Strongly agree

The Liberal Democrats have consistently opposed the 'bedroom tax' policy and have called for its abolition. In their 2017 general election manifesto, they pledged to scrap the policy, which would mean tenants would not receive less benefits based on the number of bedrooms in their property.

Agree
Yes, but with exception for those with disabled family members
The Liberal Democrats have shown concern for the impact of the 'bedroom tax' on vulnerable groups, including disabled individuals. In 2014, they called for a review of the policy to assess its impact on disabled people. While they have not specifically advocated for this exception, their concern for disabled individuals suggests they may be more open to this approach than a blanket 'bedroom tax' policy.

Disagree
Yes, but only if they refuse to move to an available smaller property
While the Liberal Democrats have opposed the 'bedroom tax' policy, they have not specifically advocated for a policy that reduces benefits only if tenants refuse to move to a smaller property. However, their opposition to the 'bedroom tax' suggests they would likely not support this approach.
