    In some cases, these debts have been forgotten about for years, coming to light only when households are placed on universal credit.

    They have no right to try to correct their own errors off the backs of people who are already paid so little that they need benefits to keep them hovering below the poverty line.

    These debts exist because the system was designed by middle-class divots with no concept of the precarious, hourly paid work they’ve forced so many people into, and who were too idle to design a system that actually works for the people who need it most.

    Absolutely disgusting.
