Im a full time carer my mrs had a server breakdown 15years ago she is classed as need 24/7 care
and is diagnosed with bi polar paranoid delusions and very bad anxiety and auditory and visual hallucinations
and will never be well now
for obvious reasons we haven been able to sleep in same room for over 10years now
so the bedroom tax is practically making me homeless where they hell do they think i should sleep
we was original moved to a 2 bed council house because on top of every thing else she developed claustrophober.
iv got a poped disk and curvature of spine and chronic pain from it and on pain killers so sofa is out
and was attempting to jump out of the window in a small one bedroom place
so it impossible for us to move in to a smaller place
fact is councils don't have any any way
govorment have all ready lost a case for disability discrimination in case involving children they did ask to appeal but withdrew as they knew they were on a loser
same reason apply to adults but they deny that
there is currently a urgent judicial review re disabled adults
i have informed them that we are not paying it full stop
and if they attempt to evict i will sue for discrimination
formal complain of discrimination has been made to our council and our mp who voted against it is supporting that
if they suceed in evicting us and we lose
my mrs will end up in hospital i wont give a toss and will probably burn the building to the ground
as least i have some where to sleep and they with have to pay rent for jail cell
