Don't axe the housing benefit for 18- 21s

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

When I heard of the news on the huffington post with the conservatives said they axes housing benefits for 18-21s I was annoyed that this legulation could make thing difficult for those who needs it when they get kicked out of their parents home or lost their home
Now i understand the benefits cap and I think it's fair enough and the country is in a bad state,but I don't understand why cuting benefits to those who seems to need it the most. Maybe if we could into the council tax support scheme when I got this and I think this could good cause We can learn how to pay taxes. So please don't axe the houseing benefit.
