SCRAP THE BED TAX ASAP
I,m living in poverty paying £39.07 a week rent/ bed tax from £73.10 a week and even when working part time getting £97.50 a week i still had to pay £50.00 a week rent so still living in poverty even when working we as a nation need to stick together poverty shouldn't exist in England in 2016 .
THIS IS AN UNFAIR TAX ,NOTHING TO DO WITH SPARE BEDROOMS BUT ATTACKING THE VERY POOR PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY THAT,S WHY ONLY THE UNEMPLOYED AND PEOPLE WORKING THAT CAN,T PAY FULL RENT HAVE TO PAY IT BUT PEOPLE THAT PAY FULL RENT AND HAVE SPARE BEDROOMS DON,T PAY IT WHATEVER NUMBER OF SPARE BEDROOMS THEY HAVE.HOW IS THIS FAIR
