The Tories and the Lib Dems have voted against scrapping the hated bedroom tax, this is after 150,000 people have voted to have it scrapped.

Can you remember Nick Clegg a few months ago said it had to go. This bedroom tax is as hated as the Poll Tax was in the 1980’s when Margaret Thatcher brought in. This bedroom tax hits out at the most vulnerable and poorest of our society. I hope that when the people of this Country make their mark on the ballot papers next May, they will bear this in mind. The Lib Dems are all over the place on promises they made and have continually broken.

I just do not know what their canvassers will have to talk about when going around door to door. As for the Tories remember what Ian Duncan Smith has said if they get in next May. Nothing will be ring fenced ie, the free bus passes, the Winter allowance, the free TV licences for the over 75s, none of these will be safe. Let’s hope and pray for a Labour victory.
