BecLFC ⚽️🏃➡️🌳🌸<p>In my family and wider family, there are people with autism. To my knowledge, none of them claim universal credit. There are people out there claiming fraudulently and I agree that they should be asked to work. How does the government find resources to put these people on the right path to getting a job that is suitable to them? When my son was looking for work, he was put on a scheme that cost the government money. He wasn't given a suitable job and couldn't cope. It's a catch-22 situation, especially if you're treated like you're just a number. He receives PIP and if he doesn't get it anymore or universal credit then what happens regarding pensions, if you're no longer in the system?</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autism</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/universalcredit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>universalcredit</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/UKGovernment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UKGovernment</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/pip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pip</span></a></p>
