    it's wrong when someone who didn't live there plans to use their mother's RTB discount to buy their house, taking away the secure tenancy the mother had. Who knows what will happen to her? care home anyone?

    Agree with the first part, but we both agreed on this, and I have lived there all my life.

    How does it benefit your mother again?

    You're not wrong to take advantage of the scheme, the whole scheme is wrong, it shouldn't exist in the first place.

    Problem though in that it does exist, and genuine people should not be subject to others people's anger on this forum because of how they feel about it.

    If you're so genuine please clarify how your mother benefits? A question asked countless times and still unanswered....

    "Right to buy process"

    And yet you had an expert sat in your mothers ( Not your ) lounge and didn't think to ask these pertinent questions?

    That seems rather foolish.

    You've dodged the question enough times, I'm now going to assume that you don't care about your mother losing her security and her right to adaptations and support. Shame on you, I hope she sees through your money grabbing scheme at her expense and throws you out.

    If you pulled your head out of your !!!, you'd realise I was just asking for anyone's personal experience on "right to buy" process.

    But once again you keyboard hogging lifeless posters just can't help yourself.

    I've given up here asking questions. Occasionally I'll pop back for a read and a laugh, but my time is limited as I get out in the real world and help real people.

    But to all of you thanks for your time and thoughts.
