Council Housing

I live in a council estate, I own my own flat. All the council housing in my area has life secure tenancies and have the right to buy. I think this is very unfair, you can pass your council housing to your partner, son or daughter. If you decide you want to buy, you can and safety in the knowledge that your council house is for life.
