@floofloof it *is* a very bad look and now she's resigned.

Ah, but could you programme the timer to record while you were out?!

Read a bit more into it. Her tenants' rental contract came to an end, and they were given the option of staying on while the house was put on the market. They chose to move out, and the house wasn't sold, and it was put back on the rental market.

It's a four-bed house, and the market rate for a three-bed flat in that area is almost £3500. So £4000 isn't out of sync with the area.

They weren't evicted. The rent is ridiculous because it's London.

Swindon Borough Council has a housing company, not sure if that is close to what you mean?

@G4Z I'm sure he's been on the receiving end of many jobs. Ahem. Yuck.

@glimse @G4Z

Depends on your definition of 'celebrity', I guess.

They're both pure as the driven snow.

@RubberDuck while I view all mainstream reporting on Labour with a bit of scepticism, I don't doubt these are actual conversations being had.

"What's in it for me?" is an attitude that is so ingrained, I'm not sure how long it will take for it to change - and for politicians to stop trying to appeal to it.
