‘AXE THE BEDROOM TAX!’

‘AXE, axe the Bedroom Tax!’ chanted protesters outside the Royal Courts of Justice yesterday morning, before the opening of an appeal against the hated tax being brought by five disabled men and women.

Claire Glasman of disabled group WinVisible told News Line: ‘We’re here to support people like Charlotte and Jason Carmichael, whose Housing Benefit is being cut by the Bedroom Tax.

‘The government is taking away any consideration for disabled people, grandmothers who have grandchildren to stay, and dads who have kids at weekends.

‘We’re determined to stick up for what everyone needs.

‘Everyone should support people who have various needs in the community.

‘We all have different needs and they should be recognised.’

Ariane Sacco, also from WinVisible, was carrying a placard with a photo of Stephanie Bottrill.
