Rejected petition Objection to Government's Proposed JSA and Income Support Benefit Reductions (1% Freeze)
Rejected on
We, the undersigned, hereby Strongly Object to Government's Proposed JSA and Income Support Benefit Reductions (1% Freeze), as this is immoral and would cause severe and unfair hardship and poverty for numerous Benefit Claimants.
-
To the Government: Do NOT freeze Benefits for ANYONE at just 1% a year. Keep Benefit Increases at the Rate of Inflation, as you currently do so.
