Now carry on, or will you do a runner from this thread? The same as you have on the Rotherham thread?

Where are the accuracies in what you said on the Labour introduction of the bedroom tax?

Labour did not introduce a bedroom tax, they introduced a cap on housing benefit that was not applied retrospectively. The cap only came into force whwn a new application for HB in the privte-rented sector was required.
The tories came up with the bedroom tax, a far more accurate description than their spare room subsidy.

The LHA was a needs based system, which is exactly the same as the 'bedroom tax'. Size of property & number of rooms according to actual need.
Remarkably tenants who did move were allowed to keep the difference between what they were paid in housing benefits & what they paid to their landlord. So their was no actual saving on the benefits bill.

Both policies were about resource allocation. The right number of rooms being allocated on the basis of actual need.
How much Labour saved on the benefits bill by allowing tenants to keep any reduction in rent they achieved from their 'profiteering' private landlords?
How many people actually moved home as a result of the LHA?

And income and corporation tax are both policies about raising revenue for the government. Doesn't mean they're the same thing.

Quite a number actually, but don't let facts get in your way, they haven't troubled you thus far.
