A memo leaked to us shows that DWP are planning to tell lots and lots of fairytales about how well Universal Credit is working. This is not our experience or the experience of anyone we have contact with.
On Friday May 31st DWP are launching a misleading advertising campaign with a wrap around on the Metro free paper.
This is costing quarter of a million pounds of our money meanwhile they have robbed millions from women pensioners, disabled people, women and children all of whom have been pushed deeper and deeper into poverty, and despair. Many have been forced to resort to prostitution and crime in order to survive.
DWP must be stopped from using the media to spread their lies so we’re calling on all of those affected and those who care about the truth to do what we’ve done with the Mail and Sun before and go to your nearest train and tube station or any other locations where the Metro is given out free and remove or otherwise prevent as many as possible to be read.
This is nothing short of a propaganda war which we must win. Please ask friends and family to help with this task and share this request on social media.
We are preparing a dossier to complain to the advertising standards authority but let’s make sure the Metro never want another DWP advert again.
