Twitter Web App : There is no fiscal or economic reason to take the Β£20 from Universal Credit
It's simply a political choice - and an act of gross cruelty
Of course, the debt of the poor makes wealthy people richer.

Twitter Web App : By reducing Universal Credit, you take money out of local economies. That cost alone is more than the Β£20 costs. You also put extra strain on the NHS, which cost billions
You also put people into poverty and debt - debt from which already rich people make profits.

Twitter for iPhone : Someone who paid Β£80 per month for their energy just lost Β£80 per month in universal credit. Meanwhile, their billβs gone up Β£20 due to price cap increase and gas prices. That person has gone from barely coping to Β£100 a month in debt in a split second.

Twitter Web App : People need to fully grasp that Universal Credit was never enough to survive or live on.
The Β£20 is a lifeline. People are feeling suicidal. It affects children, too. It's absolutely needed.

Twitter for iPhone : Iβm getting lots of replies to todayβs Universal Credit column saying βitβs not a cut.β Some people have become so immune to suffering they canβt engage with it. They canβt admit the injustice of poverty - so will come out saying the injustice is language.

Twitter for Android : 30 years ago I was penniless, just got myself off the street to a bedsit heavily pregnant. My benefits didn't cover my bills to live. I once lived on a lettuce for 10 days whilst 8 months pregnant. Luckily I succeeded in life. Cutting this Β£20/wk UC is like going back 2 the 80s

Twitter for iPhone : A new low from the Mail, aided & abetted by Boris Johnson.
If general practice fails, the NHS fails.
They know exactly what theyβre doing.
Please donβt fall for it.
And *thank you*, GPs, for the amazing job you do π

Twitter for iPhone : I am in my GP surgery.
The doors were not locked.
They are making appointments and seeing patients.
Donβt listen to the media nonsense about GPs being closed.
