This is insane

[horsesforcourses1]

I just heard that a friend of a friends DD has just got a brand new 3 bedroomed council house, she?s single, no children and 20 years old !!!!

Bollocks.

No she didn't :)

Tell me about it OP my brothers cousins sisters friend knows someone who got a free TV when she asked for a house just for asking politely.

I doubt it very much. My XH has just got a 1 bedroom flat. Despite him having 2 children that go to stay.

Funnily enough I can quite believe it.

A friend of mine has a 2 bed house, lovely big garden, single professional.

They are lying to you.

Certain parts of the UK have far less demand for Housing Association / Council accommodation than others. Perhaps the friend of a friend etc lives in one of these areas.

My single brother (50 yo) got one (2 bed) very easily in the NE.

Where is it?

Err why would I lie? She showed us the photos and was all busy asking everyone if they had any furniture. I was absolutely fuming. She was offered a flat first but turned it down and then was offered the house.

...And I am Marie of cunting Romania.

No.
If it is brand new, there must be a demand for three bedroom social housing in that area...for FAMILIES.

I don't believe this either.

It's located

24 Unicorn Court
Lollypop Lane
Candy Land

And also, the council don't build new houses, and haven't done for quite some time.

The bloke up the road his cousin got a mansion with a swimming pool from the council, true fact

Oh I love friend of friend tales.

Do tell more.

They did here....because there was a severe lack of three bed properties.
Two familes I know, with mum and dad and three kids apiece had both been crammed into 2 beds for years...both those families were relocated into the new ones when they were finished. That is why they were built.

If it's true, then there are reasons that you are unaware of that make her deserving of this.

People do not get housing willynilly.

HTH

Sounds like my ugly uncle Ned usual. The council actually pay HIM to stay to stay in his mansion.

Oh usual, we must have mutual friends of friends.

I heard about him as well.

they do build new ones, if op means Housing association, which is what local authority properties are called.

Well that?s exactly the point, I can?t believe it either. It?s in Peterborough. Why would she lie about it?

I got a helicopter you know. Just for having a baby. I'd have got 2 if I was forrin

Stop slitting hairs. When people say 'council house' these days they usually mean housing association house or just a house paid for by the state. People often do not know the difference. It's irrelevent.

Anyway, if it's true then someone need their arse kicking. Ridiculous.

Our council and I mean council not housing association have been building recently and have just finished allocating a whole area of them and are almost finished the next phase.
