I came across this chart from the Government showing the massive increase in the Universal Credit Claimants with “NO WORK REQUIREMENTS”
Since 2000, those claiming Universal Credit with a “No Work Requirement” has increased by 400%.
That is almost 10% of the working population.
One of the many reason we spend £90 Billion (£90,000,000,000.00) per year on Universal Credit.
I do not believe we have 4x as many people are unable to work than in 2020.
If we could get 25% of these off Universal Credit, we would save £10Bn, enough the increase our policing by 50%, but 25% should not be the target, we should be looking reducing the No Work Requirement element back to 2020 levels, saving a massive £35,Bn.
A total overall of the Welfare and Universal Credit system is required, I do not claim that I understand how Universal Credit is meant to work, but if the country is to avoid going bankrupt, this has to change.
