If you do find an honest way, would you pass the info on to the thousands and thousands that have already been waiting for years and years?
Thanks in advance  |

If you find out, I do hope someone points you in the direction of the authorities, or in the direction of those who have been waiting longer. |

Why don't you just get off your backside and get a proper job then and rent a decent place.
Rest of us have to wait our turn, like us in unsuitable housing with 2 kids despite working paying tax for 30 years between us we can't get a council house
Always worked, never claimed benefits (other than child benefit/credit) Had a nice private rented flat but owner wanted it back (fair enough it was their property) and I couldnt find anything since so am stuck in a tiny place.
Because I work I am way down the list!
You get 7 points here for being a drug addict, alcoholic, or in the bad-back brigade etc, and just 10 points for being born and bred in the town!!! |

by claimin you're:
to lazy to work
disabled (from what iv witnessed being lazy qualifises)
from another country,in addition you can then claim benifits for several wives and children)
pregnant/got some one pregnant under the age of 18
a constistant drug or alchol abuser
however if you are none of the above and if you go to work, pay your taxes including all those wonderful stealth taxes, look after your children,respaect the law and oh was born here then I suggest you use your hard earned cash buy some bricks and start building.
Of course with this weather you should invest in a boat. |

| I think you are all being a bit harsh. He only wants somewhere to live. The best way i found is to rent privately on a short lease then a month before the lease ends go to the council and tell them you are about to become homeless. Go to a doctor and tell him your situation is making you depressed and you are terrified of being kicked out on the streets. The council have a duty to provide accommodation. This will probably be a grotty bed and breakfast for up to a year. After that they will give you a bedsit or possibly a one bedroom flat in a place nobody else wants. This is the quickest way but it is certainly not easy. Maggie Thatcher should be publicly executed for this and the thousands of other problems she caused. |

What, for trying to break the social "the state owes me" attitude so many people seem to have.  |

| For selling off council homes and doing nothing to stop mass immigration. This is the only country in the world that puts foreigners before its own people. The state doesn't owe us a living but they do owe us the chance to earn a decent living. A minimum wage of £5 per hour is useless when a basic one bedroom flat costs £120,000+. If the minimum wage was increased to £10 per hour a million people would go out tomorrow and get a job. People should be encouraged to work by making work worthwhile. The government could easily recover the cost of the benefits system by stopping all foreign aid and not getting involved in American wars. |

1. Move to a third world hellhole.
2. Get citizenship of that country.
3. Renounce your UK citizenship.
4. Come back to the UK and claim asylum and housing.
5. If they give you any bother, threaten that you'll call them racist/ Islamophobic/ etc.
6. Move into your new house. |

The world condensed into one paragraph.
I would sugest that life is slightly more complex than that, you know.  |

| Yes life is more complex than that but my point is every Englishman has the right to a decent home and a good job with fair pay. Nobody should wait years for a council home or feel the need to cheat the system. There will always be a minority who will not work under any circumstances but the majority of these so called scroungers don't work because it is not worth it. I believe if the unemployed/sick were offered jobs paying £10 per hour 90% of them would take it. |
