One of the problems with this is that a large number of those claiming universal credit are in work, and the benefit acts as a subsidy for employers who don't have to pay their employees enough to actually get by.

It also doesn't affect PIP, which is not means tested. The only way to reduce PIP claimants without harming disabled people is to fix the absolutely humongous issues with the NHS that are leaving more people without treatment or even a diagnosis for far longer than it should.

    Open a window in one room and point a fan out of it a couple of feet away, then open all windows in other rooms. This pushes all the hot air out while drawing in to cool night air. I also pointed another fan into the room with the first fan to help with airflow.
