FIGHT THE BEDROOM TAX

The Tories introduced the bedroom tax on the 1st April cutting 14% off housing benefit if a household has one spare bedroom and 25% for two bedrooms. More than 10 million people will be affected by the benefit cuts being implemented at the moment. Two thirds of all households affected are households with disabled people in them who have a spare room for their carer to stay in, or who for other reasons have made alterations to their homes. Cuts are making it impossible for tenants now heartless council bosses in Sheffield covered the town in posters and even sent tenants Christmas cards Youre evicted as part of a put your rent first campaign. Campaigns against the bedroom tax have already been set up in several cities across Britain. They have managed to prevent the evictions in Manchester and last week reversed local councils decisions in Glasgow We support all local and national campaigns against benefit cuts.
