Re: Having seen single persons billet think someone needs a BIG KICK IN THE BACKSIDE
Something not quite right about that article.
The MOD rents the properties from Annington Homes who bought them from the government. The MOD rents them even though 8,000 of them are unoccupied and some of the unoccupied homes have 'been judged to be in too poor a state to house tenants'? So if they are not fit to live in why the heck is the MOD paying out rent for them?
