This week has been a week for shocks and this is another. Some people think that the bedroom tax is a good thing…. Another group of people think that sanctions are a good thing…. They are both a terrible punishment on the poor. Ive said before that this has been a full on war against the poor and here is a victim of the combination of the two evils, the bedroom tax and sanctioning. Ive also said before that the coalition government and those who have implemented these heinous crimes against the poor should be punished. Please remember that the Labour Party, if successful in the general election want to propose further cuts. Cutting the poor to pay the rich will never work. This is a result. Use your vote wisely.

The poor side of life 
HOW LABOUR CAN INSTANTLY CHANGE THINGS AFTER THE ELECTION
Miliband is saying Labour will pay councils so avoiding people needing to pay Bedroom tax, when he can get rid of the Bedroom Tax within 5 weeks of the election by the below.
Labour can …. issue a Statutory Instrument giving 28 days notice and that is the end of it in 5 weeks time after the election. …
… the SI route is so easy to adopt and implement.
Someone writing for Labour has copied what the SNP are doing now as a devolved nation from the UK parliament, of paying Scottish poor people’s council tax support and bedroom tax,
when Labour down in London in government can do this Statutory Instrument by a Minister direct, after the election.
WHAT IS A STATUTORY INSTRUMENT?
On the government website it describes a SI as:
…Statutory Instruments, also known as SIs, are a form of legislation which allow the provisions of an Act of Parliament to be … altered without Parliament having to pass a new Act.
…Statutory instruments can … amend, update … existing primary legislation.
And best of all it costs nothing to do in the London government by the Minister.
MAYBE AN STATUTORY INSTRUMENT COULD BE DONE
FOR COALITION STATE PENSION LAWS
SOLE PENSION PROVISION IN LIFE FOR THE POOR
This could well be done against the Coalition’s Pensions Bills 2010-2014 (flat rate state pension 2016)
I will ask further about the use of SI to amend those bills and stop NIL STATE PENSION FOR LIFE for so many men and women on and from 6 April 2016:
– to reverse rise in retirement age back to 60 for women and 65 for men lost since 2013;
– to stop the merging in 2016 of SERPs opt out with National Insurance contributions to calculate state pension amount, not done now;
– to stop housewives, widows and divorcees not getting a state pension as new claimants in 2016;
– to stop people with less than 10 years NI contribution or credit history getting any state pension from 2016, when now get some pension from 1 year NI record.
See why nil state pension at end of my petition, within my WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT section, at:

Here in Rugby we have many transient homeless central Europeans who camp out along old railway lines and other unoccupied land, some are refugees, they barely feature on the official horizon except as a “nuisance” Their plight is obvious, their suffering apparent, many speak no English, i try to visit the sites at least one a week to see if i can help them.
