Back on subject though, here in Germany, if the social are picking up your tab for housing they have no qualms about reducing your allowance if they consider your accommodation beyond that required for your situation, you find the extra yourself or you move, no ifs, no buts, hard & uncompromising.

Well the Germans had a way of fitting whole families into a small space, being hygienic they always insisted folk went into a shower first!
Meanwhile if that is the way its always been then good luck to the na...sties.
Look at the bedroom tax this way, for some time in this country we haven't had the death penalty.
Now suppose it was re-introduced?
Do all those convicted of murder suddenly become people for the long drop? Or do we start with newly convicted folk?
I would think it most inhumane to suddenly give someone that has served a life sentence a sudden change to the death penalty.
So how come people already living in a house with two bedrooms suddenly gets penalized?
Surely if the decision about bedrooms was to be fair they should say, if before the date of taxing bedrooms becomes law you live in one ok no fine, if however from that date if you choose to have a single life with two bedrooms you will have to pay extra just for tommyfanatics privilige.
