Help us fight the bedroom tax
The Government wants to cut the amount of benefit that people can get if they are deemed to have a spare bedroom in their Council or Housing Association home.
In February, MPs have a chance to vote to stop the Government's plans to slash the housing benefit of social tenants deemed to be 'under-occupying' their homes.
This proposal is effectively a bedroom tax and will have disastrous implications for a huge number of people already struggling to make ends meet. People over pension age are not affected but it will hit disabled people, working families on low incomes and families with young children.
Please email your MP and ask him/her to vote against the bedroom tax!|
