Rejected petition We the undersigned challenge Ian Duncan Smith to live on £53 a week for a year.
More details
Ian Duncan Smith reckons he could live on £53 a week having to pay normal household bills and underoccupancy and council tax. We want him to put his money where his mouth is and prove it for at least a year see if he can. We want the so called bedroom tax and new council tax rules back to the way it was as he is creating more poverty by doing this.
