up paper universal credit, but the thing is that universal credit has taken the brunt of the increasebecause george osborne decided to cut the amount going into the benefits, so first and foremost it is restoring it to where it was meant to be, and the second point is this benefit gets money to those who need it the most in the most manageable and accurate way, far more accurately than the furlough scheme and with far less opportunity to have fraud take place in it, so it should be retained because it is also the dynamic. it will reduce as more people go back to work and they start paying tax so keeping it there and helping them get back to work is and helping them get back to work is a positive and in the dynamic it is notjust a positive and in the dynamic it is not just a a positive and in the dynamic it is notjust a single spending point. the government says reducing the payments would actually contribute to getting people back to work, so sure that not be the focus? ida. to getting people back to work, so sure that not be the focus? no, we not it u- sure that not be the focus? no,
