    why just pick on just them? thousands of landlords are doing same thing. and people on these political sites have been saying so ever since this lot took over in westminster. rents rose and housing benefits became a hot topic of conversations all over the net. but instead of making landlords bring their high rents down, this govt decided to squeeze those with little and take even more off them.

    They are getting the housing benefit just like every other person that rents out homes, they also get some of our money from the eussr common agriculture policy, they didn’t ask for it the law means that they are treated like everyone else in the same situation, now the tories and just about every other mp will have their snouts in this particular trough one way or another, it’s another case of the steal from the poor give to the rich attitude of politicians these days.

    They are landlords, and deserve the money they get. Would it be better if they refused to rent out the properties? Why should they be any different?

      If the government hadn’t sold off most of the publicly owned housing these landlords, would not be making a huge profit from them, the money would be recycled back into the community, but political dogma of private good public bad has been the driving force for 40 years, we have seen exactly what that leads to with the outcome of outsourcing vital utilities in hospitals, having the private based internal market in the health service, and the huge growth in costs for gas electric water and travel due to privatisation.

      Most landlords are fucking pricks, who don’t lift a finger to keep their properties maintained, and expect their ridiculous rent prices to keep rolling in while they sit on there with their thumbs up their ass. Speaking a someone who recently won a court case against a cunt landlady who thought just that.

    I find it very strange when people say things like why should this family be any different etc ..
    They are the richest family in the world, married into the Rothschild family who started the banking system as we know it and run it to this day. They have one of the strongest armies in the world and are heads of the UK and many countries still, they own the land of the UK by some divine right they gave themselves, they have vast amounts of gold, diamonds, artwork, property etc …, the government works for them and has to be accepted by them before they can take power…The national anthem is not about the people of the empire but about them and how they should be saved…
    They plead poverty in media campaigns and PR stunts… The people of the UK pay to them millions of pounds every year to add to their wealth.
    So no, they are not like any other family.
    It’s nothing less than crazy that they are freely considered gods over everyone in this age we live in.
