Tomorrow I receive my #UniversalCredit twice a month I receive £293.00. I have a shortfall in #HousingCrisis of £54 per month , paid my bills . I have bought £14 of food. I now have £6.21 left until 6th June . #DUP get back and form an executive .

I also just remembered my next #UC will have to be used for oil . I rely on friends and my 68 yr old father . Im also disabled and had to return my #motability car as I could not pay for fuel. My car gave my some freedom . Since #covid my anxiety is unbearable @RobinSwannMoH

So I reached out to @CommunitiesNI for support . However money for people in crisis is needed now. I have to wait up to 10 days for a call not for money . #DUP get back to work #UniversalCredit #Westminster

So it's now Monday and thanks to local foodbank for help . @BorisJohnson "nothing of the table" regarding cost of living . Still no @niexecutive so although they have £300m to spend while #DUP stay out of executive our most vulnerable are left to rot. @CommunitiesNI

Well that's Tuesday over. I'm still without any money although local foodbank have been great. As I'm moving #electricity supplier I can't "borrow" £5 electric ! Thanks to friends . #DiscretionarySupport it's day 5 since I applied for (emergency support)

It's Wednesday and thank you to @DannyDonnelly1 for contacting me . I called discretionary support and have now been advised claim are taking upto 14 days to process . Decision makers deal with 4-5 a day and hundreds of claims coming in daily @DeirdreHargey . #DUP back to work

So I can have a loan that they never told me about . Took reading legislation . Thankfully they are paying me a loan on Friday . It's sucks but no option to take loan.

After some support from @allianceparty @DannyDonnelly1 I finally get a call from Discretionary Support however was in bathroom . They allegedly text you to say they will ring THEY DONT . So don't know what's happening now @CommunitiesNI #DiscretionarySupport #DUP back to work

It's a week tomorrow that I reached out to @CommunitiesNI for support. #UniversalCredit have agreed a loan which I will receive on Friday . I can not afford more debt . This is 100% because @J_Donaldson_MP pulled #DUP and form @niexecutive which has £420m to spend @moneillsf

I will keep this tweet going till I get my @CommunitiesNI call . Thanks to the many private messages and offer of support . I relied on friends and local foodbank .I wanted to highlight the issue and the failings of @niexecutive to get back to work #DUP £420m waiting
