us to recieve this extra money

Additional Information

I have been furloughed so not receiving all my wages so the extra help that you have offered people on benefits is helping people who arent affected by the cap but those that are we dont get the help because it gets taken away because of the cap
