We call on the Government to provide compensation to families separated by the minimum income threshold which we believe has resulted in children growing up without parents, families have split and divorced. The loss of earnings alone can leave them destitute.

Expand eligibility for bereavement damages to adult children
Update the Fatal Accidents Act 1976 so adult children can claim bereavement damages for their parent’s death. We feel this current law excludes many families, is outdated, and needs reform to reflect modern family relationships.
Allow Workers to Pay Essential Living Costs Before Income Tax Is Deducted
We ask the Government to change the tax system so essential bills are paid before income tax is taken. People should cover unavoidable costs like mortgage or rent, council tax, gas, electricity and water first. This would reduce pressure on working households
Allow shared benefits for children in split families
Parents who share care of their children should be entitled to an equal share of child-related benefits (Child Benefit, Universal Credit elements, DLA), rather than only one parent receiving them. We feel the current system is unfair to working parents.
