@J_Elliott94 homelessness will increase after April when the local house allowance is frozen -we going back to 2010 !!

It's blowing my mind that there are people who follow politics that still aren't aware benefit cuts are coming in April.

The health element of Universal Credit (known as LCWRA) is being cut by 48% to new claimants assessed as having limited capacity for work by the DWP.

[Ben Claimant 💚 Join a Union @BenClaimant]

Official stats show that 356,521 UK households had their benefits shut down after because they didn't make a claim following a #UniversalCredit migration notice. Key reasons for this were confusion, feeling overwhelmed or believing they earnt too much.

The 13-million working-age families that make up the poorest half of Britain have been working more over the last 30 years.

They account for the entire increase in the UK employment rate since the mid-1990s.

Council Tax has become increasingly regressive.

It now takes nearly 5% of income from the poorest families but barely 1% from the richest. For many, it's become a grinding monthly obligation to rival the Poll Tax.

UK electricity costs have not merely risen in line with global trends did but soared.

British households have gone from paying ordinary costs by international standards to footing some of the highest bills in the world.

@JAMortram Given a choice, I would rather be healthy and working rather than sick or disabled, reliant on people and machines to afford me any quality of life. Care is expensive.

@resfoundation The unemployed also pay towards council tax from their benefit.

Here’s what's actually happening with the increase in the Universal Credit caseload

Nearly 80% of the increase is people being moved from old benefits onto Universal Credit

Not new claims

A transition we inherited
