You could not make this up - 2

I just worry that a similar situation might be seen in Britain in the future
I think that is already happening JBR. Old people having to give up their council homes because they have too many bedrooms. Who will be moved in I wonder?
Hold on. Why should a single person or a couple live in accommodation which is way too big for them? I'm not advocating moving district, but surely if there were a suitable house of flat within a couple of hundred yards, then surely it makes sense to relocate them, especually if the new accommodation was freshened up before the move.
Some of these elderly people have lived in the same property for many years and they don't take well to being moved around at their age. But that wasn't really my point. My point was that we all know who qualifies for the most points on the council housing list. So some old girl who has paid her rent for maybe forty or fifty years would be kicked out so that a top priority refugee family can be moved in - for free.

I know I am in a minority these days but I still like to show some respect towards our elderly who fought and lost through war and I feel that letting them live their final years in peace in their home is the very very least we can do.

I will always put our elderly first over any immigrant, asylum seeker, gypo, foul mouthed chav or 4x4 family.

You must have missed this bit:

"..., and Ms Keller’s flat is one of only two owned by the local municipality. It is not social housing and Ms Keller is a rent-paying tenant."

I confess I hadn't seen that.
In which case, surely the council has no right to kick her out unless she in arrears of paying rent or is a nuisance.
If this sort of thing continues, I can foresee Herr Merkel being unemployed before too long.

"....the council has offered to helps Ms Kellar blah blah...."

Another half story designed to inflame. She will likely be sponsored by anti-immigration bods too.

Oh, "half story" is pushing it a bit. There are two sentences that are unbiased.

And yes, you can make stuff up. Hacks do it all the time.

You seem so convinced that all these stories are made up that you fail to notice that these things are actually happening.

Not too seriously but I do like to wind him up as much as possible.

Now now, should you really be winding up a man who has serious mental health issues?

OK, winding him up is fun. :mrgreen:
