....it will warm the cockles of your socialist heart:
The coronavirus crisis will leave millions of households facing a £6.1billion collective personal debt tsunami, one of the UK's most well-known debt charities warns today.
The Government should hand out £5billion in grants to those hardest hit financially so they can repay their debts, bring in repayment plans for those behind on their council tax and turn the Universal Credit five-week advance system into a grant in most cases, StepChange said.

Step Change helped me help myself by dealing with my creditors. However, this proposal is insane on several levels... Not least because it reinforces reliance on other people and someone will need to pick up the tab, and you can rest assured that it won't be the people claiming... :-X
A better campaign would be one striving to reduce housing costs to affordable levels and giving people the tools to financially stabilise themselves.

Give a man a fish and he can feed himself for a day, teach him how to fish and he can feed a village. Forever... and all that.
