    Councils not being able to re-invest money from sold council property - bad - got that ? - Lets move on.
    and finally being a political hypocrite - very very bad on any level no matter what party / parliament / assembly / council etc.
    It's slightly odd to be that arsy when someone asks you your opinion.

    One final question, do you think the discounts offered were too big, too small or about right?

    There's a few reasons to be skeptical of the policy

    Someone could not like selling council properties. Someone else might not think it was good value for money because of the level of discounts.
    Someone else might not mind the above, but might be against the policy of not allowing councils to rebuild 1:1

    I am more interesting in reading views about policy than politicians.

    Eric you dished out @arsey - and you got @rsey straight back at you.

    Do I think the discounts offered too big, small or about right - I dont know. Did the person I bought a house from offer me a discount - nope. Did the landlord I previously rented from offer me the chance to buy their house at a discount - nope again. In reality - council property included - there is no such thing as a discount - it just means that someone somewhere loses money (in this case - it was the council losing money). Alluding to Sludge's point - it was the wrong decision to not allow re investment from any money made.

    The issue with Raynor is that it now emerges that she this council house as her registered address - whilst living somewhere else - no allowed according to the rules.
