Despite earlier reassuring MPs that legislation would not be rushed through on this issues, the Prime Minister insisted that plans to change Housing Benefit would not be scrapped.
At a stormy PMQs, Labour Leader Ed Miliband accused the Coalition of introducing measures that would leave thousands of people at risk of losing their homes and called the policy a 'shambles'.

So much for the Prime Minister's promises during the election to protect the vulnerable and most needy.
