I WISH to respond to Esther McVey’s letter on "bedroom tax" (Globe Mailbox, November 7, 2012).

I have been in my home for 32 years. I only had one child as I knew I wasn’t mentally or financially able to have more.

If I had carried on having more children I wouldn’t be facing being forced out of my home now.

I was on a waiting list and lived in squalor before I was offered this home.

Esther McVey states "give new families a chance and make way for those who need more space."

Well, I have been offered to buy my home at £75,000 reduction if I had the money.

How is that freeing-up houses for families? I rely on my garden for my dogs and my mental well-being.

Yet Esther McVey thinks nothing of pushing me and others out of their homes and into one-bedroom boxes, because we live on our own, already lonely and having to cope as best we can.

She and her Government are nothing more than social bullies.
How she has the gall to call herself Minister for Disabled People is a joke.

I'm disabled, yet I am being forced from my home. Who says my home is too large for my needs?

I would like to invite Esther McVey to step inside a "social" house.

We live like rabbits in a hutch to begin with. My whole house would probably fit in her bathroom.

Thanks to the editor for giving me a voice.
