Wrong matey, - the whole ethos behind it wasn't to simplify the system, but to impose cuts to the social security budget - something which is being done and people switched from Employment Support Allowance to Universal Credit are losing, on average £100 per month!!! - despicable scumbag 'nasty party'!!!

Re: Universal Credit & voting intentions
I think the disability benefits should have been kept separate. People waiting for Universal Credit may not have enough money to eat properly or even pay for prescriptions.I don't even know if I'll get dental treatment etc. Good job I had surgery right in the middle of moving! I know I have 6 months to find out!
I get the feeling the powers that be are making things stressful hoping we either give up or die!
