Frank Field Reveals ‘Human Cost Of Bedroom Tax’

Commenting on the figures, Frank Field said: “We know from what’s happening in our communities that the human cost of the Bedroom Tax is devastating. This cost has been borne by some of the poorest families in Merseyside who find themselves now consistently short of rent money. But these latest figures highlight an additional and growing cost to taxpayers, who have been asked by the Government to paper over the cracks of the great Bedroom Tax disaster. Might the Government now learn from the chaos and misery the Bedroom Tax has caused tenants, social landlords and taxpayers, and immediately bring this vicious policy to an end?”
