(not satire – it’s the UKIP!)
UKIP defector Douglas Carswell is a big supporter of the bedroom tax.
As a Tory MP, he even voted against exempting families with an ill or disabled child, war widows or widowers and foster parents who routinely use a room for foster care placements.
UKIP on the other hand are officially supposed to be against the bedroom tax.
So now Carswell has joined Farage, who has agreed to do the great big u-turn?
Is it the UKIP who are now FOR the Bedroom Tax – or Carswell who is now AGAINST it?
I think we should be told. Don’t you?:

I don’t think anyone is going to vote for or against UKIP on the basis of what they say is their position on the bedroom tax, do you?

Does anyone think this rank hypocrisy is just about Carswell? Of course not, it’s intrinsic to the whole Westminster government system and all three major parties. It’s time for a shake-up……

It’s Carswell who has done the U-Tur… Like a pink flamingo he has stretched his neck out and managed to get his head up his own arse 🙂

It tells you quite a lot about the Tory party that he was willing to vote against exemptions for families with a disabled child and for foster parents. AND that the Tory party mostly considered him a decent chap. Where do they find these heartless freaks?

It’s not a problem. He will vote in line with the directions from his party whip, whichever party he is in. Do the general public expect politicians to think about the bills they are voting on? That’s unreasonable, surely, when MPs only earn £70,000 a year.

They do not need to find them, as the heartless and/or inhuman freaks volunteer their services and vie with each other for preferment.

I wonder if the official UKIP opposition to the bedroom tax is based not on wishing to help people with disabilities but on a covert desire for the introduction of some version of Aktion T4 – the wholesale murder of people with disabilities.
