How would Universal Credit work?

Why does everything want to change onto Universal Credit?

    Six income related working age legacy benefits are ending and being replaced by Universal Credit. It has been a long process scheduled to be completed by December.

    • Housing Benefit
    • income-related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
    • income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA)
    • Income Support
    • Child Tax Credits (CTC)
    • Working Tax Credits (WTC)

    Universal Credit is an effort to simplify the system by rolling up several systems into one central monthly payment.

    Perhaps they want to gather all benefit claimants into a single group and then ship them to Rwanda for them to apply for asylum in Rwanda!
