UNIVERSAL CREDIT NEEDS TOO BE URGENTLY STOPPED

Hi looking for something to tell me who has control over government. When is it going to end cruelty with universal credit system. these so called government ***** how can we make them listen to us. All affects it's having on us. Too many people committe suicide because of system and how so many are being evicted from their homes. I thought there was a law about how much say people can live on not any less WELL HOW CAN THEY GET AWAY WITH SANCTIONS . Especially I got one for missing a phone call. And they took £160 off month benefits. How and who can write to get our voices heard and get system stopped before more deaths happen . It can't go on living like this. Why can't government see what's happening and stop it ASAP. Thanks rant over x

This is how I describe UC.
Also people already on ESA shouldn't be forced to claim UC either. As we know ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
This system is morally wrong.

Some of The government are a club of thieves and bandits !!
AND THEIR CALLING US !!
AND IN CHARGE OF OUR MONEY !!! God help us !!
Don't get me wrong. The system is appalling for so many reasons. I got a decision on 13th December.... Then in January found out our claim was cancelled on 7th December... Makes no fecking sence...hours of sobbing on the phone..
But for several reasons our little fmsily gets a little more money on Universal Credit and I'm grateful.
But I don't understand why Universal Credit has to be so awful

I could tell what I would do about it, but then you can't say things like that on an open forum. Put it this way, the French had the right idea, they got rid of all the rich ponces who were robbing them blind.
People always blame the government, but it is the queen who grants royal assent to legislation. Anyway I don't know who votes Tory, they are far worse than Labour, then again, does it make any difference who votes when the only thing that changes is the name of the PM, and we don't have a say in that.
poverty . Is this the blueprint that Iain Duncan Smith decided to use on us
Here is a quote from the Guardian
The German state is obliged to guarantee its citizens a life compatible with "human dignity," a principle that resulted in a 2010 court ruling that said the standard Hartz IV payment is not calculated in a way that ensures that. In April 2012, a Berlin court decided that the monthly Hartz IV payment was exactly €36 too little(or €100 for a family) to comply with constitutional requirements. That is not yet, and probably won't ever be, enough to overthrow the entire Hartz concept, but the conflict with the "pressure to work" ideology is growing more apparent.
A DISGRACE TO HUMAN DIGNITY
IS THE UNIVERSAL CREDIT MODELLED ON THIS IDEOLOGY?
