how to stop the bedroom tax - people paper - people power - please join 12.5.13

no politician will ever strain,
because life is about reward,
they will read this while sipping campaign,
and brush this off as a fraud.
the immense wealth is accumulating,
all there houses are in the bank,
"their" spare bedrooms need illuminating,
but robbing the "tax payer" they should thank.
well done the "people" press,
with your objecting its going to bloom,
there is going to be anarchy and no less,
all provoked by the tax on the spare bedroom.
the government must understand,
we hold the key to peace,
and if they want a restful land,
remember we all way out number the police.
the "London riots" brought unease,
no one wants a repeat,
this is no threat "oh please",
but on "bedroom tax" we need a retreat.

( i really feel this is so unfair as when you get old moving is a very stressful time and not easy done, yes i understand people may have spare rooms but the question should be - how many rooms do politicians have in there house's - i purpose'sly include the S as they have more then one. i also feel what needs to be looked at is the rich buying all the house's and flats and taking the stock and renting them out for there own gain and i want to highlight NO government has built council or social housing stock on a mass scale since the 1980's. are you doing anything to highlight the unjust on the "bedroom tax" or do you think it is perfectly logical. open the debate. if you want to sign my petition you can find it here - https://www.change.org/en-GB/petitio...-bedroom-tax-7)

No thanks I agree with your sentiment but there are more established petitions already running starting another one wont help it will just water down the numbers signing the well established ones.

Specific bedroom tax petition : http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/45141 (might as well stick to the official .gov petitions as if it reaches 100,000 they will be forced to acknowledge it and discuss it in parliment.)

Repeal the Welfare Reform Act 2012 petition : http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/41600
