DWP

CAMPAIGNERS will target the Department for Work and Pensions in Sheffield tomorrow in protest at increasing worker poverty.

Sheffield TUC will be among organisations taking part in the protest, which runs from noon to 1pm at the DWP offices at Hartshead.

The government’s universal credit “uplift” of £20, which was introduced during the pandemic, is to be withdrawn tomorrow.
