Basically people in social housing, with more bedrooms than they use will be asked to pay up or relocate. They will be allowed to sublet the spare room to cover the tax if they choose to. I agree with OP's sentiment but this is not the spark we need. [/quote] They won't be "asked" to pay, they'll be told. And they'll be "allowed" to sublet. Geezuz, being a subject must be nauseating. [/quote] Bear in mind this only applies to government subsidised housing. You own your house you can have ten spare bedrooms if you like. Imagine it was across the board though, think of the bill for Buckingham palace [/quote] Exactly. There really is no problem. If you are going to take from the government then the government should be able to tell you what to do. People in government housing should be thankful they even have a roof over their heads. Or if they aren't then they could live in a shelter or on the streets. [/quote] maybe that is where the next riot will come from. from the disenfranchised scroungers who feel that after years of free living, now are having the rug swept out from under their feet, and they will be pissed!!!!!
