Universal Credit
24 Answers
Just listened to the news and the who ha about those on Universal Credit that received and extra £20 a week during the pandemic. Now it will end in October and all and sundry are on the bandwagon about it. What about all those that never received any extra?? For example those still receiving JSA as they have not gone onto Universal Creidt yet (there are still a few). People on ESA or pensioners on the lower amount of Pension. Please don't get me wrong I am not against people having a living wage but it should not just be for one part of soceity and not the others who are on a different benefit.

Just seen on the news we have a shortage of HGV drivers.
There is a fund under Universal Credit called Low Value Provision that will pay for an HGV course. And it is a well paid job!!!
Perhaps those on Universal Credit could consider getting a job outside of their comfort zone?

As Lord Tebbit once said "Get on your bike"
//In the aftermath of the 1981 riots in Handsworth and Brixton, Tebbit responded to a suggestion by the Young Conservative National chairman, Iain Picton that rioting was the natural reaction to unemployment:
I grew up in the '30s with an unemployed father. He didn't riot. He got on his bike and looked for work, and he kept looking till he found it.//
