Council Tax Bill.
It’s a double whammy in Salford for some people, as the
bedroom tax kicks in quickly follows the council tax beifit reform, this will
hit the unemployed, disabled, OAP’S, single parent families and even people who
are employed part and full time who only earn just a little to get by, a freedom
of information reveals to true extent of how hard the second bite is, a full constituency
ward breakdown can be found below,
Broughton 2,112
Langworthy 1,961
Little Hulton 1,778
Barton 1,419
Irwell Riverside 1,389
Winton 1,229
Walkden North 1,220
Ordsall 1,219
Kersal 1,068
Pendlebury 1,032
Weaste and Seedley 921
Swinton North 855

Walkden South 415
Claremont 313

Of the 20,017 of Salford people affected 16,139 are in band
A. A lot of people in Salford depend on this benefit, take for instance residents
who live on their own in full or part time employment can ask for a single
persons council tax reduction and 25% deducted as part of the benefit, In band A it would contribute around £250 off
the overall council tax bill, as part of
the reform people can no longer claim this and now expected to pay the full tax
or face jail, or even have local authority’s hacking in to your wages, if you
are unemployed things go from bad to worse you are expected to pay around £80 a
month, or the same punishment face jail or be deducted from your benefits.
Also some of these residents affected will also be hit by
the bedroom tax in an earlier report produced by Salford British National Party
about bedroom tax and just who was affected (Click link)
you can see the top wards in this report are almost the same, example Langworthy
X 800 affected by bedroom tax, 1,961 affected by council tax benefit reform as
the list goes on, just compare it.
Salford British National Party spokesman said “It’s
shocking, how are people expected to live? Labour are kicking the arse out of
the Salfordians and getting away with it, it’s time to revolt, it’s time to just
think about who you vote for, Labour are no good for Salford, get rid of them,
even if you don’t vote BNP just vote for someone bar Labour.
“Salford BNP against the cuts would like to hear your views
on this matter, we would like you to join the resistance to removing Labour, and
if you care for your city then you will take this option, to get involved.
“Do not let Labour scape goat by blaming the Tory’s, its
Labour who have been at the core roots of the problem, it’s their fault, they
created the monster who is in power today, Labour need to held accountable for their
actions to the leading of the mess.”
Whatever you’re political afflictions it doesn’t matter, the
enemy is the same, we have one thing in common, LABOUR OUT. So contact Salford
British National Party, before it’s too late. email Salford@bnp.org.uk or write to BNP PO Box
