Keep dreaming.:D

The trouble with liars and fantasists like you is you can't bow down graciously when you've been caught out.

NO WAY could you rent a flat in Chelsea for just over £300 a month!:rotfl: Even IF your rent was subsidised the amount you'd receive would not be enough to rent a place in Chelsea.

According to the following report the government DO NOT subsidise rents for key workers - unless they're renting/part buying into a housing association - of which there are very few in Chelsea:rotfl: where rents can be as much as £3,000 a week!:p

So you BRIT are a LIAR!

And accept that you will NEVER be a homeowner. You have been hanging around MSE like a bad smell for years - and STILL your wishes haven't come true.

Don't you know when you're out of the running?

Thought I'd bump this up for gormless Brit.

He can check out the link, it PROVES that he could not afford Chelsea rents even IF he had help from the government.

LIar liar liar.

This is copied form the Keyworkers Housing Gude:


Key worker housing: the issue explained

As property prices soar in UK, those on average incomes are excluded, including hundreds of thousands of vital public sector workers.
Housing for key workers is fast becoming a major problem. Those on average incomes are excluded, including hundreds of thousands of public sector workers vital to the well being of the country.
The cause of the problem is simple: in a country obsessed with property owning, house prices have been increasing sharply for decades, while earnings - particularly in the public sector - have risen modestly at best.
At the same time, the number of homes set aside for social housing is decreasing. Although around 25,000 new homes for rent are being built by housing associations each year, about 50,000 council homes are lost each year to the right to buy policy.
This means that the dwindling supply of affordable housing has become increasingly rationed for the most needy. For example more than 70% of new social housing tenants claim housing benefit.
Teachers, nurses, social workers, policeman and other essential staff - collectively known as key workers - earn too much to qualify for social housing. But most earn too little to afford to buy a home by themselves in an increasing number of property hotspots nationwide.
Someone on an annual salary of £20,000 could get a mortgage of £80,000 at a push but the average house price is now well over £100,000 and climbing. In an increasing number of areas, average house prices are more than £200,000.
Key workers are therefore faced with a number of undesirable options, they can: rent privately at unsustainable levels; share housing; commute long distances to work; or choose a more lucrative profession.
There is growing evidence that housing problems are a major factor in the recruitment crisis in both education and the health service. For example, the areas where teacher shortages are most acute correlate strongly with the areas where house prices are highest.
The issue has helped campaigners get housing back on the political agenda. They point out that government plans for education and health will be undermined by more staff shortages without increased investment in affordable housing.
The government's response has been to launch the £250m starter home initiative, which will help house 10,000 key workers over the next three years.
Most of those helped will get so-called shared ownership homes provided by housing associations, an idea that works out at about three-quarters of the cost of buying a home outright. Under such schemes, key workers typically pay a subsidised rent to the housing association for half of the home and a mortgage on the other half.
Campaigners have dismissed the starter homes initiative as a "drop in the ocean" and pointed out that more than 40,000 people apply for shared ownership schemes each year in London alone.
The government is now turning to the planning system to ensure that more affordable housing is provided on new private developments. This could also help but is unlikely to solve the crisis.
Accommodation problems for key workers in the south-east are therefore likely to get worse unless, or until, the property market goes into decline.





So come on, Brit, tell us HOW the government are paying your rent in Chelsea? You're not in social housing or housing association, you're not part-buying/part renting - so how are you managing to pay Chelsea rents? The government are not paying part of your rent!

Pinnochio - speak up!

What happened to this board?

16 people thanking a post that says rent is dead money?

Will I get 16 thanks if I suggest paying for public transport, a taxi, or indeed, any other service is dead money because you haven't taken a stake in the taxi firm?

I thought this board was the more moderate. Seems not! Not everyone has a deposit sloshing around in the bank, ready and able to buy. Not everyone simply thinks "oh, I know, I'll choose to rent over buying". But it seems many of you think this is the case.

It's not dead money. It pays for a house for you and your family.

People are even formatting their text in large font and bold, JUST to get their insult across! And how many new accounts are signing up to state the same thing!?

Something's really wrong with the man. If he seriously thinks anyone could be bothered to hound HIM on the net he's more delusional than he comes across! As if Nollag is that interested the stupid idiot!

Brit has tripped himself up big time about living in Chelsea, and he's trying to worrm and wriggle...what a repulsive little man he is

Nollag we are now on 17 fake MSE members which you control.

Don't you think it is a little unhealthy to be possing as 17 different people, posting insults and using your fake accounts to thank yourself.

You have issues and also maybe a gratification/popularity complex.

WOW! HAHAHA, you certainly wouldn't say London is in Kensington...... Doesn't make sense does it.

to the same extent the Wirral, a peninsula (a narrow strip of land projecting into a sea or lake from the mainland) is not in Wallasey.......

So you will find that, Oxton, Hoylake, Wallasey and West Kirby are all places on the Wirral Peninsula.... :silenced:
