Just wanna take this opportunity once again to thank everyone for their support and help. You're all helping so much. I've been fighting this on my own for too long, so having you guys agreeing with me and my situation is a real boost.

This bearded prat will fight on!

Blaming immigrants for the waiting list when there's a shortage of housing is also pretty disgusting.

Shutting down the debate wont help. Its not 'disgusting'. The causes seem to be the stuff the right complains about like immigration combined with the stuff the left complains about like selling off council house stock and lack of housebuilding. The majority of us who don't see politics as some sort of tribalistic football team pursuit can see that there is right and wrong on both sides as with every other political issue. Good luck OP, hopefully common sense will prevail. Remain polite and respectful (as you have said you are doing) and don't give up. It might be that you just need to find the one person at the council who sympathises with your position and is prepared to help.

Thank you very much. This is EXACTLY how I see it as well. Surely that one person works at the council?!?! Fingers crossed.

Good on you. Most posts are helpfull. Some posters vere from the problem and want to take a politicised angle.

"A Bearded Prat" love it ,I hope you get what you want/deserve.

And I'm sure your kids must have schooling needs and such a move could disrupt their education? I know what you mean about being told you have to accept or be knocked off the list, it's bullying.

As for Council housing, my European neighbours moved on in, had their house adapted for 'special needs' and are now looking to buy it 'on the cheap'.

That makes my shit itch :), at least charge the ****ers full value....

Really sorry to hear all this JBizzle, probably a lost cause but if you signed a 25-year lease on your current property do you not have any legal standing to resist eviction?

blimey and I thought we had it bad both in our 70s and the most stressful move ever (and we have had a few) we are in now and beginning to settle down a bit just read your thread and can only say we have had it rather easy reading your blight.
can only wish you well and hope things work out for you.
it never ceases to amaze me just how NSC is like a band of brothers, boys and girls from every possible spectrum, and always there to help even if its only (particularly in my case with a bit of moral support)
be lucky

no whats really disgusting is the way sanctimonious tossers like you push an agenda without any thought on the effect it has on lots of people , though none on yourself obviously :wanker:

I have councillor Dawn Barnett on our side at the moment and she also agrees that common sense is just not being used in this current situation at present.

You have the best councillor on the whole of the council helping you so hopefully that will be of some comfort. Hopefully she's also got Tony Janio involved as well - the pair are not to be messed with.

I can't provide any advice as I've never been in your situation but I will say that when I was out of work and trying to claim council tax relief that the council employees I had to interact with were some of the biggest jobs worth, stupid, contradictory muppets, ignorant, unhelpful, lazy tossers on the planet - I feel your pain. They really couldn't hold down a real job ! They don't even know what their own website asks you to fill in when applying for something !!!!!!

In all fairness they have probably exacerbated the situation as they have to be housed by whatever local council they end up with. Immigration on the scales seen was never envisaged hence lack of social housing

Got any kind words for the posters bringing their immigration politics on to this thread?

It's ok. These things happen. We all feel strongly about different things.

No news just yet but I will of course update you all on here every step of the way.

Looking forward to it mate. Hopefully by then this whole mess will have been sorted and I will have started getting my life back on track again!

From what I'm hearing it's just 'one of those things', Biscuit. Nobody else has picked up on this fact ie Dawn Barnett etc.

Might have been a clause with them able to give notice etc but I haven't heard of one them before. When you finally talk to someone worthwhile, you'll probably get sorted, you need to put a formal complaint in about ASAP as you may guess they take their time responding and then it will reach the upper echelons of the council quicker than trying to talk to people outside the complaints system.
