Use Your Unions or Other Organisations 

Are you a trade union activist? Could you get tax credits on your local branch's agenda and network within your union to make this a more prominent issue, perhaps with a Motion to your union's annual National Delegate Conference?  Union processes tend to mean that this is likely to be a slow-burner, but Alison from the TCC is happy to share her experiences of union activities if you are interested.
           
Tax Credit Casualties are independent of political parties, although we cannot help but notice that some MPs are far less critical of tax credits and far more resistant to changing the system than others.  We seem to be hearing a lot of anger at the current administration, and many people feel somewhat less inclined to support the Labour party at the moment than they might have done previously.  Although this is a matter of choice, some people have opted out of their union's Labour-affiliated fund and instead opt to pay their subscriptions to the General Political Fund, hoping that when they advise the government of this loss of support (and vote), more notice will be taken of our unnecessary plight.

Please note that we are not tax professionals and are working on a voluntary basis, unpaid, in our ‘free time’. Between us, we have a lot of experience and knowledge in this area, gained over the last few years of supporting victims and helping them fight for justice and their rights. But legislation, operating practice and individual cases change all the time. While we aim to be professional and accurate at all times, please understand the circumstances we are working under, and accept our support, guidance and information in the sprit it is offered; goodwill and camaraderie.
