      There was no 'Bedroom Tax'. That was just a trigger phrase fabricated by Labour to hide THEIR guilt in how Housing Benefit had been manipulated for electoral gain by THEM.
      What you are referring to is the decision to make the Local Housing Allowance (LHA) applicable to all tenants claiming Housing Benefit (HB).
      Lets remind ourselves who created the LHA? Tony Blair to reduce the amounts being paid in HB - a Labour PM CUTTING a benefit! So he decided what people should be paying in rent and the accommodation they needed and created the LHA regardless of local costs.
      THEN on top of that he decided that those people who were Council Tenants would not be subject to LHA at all! Just private tenants. He set one set of rules for one person and another for a different person.
      What IDS did was to bring Council tenants into the LHA a) to make it equal for all tenants and b) to try and move people out of housing they didn't need and was needed by larger families.
      So no Bedroom Tax just making all people equal. How very Socialist!

      All the anti EU Tories lie and talk nonsense, but no media cares. Most of them are previously sacked from government or using Brexit as only way they can be in government.
      When Boris was foreign secretary he didn't know basic foreign policy history. The media made a massive fuss when he said a dumb unimportant comment on a TV show, but the media didn't care when he said on the same show that there wasn't a vote on the 2nd war against Iraq, when more Tory MPs had voted yes to it than other parties. That means he either puts on a clown act to get away with telling lies and the media is in with him. Or him and the media are stupid.
      Boris is a man who shacked up with his pregnant girlfriend in No 10, with a string of previous women he got pregnant and treated badly including his wife, he was still married to while living with the girlfriend, and USA citizen Murdoch owned Sun make him out to be a trustworthy man.
      Michael Gove said in Guardian Education that Labour were liars for saying Tories would get rid of EMA if they won the election, and then Tories did take away EMA when they won the election.
      Others, like ex Tory banker Nigel Farage who was paying his foreign wife on tax payers expenses and hiding money in tax havens, pretends he's nationalist, when he's a capitalist Tory who wants us closely linked with USA banks encouraging greed and debt. He resigned as soon as he talked people into voting to leave the EU, to leave us out the EU with Tories in power.
      Nigel Lawson who was Chancellor when the economy crashed in the early 90s after Tories did the opposite of Germany in the 80s by making millions unemployed, and left us an economy closely linked with USA banks encouraging people to live in debt, was recently advising Britain leave the EU, while he was applying to live in France.
      People thought there would be less immigrants if we leave the EU, but instead of Europeans, we're getting more from the third world, caused by our policies of going along with the USA/international bankers, funding extremist groups to overthrow other leaders. Going back to times when the secret service whistle blower David Shayler told how Thatcher was using British money funding Al Qaeda in Libya to overthrow Gaddafi. While more old British people were dying of the cold than before Tories stole and sold off public owned energy. Leaving us an economy based on little else than being closely linked with the USA banks, encouraging many to live in greed and debt, until economy crashed by the early 90s, of which only the poor and those not any use at being a slave to the bankers, upper classes and Tory tax dodging friends paid for.
      Even if Boris Johnson resigns, there will be worse Tories waiting to take his place.
      As an English person I'm jealous Scotland can leave the UK to become more like the rest of north Europe and Scandinavia, with politicians who care about people and society. Devolution has already allowed Scotland to stop their students being £50,000 in debt like in England.

      @@andrewsocial9309The EU can save us from Tories. The rest of north Europe and Scandinavia have better pensions and less differences between the rich and poor. Because England is full of brainwashed idiots who make us nothing but a lapdog to the USA banks, encouraging people to live in a permanent state of debt, especially if wanting a university education. Also in a permanent state of my war, where people are brainwashed from seeing it's the USA and England who are the danger to our lives and the planet. Even when British people are shot in n Tunisia and blown up in Manchester by extremists who trained in Libya after Gaddafi, our media never remind British people of the secret service whistle blower telling of Thatcher using British money to fund Al Qaerda in Libya against Gaddafi. That was while more old British people were dying of the cold than before Tories stole and sold off public owned energy.
      Not to mention how Afghanistan wasn't extremist before the USA were arming and training the extremists there in the 80s against Russia. Then the USA didn't care about what was going on in Afghanistan after their involvement for years before Sep 11, such as females banned from education.

      We have had ids as a government minister and he brought us the terrible Universal credit for example. He was a failed tory leader as well. As for Farage he is no more than a salesman of brexit which has proven to be an absolute disaster.

      Yes Blair certainly did do some horrendous things such as killing hundreds of thousands of Iraqi citizens who had nothing to do with the war and nothing to do with his lies of weapons of mass destruction. 179 British soldiers was sent to the death because of this war mongering lunatic.
      As for Kier Starmer his about as much Labour Genghis Khan . Just another champagne socialist who would say anything and do anything to be the head of the labor party.
