Nearly a Third of Working Age People to be Under Harsh DWP Sanctioning Regime When Universal Credit Comes In!!!

http://www.turn2us.org.uk/about_us/media_centre/news_archive/universal_credit_-_the_next.aspx
12 million people to be moved to Universal Credit by 2017

Working age population of the UK is 38 million http://www.agediscrimination.info/statistics/Pages/CurrentUKpopulation.aspx

This means that nearly one third of working age people will be subject to the harsh benefit sanction regime that is currently in place for those claiming JSA.!!

Under current conditions those claiming JSA can be sanctioned by withdrawal of their benefits for various periods of time varying from 4 weeks to 3 years. 

When UC is rolled out then those in part time and low paid work will be subject to the sanctions regime and will be sanctioned ie have their benefits withdrawn if they do not comply with job search, applications etc.  This will come as a cruel shock to many people in low paid and part time work as they will be unaware that you can be sanctioned for such minor indiscretions as turning up late for an appointment or eg failing to comply for a job that the dwp tells you to which requires you to drive, when you have never passed your driving test so used your discretion.  You must follow orders no matter how ludicrous or expect to be sanctioned.

There is a High Chance That Cameron and Osborne Engage in Inappropriate Sexual Activity With Horses

In the recent media it has come to my attention that both Osborne and Cameron are equating the fact that Philpott committed manslaughter on 6 children - with the fact that he was on welfare!!! Therefore the welfare state needs to be reformed!!!

Using the same theory of Logistics - Catherine the Great of Russia engaged in sexual activities with her horse whilst she was a leader in power.

Currently George Osborne and David Cameron are leaders in positions of power who both own horses

Therefore it must be highly likely that they may well be engaged in sexual activity with these horses.

The conclusion being that all rich leaders should be barred from owning or riding horses so as to avoid any possibilities of them committing acts of bestiality.

Only someone with half a brain could think that any amount of logic was used in either of these scenarios and therefore I must come to the only valid conclusion in the whole of this blog.

Cameron and Osborne do not have half a brain between them.

Bedroom Tax, Homelessness and The Extra Costs


Housing benefit for a 3 bedroom house in Manchester is on average  £127per week.  The Cost of B&B for a family that has lost their home because of bedroom tax is £650 per week

http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2013/feb/18/illegal-use-bandbs-house-homeless …

As can be seen from this article – B&B costs have already spiralled by 800% due to the changes in Local housing allowance, which have resulted in many people becoming homeless. 

There is also the hidden side of the homeless where people can end up on the streets as local authorities do not have a duty to house single people or couples without children.

This is all before the governments ‘bedroom tax’ comes into force.  This tax will result in many people getting into arrears and those whom are families may well be evicted and have to be re homed at far greater expense.

Again there will be the hidden side of more single people and childless couples being affected who will become homeless and not be rehoused.

The bedroom tax will exacerbate what is already an overused service to rehouse homeless families and there will be a lot more people homeless and on the streets – This is a tragedy waiting to happen.

Please join the demonstrations across the country and help campaign against the bedroom tax.
