How many times has this thing had to be restarted again at a cost of 19.5 BILLION so far!
It was never designed to help anyone, it was designed so the disabled and unemployed conform to tory ways. Remember the help line is 55p per min designed so people won't use it. (I think David gauke was forced to change this after the out cry from Corbin. People can now ask for a free call backs from DWP. Not sure what number that is on)

found it 0800 328 9344 but that is for new claims and reporting changes to your circumstances.

Isn't Theresa Mary May putting up taxes to pay the NHS 20 BILLION. What if she told the public she is putting up taxes to fund universal credit to the sum of £20 billion?

I thought this was quite appropriate from Red pepper.
Tom Walker digs into universal credit’s origins in Tory ideology
October 18, 2017
Universal credit isn’t about saving money – it’s about disciplining unemployed people.
