More than 60 households in Coventry and Warwickshire have
been forced out of their homes by the benefits cap and so-called 'bedroom tax'.
The figure was revealed in new government data showing the number of people who
started a new tenancy in social housing in 2017/18. All households who start a
new tenancy in social housing are asked why they left their previous flat or
house. In Coventry alone, 25 new tenants blamed either the benefits cap, the
bedroom tax, or a combination of both for their being forced to move. Fourteen
of those said the bedroom tax was solely to blame. Read more on Coventry Live.
