Liam Byrne MP, Labour’s Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary, said on reports
that 50,000 are facing eviction over the bedroom tax:

“These appalling figures prove once and for all that while this government
stands up for a privileged few, a debt bombshell is exploding for a
generation of people.

"While the nation’s millionaires get a huge tax cut, thousands more now
confront arrears and eviction from which they’ll never recover. This is
final proof as if we needed it, that the hated tax must be dropped and
dropped now.”
