Do not raise the UC Administrative Earnings Threshold for single parents

Petition Details

Do not raise the earnings threshold (AET) single parent Universal Credit claimants need to meet - in order not have to meet a Work Coach - to 18 hours a week at the national minimum wage. We believe this change is unfair on single parents, who may not be able to work more hours.

Additional Information

I work in a nursery. I cannot do any more hours than that because they do not have the hours for me. Like many single parents, I do not have anyone who can look after my child. Please stop treating single parent households the same as two parent households. Please don't do this to single parents.
