Rejected petition Reverse the Decision to deny under 21's housing benefit
There are many young people who cannot live at home for a variety of different reasons such as abuse and so forth and if this benefit cut is implemented it will create homelessness for many under 21's and could also cause death in certain circumstances
More details
In order to move forward positively we need to have these benefits restored and if money is really an issue then the government should consider having their own wages that are extravagant cut by half
