And if they aren't working, I don't have a hope of getting any of the money back. Attachment of earnings can be implemented against working ppl, but the court puts a stay on it if their annual income is under a certain amount. Third party attachments can take money out of their bank accounts.. But if there's nil balance, I get... Nil. That tenant in particular, apart from her attitude towards her landlord and rent arrears, presented well. If people knew they'd have to repay their rent arrears, they wouldn't maybe let them accumulate, by staying until the last minute in a property.

No mention of the amount of arrears accrued by the time it got to the point of eviction..which can ( depending on court lists) easily get to 6 months! And yes, I am a single parent ( 3 kids), and still have to find the mortgage payments somehow til the non-paying tenant eventually goes. Typically the tenant will wait until the very last minute to leave. Meantime the landlord has lost even more rent and forked out for court fees. I saw the tenant who thought it was hilarious to retain the keys to the property, thus adding to the landlords costs, as he had to then call a locksmith out to change the locks. The same tenant was then sobbing down the benefit office...

New arrivals to our shores have the old style ethic, but no reservations about latching onto the welfare state like limpets, no matter what they may think about other aspects of our culture and society. This gives them an enormous advantage as they have access to both the welfare system and their old style clan and kinship systems.bobonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-46846208331963143262014-04-12T15:55:10.821+01:002014-04-12T15:55:10.821+01:00We did not need a program to tell us what is alrea...We did not need a program to tell us what is already general knowledge, but two things stood out in this.<br />Firstly, children, they are the shield by which no one can touch them, either single mums with never any fathers around or never ending large families.<br />Secondly the "refugees" coming from places that have no welfare no jobs, disease, no homes other than a tin hut, it did not take them long despite in most cases never working to start demanding we the taxpayer do more for them, I had to turn the program of after one of them started demanding they were treated better having after twelve years never contributing sod all. wiggianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-3742666527826136702014-04-12T15:34:34.224+01:002014-04-12T15:34:34.224+01:00In the days before Benefits one of my great-aunts ...In the days before Benefits one of my great-aunts had ten kids to the man she married and the whole family lived in a three bedroomed rented house.
