Is Douglas Carswell now against the bedroom tax? Or UKIP now for it? – Pride’s Purge

UKIP defector Douglas Carswell is a big supporter of the bedroom tax, writes Tom Pride in Pride’s Purge.

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?:

    He probably knows the tories are screwed in the next election and wants to keep his snout in the trough, so going for what party he thinks have a chance.

    To hell with loyalty where’s the trough? I’m getting hungry now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sold his soul for a three course meal from a UKIP donor

    Sorry but if it looks like a Tory it is a Tory, If it tastes like a Tory it is a Tory and if it smells like a Tory it is a Rat.

    See his true ideology on his blog and his patronising drivel about Women and the disabled,
