In the media you see a lot about people on UC getting extra help, yet people who are not on this get no extra help during this covid outbreak or am I missing something.

If you are referring to the £20/week increase for UC that was made earlier in the year, then you are correct there was no corresponding increase to other benefits.

Hi to all,
It's a joke, the extra £20 quid other people got for being on uc, should had been across the board. Given the fact for example ESA - PIP claimants are also suffering under the hardship of this pandemic as in relation to a huge increase in Utility bills.

The extra 20 quid per week would help fund us for ..gloves, masks, sanitizers, extra electric, gas, and water costs.

Thanks for your read in advance.
