Call to the Government to halt cuts to universal credit.

Closed 1,227 signatures

What the petition asks

The roll out of universal credit means that anyone who has a significant change of circumstance will be forced onto universal credit. In April this will be cut for the vast majority of single parents and working families. With cuts estimated at £1600 this is no small amount and will cripple many.
