New Labour filth: Removes old people to house labour workers.

Hat tip Man of the woods.

A council official with responsibility for helping the homeless has evicted elderly and frail tenants from their cottages and moved into one of them at a low rent with a fellow senior housing officer.

Council officers decided to let the vacated sheltered housing in a prime city-centre spot to their colleagues and advertised the places on the council’s intranet without seeking the approval of elected councillors, a Times investigation has found.

Now Norwich City Council is examining how Kristine Reeves, a £52,000-a-year head of neighbourhood and strategic housing, has become the tenant of a one-bedroom bungalow with a £47-a-week rent...

The Times approached Ms Reeves, who lectures at national housing conferences on her specialist topic of “sub-regional excellence”, as she emerged from her cottage, which still has a handrail by the front door.

She co-wrote a paper last year recommending that the council’s executive demolish the 25 homes set amid tree-shaded lawns and replace them with 100 high-density flats and houses after – as she described it – “decanting” the inhabitants.

Instead of paying a security company to preserve the buildings from squatters and vandals until they were demolished, officials unilaterally decided to let them to employees...

She declined to say why she was living there or to discuss the house she bought, saying:

“I’m very surprised that you’re looking into my personal details like that.”

**After all who are we the mere plebs and proles to question a New Labour Commissar. Oh the nerve of it...

Asked if the homes could have been used for the homeless, she said:

“I can’t see how it would have helped because it wouldn’t be permanent housing.”

**Never mind the question of why some New Labour champagne socialist on a pittence of £52K a year moves into a subsidized home, after "decanting" the original residents. I am sure that those who have no roof over their head will be happy at her explination that they could not be housed as it is not permanent.

Olive Frost, 78, who has had a heart bypass, said she missed going to the shops now that she has been moved to a housing complex with a poor bus service on the outskirts of the city.

Ida Hall, 89, whose late husband was a prisoner of war, said: “I didn’t want to leave. I liked my little bungalow. It was lovely.” Abigail Davies, the head of policy at the Chartered Institute of Housing, declined to comment on the specifics but said: “A bit of transparency doesn’t go amiss.”

The Labour-run council said Ms Reeves had moved into the home two months ago. It said: “An investigation is now taking place into the process by which units were allocated to staff.”

Housing officials evict elderly and move into their homes

£52,000-a-year chief is paying £47 a week rent. Kick out Oap's to sink estates for the council Labour filth to take over the homes. 

Some animals by the name of Kristine Reeves are most definately more equal than others who's late husband was a POW in WW2.
Never mind champagne socialism this is one better, now the utter contemptable cunts are kicking out the OAP's to house their fellow "class warriors". Fuckers like these should be "decanted" themselves to the dole office minus their index linked pension. 

New Labour the party of theft, graft, duplicity. Rotten from the one eye'd cunt of a PM who no fucker has voted for right down to the drink driving, stealing, OAP house decanting cunts in the council offices. Scum one and all.

New Labour - "I want them all dead. I want their family's dead. I want their houses burnt to the ground. I want to go there in the middle of the night and piss on the ashes."
