This shows why the campaign to keep the £20 uplift in Universal Credit failed. Not enough of the Great British Public believes that people on benefits deserve them. I'm not sure if there were another way to persuade more people to support a more substantial benefits system, given the relentless contempt for the working poor displayed by most of the corporate media and both political parties.
