No, you ask the council for a smaller one and they say no. It's the
council who are saying there are none left. Most rented flats that are
dirt cheap for people on the dole are owned by the council. Anyway,
even if they weren't, it would be easy for the body that charges the
bedroom tax to find a flat and say "go there".
No one charges anyone a bedroom tax.

What a stupid way you look at things. Everyone gets £x in benefits. They
take some away if you have too many bedrooms. So that's a payment you're
making back.

Tenant receiving housing benefit to pay rent on 2 bedroom flat is
assessed and told they can only have housing benefit for a one bedroom
flat, ergo tenant cannot afford rent and looks to move to one bedroom
flat.
Theory
Tenant moves to one bed flat and government saves on housing benefit
Practice
There are not many one bed flats available (other than in Hull)

Exactly, that's the problem, they're taxing you on something you cannot
stop doing.


Corse you can. You can have more people in the house or move to a house with
fewer bedrooms.


Hello Wodders.
Still doing the same spelling mistakes I see.

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it.
If it comes out of theground easily, it is a valuable plant.
