What the petition asks
Too many families are being effected by universal credit. Going weeks without money living off foodbanks. Some even turning to crime to basically live day to day.
You just need to look at every other paper nearly every day more people are coming forward having no money. Freezing and starving to death. Losing homes the list goes on
