#UniversalCredit being interviewed for RT television on the likely impact of this reform being rolled out at #Christmas . Poverty the media story of our times
Thanks to my book Food Bank Britain, have been invited to share my concerns on Universal Credit which will make a terrible impact on millions this Christmas, for a news programme going out on RT Television one of a long line of media interviews on this issue.
My point is that the concept of a single welfare payment not unlike a basic universal wage, is a great idea...but here is the catch, this is being imposed at Christmas when most people are in need of fuel to keep warm, the school holidays and all the economic pressures that Christmas puts on families, so to stop people having any income in December and having to wait until January , is not just a bad idea, in my view is cruel and mean spirited, but then Welfare from this Government long ago moved away from being about help and support for people most in need, to be a punishment for those at the bottom of the food chain, although the Mrs May seems to have not noted that some of the hardest hit by this policy will be the self employed and small business the back bone of the UK economy who need people with pounds in their pockets to spend at Christmas, further more, this Gov seem to think that the crises can be addressed and picked up by the only growth from this Gov, Food Banks, which clearly they cannot be expected to feed millions more than the 3 million plus they already do as direct result of Gov ill thought out policy agenda.
My RT Television spot should be on your screens first week December, Will the Gov listen? Clearly not Hate, bashing the poor is very 2017 .
Buy my book, clearly we are going to need the funds it produces to feed ever more people in the coming months.

Kath Duncan Liberty my new play on the struggle 4 civil liberties based on true historical events as published in my new 2B published book #LastQueenOfScotland
When i started my food bank four years ago, i never thought three books later i would have spent three years researching the life of a woman , in my view probably the most important civil rights activist of the past 100 years and shamefully erased almost from history in Scotland and UK.
My book Last Queen of Scotland will be out after Christmas , but my play and this chapter in Kath Duncan life will be published December, so hope you buy a copy, best £10 you will spend, supports my work and helps restore this amazing woman to her rightful place in history.
I hope every drama , theatre production group across the world will think about performing this play, based on true events that lead to the establishment of The National council of Civil Liberties, that to day we call LIBERTY.
I do find it amazing that more people in the UK no about the USA civil rights movement than the one in their own country, i hope this plays, does Kath and the story justice.
These are the 3 cover designs for the play-Book, which from 1-3 do you think is the most commercial and most likely to buy tickets ore the book ?.
You can direct mail me to order a signed copy ready for Christmas.
Welcome interest from Publishers and Theatre groups looking to perform this play. The first time the story of UK civil rights movement been written .
