They should have a life without stress doing things they enjoy” “It’s about responsibilities as well as rights! I want my son to have a life like the rest of us with some work and some play.” “There are not enough jobs around now for everyone”

  12. 21st Century Welfare Reform “ Over the next two Parliaments the current complex system of means tested working age benefits and tax credits will gradually be replaced with Universal Credit, an integrated payment that will ensure work always pays, with less scope for fraud and error. £2 billion has been set aside in DWP’s departmental expenditure limit settlement over the next four years to fund the implementation of the Universal Credit. Further details will be set out in DWP’s forthcoming White Paper” (from Spending Review 2010)
