Stop the deduction of carers allowance from people's Universal Credit award

Summary

Stop the deduction of Carers Allowance from the carers Universal Credit award, it shouldn’t be treated as an income. As a carer I am only able to work on a part time basis, due to my caring commitments. However, I find myself, as many others can, worse off. I receive less than £100 a week in carers allowance and then Universal Credit take it all back off me in a monthly sum. When you take into consideration the amount carers save the government by providing care, I believe this is very unfair.
