spent millions buying property for ' investment' (housing air thieves & general wasters) allowed (and still are) the undermining of local areas with totally inappropriate new build hovels, fiercly opposed by the communities. I had the misfortune to meet the cow & her lackies, knocking doors pre-election, nasty bunch. Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents? Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

Looking around me in Croydon it has been locked down for over 6 months more or less. The council has done well to maintain essential services. But whatever political persuasion they are, they will not be collecting revenue anything like they need. I think this must be widespread. There is no alternative to the government making good. And it is a type of poetic justice as they have been over-loading their responsibilities onto councils in the name of their flawed austerity policies. How have we benefitted? Not at all over 2 trillions in debt.
