Ensure that no claimant on benefits is left without financial support.

What the petition asks

I am hearing about families losing their homes and needing to use food banks due to a sudden removal from one set of benefits to the new one:- universal credit. It can't be right - the benefits should run seamlessly into each other. This is totally inhumane.
This has happened to someon I know with a disabled child.
