Seeing this so called 'bedroom tax' apples to rented housing from the Council or Housing association and not to private owned homes, I fail to see the validitity of your arguments.
Your like a poor c'mon ....

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
Perhaps Less is a bit old to start now but if he gets a move on and had 11 children he could have a brand new £400,000 house free and pay no bedroom tax. He could also, after inspecting it, tell the council he didn't like it and wanted a better one.
He could even have his own horse(they're edible) and it would only cost him £200 a month of his benefits. In fact, he could probably afford 3 horses( apparently others can and you'd never be short of a home made lasagne).

I could start today, by God given the right woman/women I could fill the spare bedroom in next to no time!
Oh hang on though, hadn't considered my bad back, can I throw a sick note in until my spine matches my libido?

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
Addendum to the above, I'd better not throw another sicky anywhere, I did that end of January, still going through the system living on thin air, if I threw another that would only cause delays.

At the last count 12 people a week were dying from the DWP'S and ATOS's decisions or treatment of ill people yet no one cares but if the government lined up 12 people per week and shot them in the street there would be outrage.
villifying the mentally ill and disabled has clearly worked and while thetide is against them cameron and co are clearing them out regardless of what may happen to them.
i wouldnt put it past cameron to tell doctors and surgeons that if someone cant be repaired to a state fit for working then they shoudl be left to die and treatment witheld

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
freedom of inforrmation act from the national statistics,this is now the usual way to get the truth from this goverment.just like ian duncan smith squealing like a petulant child yesterday when a radio presenter asked him for the truth. truly embarrasing.there was no jimmy involved in this graph.
