By-election candidate campaigns against the Bedroom Tax

taxbankersnotbedroomsGreen Party Fulwood  by-election candidate Brian Webster said “Coalition cuts are disproportionately impacting those on lower incomes, benefits and particularly disabled people so they have to be a priority for me at this time.  Many are close to the breadline and the benefit changes on April 1st will tip people over the edge.  Fulwood is one of the more affluent areas in the city with fewer people in this situation. But many do need help and I’m proud that we are putting information through letterboxes on the Westminster council estate to help people understand how the misguided and unfair “Bedroom tax” will affect them.
