"I should go mark out my spot for cardboard box home now." I have decidedly twitchy feelings about the present govts. proposed changes to social housing. They want to eliminate secure tenancies and replace them for fixed term tenancies which will require regular reviews to determine if you are 'needy' enough to still require your home. They also intend to cut social housing by 50%. Reading between the lines it seems they intend to complete the dismantling of social housing initiated by Thatcher. With more people out of work and on low incomes, where are they going to live?
