Closed 457 signatures

What the petition asks

From April 2016 all new and 2018 all current social tenants will only receive private sector rates for housing benefit. The impact is MASSIVE, especially for those single, under 35 with no kids. They will be evicted and become homeless. Osbourne is trying to destroy social housing. don't let him!

If hit by the bedroom tax AND you are under 35 AND you have no dependant children living with you then you have just been evicted. This will close all women’s DV refuges and will evict a massive number of disabled.
