The Bedroom Tax is a cut in housing benefit from the 1st of April 2013, if you live in council or housing association home. It caused hardship for a lot of people across the United Kingdom, costing low-income families an average of 700 GBP per year.
The Liberal Democrats have repeatedly joined the Tories to keep the Bedroom tax in place. Thanks to the support of Labour MP's the vote was won, but, unfortunately, this vote will not abolish the Bedroom Tax. That didn't stop the bedroom tax, but at least it is a step in the right direction.
