No they won't because those children aren't living there on a permanent basis.

Yes of course it's an ill thought out 'Tory' idea, but a Labour or any other Council will have to apply the law/s made in Our wonderful Parliament.

Do you not see the trick?
Those of us affected are poor, we have to be poor to get the benefit, to blame everything on the Western Oriental Gentleman or any of his ilk is falling in line with what they want, division.
Division=Confusion.
Confusion=losing the arguement because we, (the poor), argue amongst ourselves instead of against the real cause.
I'm not going to get a bonus at the end of this year because I've failed to get a job, but my equivelent in Government/Banking will get a bonus for putting thousands more on the dole...
I honestly think (and hope), this will be another Coalition 'U' turn, Maybe they are chasing all the people living under one roof but not declaring it?
I could probably think of a cheaper way but, what the hey let's not worry, let's all apply to our Landlords for the spare bedroom to be removed?
Seems stupid to do that, but then, to penalise someone for living in a house when the whole district has thousands of houses exactly the same, with no alternative seems even worse.
