Want a council house? Get to the top of the waiting list? 06:32 - Oct 31 with 49475 viewsBenters

Get yourself over to Syria cause a bit of mayhem kill a few innocent people,and the good kind people of dear old Blighty will welcome you back in to the country with a new home.

Yet if you have been fighting for Queen and country you are left to struggle,how does that work then?

Did you mean to put a , rather than a .?

He probably got redundancy.

However in a parallel universe, if Corbyn had been in Government he would have got nowt because the country would be bankrupt paying to re-nationalise everything!


If only everything hadn't been sold in the first place.

This was over ten years ago. Nice little earner after living rent free for 16 years.

Whilst Bentz does make his point a little clumsily - and I too have doubts about this common "veterans are being ignored in favour of immigrants" theme - why has some pansy flagged it as abuse?

I left 20 years ago and got £15,000.

I also got an index linked tax free medical pension. That's the sweet part.

At the time yes. We had a 2 yr old son. A council house would have helped a lot.
We got a housing association place which did us well until we bought our first home.

A 3 bed victorian terrace house were I was living post Army was £45k. Now they are £275/300. It's crazy. Both my boys, soldiers, won't be able to buy unless we give them a chunk.

https://england.shelter.org.uk/housing_advice/council_housing_association/priori

"Extra priority if you have served in the armed forces

The council may give you some more priority on the waiting list if you are a:

former member of the regular armed forces
member of the regular or reserve forces who is suffering from a serious injury, illness or disability related to your service
bereaved spouse or civil partner who has to leave forces accommodation following your partner's death in service"

Vets ignored in favour of immigrants theme. Is this an actual thing? It appears to be true that there is/may be a potential policy draft outlining plans to aid ISIS targets and the like to steer them away from future influence but to post it on here as "It's on the papers" is misleading at best. It only takes a moment to Google and you will see the list of papers repeating it as a story taken as "reported in The Mail" and most are clear about that.

Every time this comes up some types immediately leap onto the 'but what about our forces?' theme. There are many innocent people on the street and the most vulnerable are supposed to receive priority help. Unfortunately this often doesn't happen and councils are quite cold when it comes to deciding who qualifies.

I cannot envisage a scenario that the OP seems eager to portray where ISIS fighters are somehow stepping off some boat and into social housing. Can you?

Welcome to the real world. You came out of the army with over 15k twenty odd years so obviously you wouldn't have been high priority for a council house.I'm surprised you got a housing association house tbh. Today you would have absolutely no chance.

Nice spelling error in "Hancock" You didn't mention the best goalkeeper who has ever played for Town - Roy Bailey.

Someone I know was in the forces for 16 years. When he came out he had over £170.000 in his pot for a house.

How does that work then?


I bet that pleased you.

Still nobody answered my question though have they?
