From daily The Morning Star in Britain:
Scotland unites to fight Con-Dem bedroom tax
Sunday 28 April 2013
Former Scottish Socialist MSP Tommy Sheridan was elected chair of the new All-Scotland Anti-Bedroom Tax Federation on Saturday.
The federation was formed at a meeting of local groups in Glasgow.
One of the newly elected vice-chairs, Fiona Jordan, told the Star: “It was a really good day – not just all fire and brimstone speeches, but real awareness that people need to be given hope and support.”
Luke Ivory of the Parkhead anti bedroom tax campaign in the east of Glasgow was elected secretary of the new Scotland-wide group.
Around 250 people attended the founding conference.
Speakers included SNP MSP Sandra White and former Scottish Co-operative Party chairwoman Mary Lockhart.

Yes, that is the government plan. The tax is not for rich people with mansions with many rooms.

It IS ridiculous. That is why there is big resistance against it. Like there was against the poll tax about 1990.
