Accrington Web - View Single Post - Bedroom Tax At Last, Our Council Speaks Out.

just for note this bedroom tax was supposed to hit people such as those who had remained in a propperty after their kids left home leaving 1 person in a 4 bedroom house for example.Councils of all partys have used this to target people with 1 empty room to save money knowing that they can sit back and pass the blame on to central government.The intention to penalise single people with 1 bedroom empty or only used at weekends by single parents with access to tehir kids was not the intent of the government but the councils have seen an opportunity to save money and pass blame.

having said that its up to central government to close that loophole and fix their error to prevent councils penalising the vulnerable
