Million More Families Will Pay Bedroom Tax If Tories Triumph In May

David Cameron is set to hit ONE MILLION more families with the hated Bedroom Tax if the Tories win the election. New official figures analysed by Labour show that the number of households affected by the cruel levy will increase by 220,000 a year.  And that will top a million homes if Mr Cameron is PM for another five years. More than 460,000 social housing tenants pay the tax through cuts in Housing Benefit but that number will rise as children leave home or a family member dies. One in three victims is disabled and 60,000 are carers. Read more on the Sunday People website.
