Sub-letting of council accommodation. Why are so many mothers on welfare who still have active sexual relationships with the father of their child, are not living in the flat or house allocate for the

[SubLetFun]

I know of at least five relationships where this is happening.

The fathers are still, actively in the children?s lives, and there is no apparent relationship problem, but they are living apart.

The mothers live part or most of their lives at the parents? (council) houses and in some cases the fathers do as well, so that they can sublet their council houses. I have not reported them yet. Should I?

[SubLetFun]

I don't know if it was EuroDisney or Florida, I think it was done by train so must be the former. Nails are very important to four of the women, it's just their fashion. CentreParks is also great for their children as they get to do lots.
I suppose if they are able to do so and they are being so defended, then it must be fine and I will leave it. I don't want to betray trust but there are hospitals in need of machines while this is going on. Four of the five couples are not attempting to find employment in any way. Up to them, I suppose.

Welfare Bingo!

Holidays, 'Designer' clothes, BMWs,

I just need a 50" plasma for a line and a pony for the full house.

[MissyMooandherBeaverofSteel]

5 seperate people, who are all so brilliant at hiding it, have all told you that they are subletting their council houses and staying with their parents in large houses while they fund their eurodisney trips from their ill gotton gains.

Suuuuuure they did.

[SadGiantPanda]

Goady fuckery is too much effort. I think I need a nap even thinking about it.

[archilles]

Don't report please unchartered. I am having fun.

Well, you're fucked then.

Do the children have spray tans?

[SubLetFun]

Yes, unfortunately, there would be little point in having the money without them bragging about it, would there? Perhaps you're not playing the game well enough. Why is it inconceivable?
I can only state what I see and am being told. I'll complete your Bingo and let you know about their drug dealing with young children in tow, but it wouldn't be believed.

[Catchingmockingbirds]

Plasma tv has already been mentioned compos :o

[SugariceisaGoodEgg]

Do you follow these people around OP or do they also tell you about the drug dealing?

[SubLetFun]

No, if the children wanted to have a spray tan like their mother, it would be understandable, wouldn't it. Children like to copy what they see.

[SadGiantPanda]

Horse riding has also been mentioned. We've got a full house! Possibly even in a respectable town.

[SubLetFun]

I am told by someone another family member who despairs of it, sadly.

Plasma tvs are very last year composHat. We prefer LED now, so we can hang them on the wall. Lighter you see. That way we can have chardannay-jaydee and tyler-kanen-lager's wii, gameboy, ipad and x-box on the media centre without any fuss.

We do horses here, not ponies.

[SubLetFun]

What is wrong with them wanting a plasma tv. They like footballers and what they have, it isn't a crime, is it?

[UnChartered]

LetsBunUf is another

This is a wind up, just not a very funny one.
Unfortunately it's been done to death by people who aren't making everything up.

Tax the rich more, then. Tax banking profits by a further 1% and we'd not need to shut down another A&E in this country. Tax private sector letting. Stop blaming poor people for emulating the values they see the well-off displaying. If you have a problem with those values, address the source of them rather than the symptom

[archilles]

Well, no self respecting benefit single/not single/part time cock lodging fraudster doesn't do drugs you see.

It's just that when cinzano-rose started the ritalin and we accidentally filled our free prescription twice it kind of went from there really. You can't blame us really, seeing as the free school dinners don't give the kids chips any more and they come home hungry and need more and more fruit shoots which all cost money.

I wonder why it wouldn't be believed? Sudden odorous waft from the bull's field.

[edwardsmum11]

I'd report as people are desperate for these properties.

[Binkybix]

Only read up to page 3, but thought that I would add that this is a thing that happens, and not made up (although don't know about these specific families obviously)

Some councils have specific teams that investigate his sort of subletting and take people to court to get the houses back to return to the 'pool'. My friend works on a team like this.

[SubLetFun]

Sparklyboots, there are plenty of hard working people who are in council accomodation/private housing who don't scam anyone and live straight lives. Posting about extremes at the other end of the scale doesn't justify it at the poorer end.

[Binkybix]

But I do see the wider point re other classes exploiting housing and others people's lack of it for financial gain and the parallels here.

[SubLetFun]

Thank you binkybix. I am astounded that this is going on too. It isn't a myth.

[Sparklyboots]

Yes I know there are, I'm one of them - did you read my earlier post? I've got a good job and DP is self-employed but we can afford neither market rents or buying in our area. I don't begrudge other poor people making money out of what they can. I think if you find it all so terrible, fight the real enemy - the well off making money out of our unregulated, out of hand housing market.

[Sparklyboots]

And it's not the extremes at the other end of the scale, it's the normal, legal status quo. £850 month for a tiny one bedroom flat round my way unless you're in social housing. That's the NORM not the extreme - it's absolutely exploitative, too.
