Similarly - have a google of what happens to a school's deeds once it becomes a free school or an academy.

Yawn

 

A few nutjobs on Mumsnet.com does not qualify what you're angling at here.

 

You are flying closer to the Sun of Icke there, Icarus.

He is proud, I've heard he's lined up to 'star' in the next series of 'Single Father Rent Dodgers on Benefits and Proud' on Channel 5. Joking aside, I have no idea why Housing Benefit isn't paid direct to Landlord on a compulsory basis. I also have no idea why someone wouldn't electively choose this option, to remove temptation from themselves and keep a roof over their head? It's nobhead who should be castigated, not Nb, although I did think it odd to publicise it...You should have just posted 'Fuming!' and vented spleen privately via the inbox system :)

Millions of fat greedy landlords take money from vulnerable tenants and sleep well knowing they are struggling.

 

Disgusting.

 

They should give them their houses for free and let the tenants spend the housing allowance on ale and fags.

Isn't mumsnet full of bored angry wimminfolk in need of a good shag?

It's a double edged sword my food friend.

 

I see both sides.

 

Private landlords across town in central Blackpool are borderline criminal. Their tenants live in squaller as its the only thing they can afford. Single women with kids living with no hot water or central heating. Their properties left to rack and ruin for years meaning the place looks like a shanty town.

 

To me there needs to be more done to prevent rogue landlords operating.

 

On the flip side we had a family of scrotes in our house that did one leaving a wrecked house and owing thousands.

If rent was paid direct to landlords again then DSS tenants would go from being unwanted by many landlords who have decent properties but have been burnt in the past to wanted as they are the safest bet of all to get the rent on time

 

This would give DSS tenants some real buying power and drive the slumlords out of business

 

I would also pay gas, electric & water direct too. Give some food vouchers to make the difference up

 

That way it incentivises them to take jobs so they can earn money and spend it how they like.

 

At the moment there is little financial difference between claiming benefits and a NWM full time job

That's what fucked it right in the pussy for us.

 

When we first let our house out we got the rent direct in our bank from DSS. It was perfect. The lass we had in loved it that way. Everything was spot on.

 

Soon as she started getting her hands on the loot first that's when it all went tits up. Giving a totally skint nob jockey £600 in her hand just before Xmas could only spell disaster. And it did.

when it comes to peoples beliefs politics is as bad as religion.

Not quite Cheese but there are some complete nutjobs in both camps. At least political beliefs are in general brought about through your own convictions, not ones forced on you from the day you were born.

maybe not quite as bad but when someone decides they're tory/labour, they'll praise everything their party does and mock everything the other party does without even thinking about it as gullibly as religious people do with their chosen religion

Educate us....

 

I mean aside from setting up a business to run a "business" and handing over ownership of the deeds to that Business..

Middle ground, surely?
