A homeless charity boss says she was told she wouldn't get Lottery cash - unless she stopped publicly criticising Universal Credit and the Government. Outspoken CEO Ellie Waugh, 53, applied for £130,000 from the Big Lottery Fund for charity Humanity Torbay. But she claims an official who came to assess the application then tried to ''gag'' her. Ellie makes YouTube videos and regularly publically comments about homelessness and the impacts of the controversial new benefits.
