  1. Hi Matey, did you see “ Panorama “ last night ? It was truly jaw dropping. An average sized 1970’s terraced house turned into 6 flats ! The landlord was charging £950 for each flat ! The took the previous owner around and she was almost in tears. Somebody was living in what was her old bathroom, somebody else living in her old kitchen ! Unbelievable .

    Regards John C. ( Tyrone )

      I haven't seen it yet John but can well imagine, having lived and breathed this stuff in my previous job. When I first started working in housing, Right to Buy had only just been introduced, and you could walk round estates in Blackburn and be able to pick out the 'bought' properties because they were the ones with the lovely new doors and windows. Fast forward 20/30 years and the exact opposite is the case!

      Absolutely no strategic thinking behind RTB, it was simply buying votes. I hope she's rotting in hell now.

      Yeah, me too. Just an exercise in buying votes. As was all the other privatisations. Look at the state of public utilities now. A shambles the lot of them. You must watch the programme, it’s an eye opener.

      Regards John C.
