What the petition asks
Revoke Universal credit before it is rolled out to millions more no-one has benefited from this. Universal credit offers advances that take money away from your monthly income. People literally can’t afford to live and when you work and pay childcare you are worse off.
As millions are spent on Brexit millions are being taken out of benefits. Universal credit leaves families in poverty where parents can’t cope and children suffer you talk about an obesity crisis in children when cakes cost 50p and 9 strawberries are £3! Stop the universal credit roll out. People who are trying should not be penalised! Stop the cuts look after humankind.
