Joanne McCartney AM: Yes, thank you, Chair. My initial question is to Sam Gurney, if I can, and it is about the increasing number of people who are claiming Universal Credit (UC), which we know is a very difficult and cruel system. Since the end of March, I believe, 440,000 new claimants for UC have come from London. When furlough ends, that is likely to see another spike. What concerns does the TUC have about this record number of Londoners finding themselves reliant on UC? What will that mean for poverty in the capital?
