Kate Osamor raises concern that Bulgarians are being unfairly targeted for benefit fraud investigation
Dozens of Bulgarian nationals have been tipped into poverty after unexplained benefit suspensions following the creation of a “risk review” unit in the Department for Work and Pensions, an MP has said.
Kate Osamor, the Labour MP for Edmonton, said her constituency office had been inundated in recent weeks with requests for help from Bulgarian nationals whose universal credit had been suspended for protracted periods with no explanation.
