    why not,

    now this statement of yours is very snobbish..

    I mean I'm a 'dolehopper' i assume, being on benefits and being a single mum and letting the state pick up my bills.. why would you feel that i am not suitable to live next door to Mr and Mrs Carruthers, just based that i don't work......

    Far be it from you to hope for a nice area to live in, Mupette. According to C_Mababejive and his ilk, you don't deserve it. Vile snobs the lot of them.

    In battery hen Britain,where we have the crummiest,smallest and most expensive homes in Europe if not the vworld, the close proximity of our fellow cage birds does cause concern.

    Move then. Far too many people whinge and whine about this country whilst never lifting a finger to try to make it a better place. If you don't like it, leave.

    This is all pure snobbery - what a disgusting thread this is.

    Teddy Ruxpin, I do hope you get lumbered with the tiny percentage who are scumbags - and the worst of the worst move into these houses on 'your' road.

    Hope you end up living next door to a house full of drug dealing skag heads who are running a brothel who make constant noise and steal your washing off your line...Now that would serve you right for your snobbery and assumptions.................Just don't come on here looking for sympathy..

    i can see both sides of the coin ... so too speak on this
    the ops thread is a little direct and may be should have been worded a lttle more gently ,but this is a forum so bring it on ;why shouldnt he be concerned when hes worked so hard too pay for his property ; he doesnt want too move , he doesnt want too lose money on his house and is probably genuinely concerned at his future; on the other hand people have too live somewhere regardless of race colour sexuality creed ..purple spots green stripes or any other excuse you can find too make yourself feel better than others ; basically we are all the same ... yes that may shock you but were are ; we were all born naked and took that 1st gasp of breathe and we are all alive and equal ; so just stop being so horrible and listen too the dilema that anguishes him .. if you dont like it ... move on too the next thread ... try a bit harder too understand a different point of view .... you dont have to like or understand what he says

    It has nothing to do with your suitability or you as a person.

    Its about how a capitalist society should work and its about how those with vested interests try to pick the best bits that suit them and to socially engineer other bits for their own ends.

    For example,we have champagne socialist Mr Prescott,the person who brought us the criminal and iniquitous Pathfinder scheme.

    He socially engineered it so that social tenants and private owner occs (OO) could live together and in many cases,the OO flogged their tripes out to pay a mortgage whilst many social tenants are under no pressure or indeed no obligation to do similar but nonetheless,can have the same house and live in the nice area.

    The Capitalist idyll would be that you aspire,you work hard,you are successful and therefore you reap rewards.

    For example,when i was a snotty kid living on my council estate,when i went to primary school and mummy picked me up at the gate at chucking out time, i turned right towards the council estate whilst others trotted left with mater and pater toward suburbia and the nice semis.

    I didnt feel resentment. It was the order of the day,as it always has been and how it always should be until calculating baffoons such as Prescott interfered.

    You see the system was that you had some admiration for those who had striven and attained and you wanted to be like them too.

    If howver i could also turn left at the gate and mummy had been given a nice 3 bed semi with all mod cons all paid via HB etc..the message i would receive is that there was no real need to strive. Equally, my respect and appreciation of my nice new free home and my neighbours would diminish.

    Did you know that under Prescotts Pathfinder scheme which sought to socially engineer the situations of which we speak,that OOs who had worked hard and bought their homes,had them compulsorily purchased,were thrown out on the street with meagre compensation for their home and the land sold to private developers to build mix and match private/SH developments?

    How does that sound?
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    I'm shocked that you would say this on a public forum.

    I'm on benefits, single mother too, oh and i live in social housing, and have my rent and council tax paid.

    What do you think of that..

    I hope you're not daring to breathe our oxygen too! ;)
