"Tenants rights are confined to the inside of property in regard to decoration." The first right of anybody is to defend themselves and their families from harm - tenants or not These doors were equivalent to hanging signs up and saying "To any right wing thus who happens to be in the vicinity - I am an asylum seeker - please feel free to vandalise my home". These are the figures of the homes with red doors again "Among people living at 66 of the red-door properties, it emerged that 62 were home to asylum seekers of 22 nationalities. Of the four non-asylum properties, two housed former asylum seekers and two were home to British citizens." Coincidence - sure it is!!! Whatever the intention of the company was, that is exactly the effect it had, and it is inexcusable to hide behind bureaucracy to defend it. The practice has been universally condemned as detrimental to the tenants - but defended by the valiant few here Jim Carroll
