• Close down Hardware and DIY only Stores during Tier 4 Lockdown
    Keeping more stores open is increasing the risk of infection rates and allowing this new, higher-risk mutation of COVID-19 to spread quicker. Hardware stores were never classed as essential during the March lockdown and thus should remain that way. I am pretty sure the public can survive the Coronavirus without Christmas Lights, Dinner Plates or Bathroom Mirrors. Food however is your main concern and should be limited to these stores only. Unless of course, the government is willing to put money situations over people's lives.

  • Extend the £20 uplift to Universal Credit to ALL benefits
    Those on legacy benefits such as ESA and PIP are no more or less worse off than those on UC, any uplifts to benefits because of the pandemic should have been applied across the board. Many people have been put at a disadvantage over the last nine months simply because of where they were living when they applied for benefits and many of those people are disabled and already in a more stressful position because of the pandemic. They do not need further financial stress on top of this. When asked about this Matt Hancock said that people on legacy benefits are also on Universal Credit which is absolutely not the case.

  • Scrap two-child limit on Universal Credit claims
    Covid-19 proves that financial security is impossible to predict and children that are born into a family, that then require welfare support, do not qualify for support purely based on their birth order. This means that older children get less of their entitlement than their peers in two child families. This may push children into poverty.

  • Call time on the greedy MPs who voted against free school meals!
    Children should never be left to go hungry. 4.5 million kids in the UK are living below the breadline, while MPs - having given themselves a pay-rise in March this year - are claiming back meal expenses and even having subsidised drinks in the parliament bar! The Mill Pub in Yorkshire has set the standard - these MPs think they can snatch meals from our kids, well, let's see how they like it when they're banned from every pub in the country!!! It's time for the biggest pub chains in the country to step up and show who's side they're on. If enough of us sign today then we can show these greedy MPs that they can't get away with starving our kids.

  • Addressing children in poverty in England
    Understand the impact of reforms on children where many other vulnerable groups are protected somewhat from the programmes of welfare reform, children remain vulnerable to its effects. Understanding the impacts of these reforms on children should help inform policies and encourage thinking about how to mitigate these effects.
