More details
The amount of benefits paid out to non-deserving recipients in the UK is a travesty. Since the COVID19 outbreak we all claim to be so grateful for our NHS and key workers, lets do more than a weekly round of applause! Nurses, other NHS workers and emergency service workers are paid a pittance and yet television programs like 'Benefits Street' are allowed to exist. Mr Boris Johnson expressed his immense gratitude for the care he received from our NHS, lets give back to those commendable.
