Petition Stop the bedroom tax and stop homelessness increasing.
The government should stop the bedroom tax and help the vulnerable on
limited budgets. Homelessness is on the increase and this tax is helping
towards those figures due to people not been able to pay for the rent shortfall out of their limited benefits.
More details
With the universal credits system taking 6 weeks before getting paid, the bedroom tax is another expense that people are struggling with and making people homeless.
