NJ, i thought it was just me who thought this outrageous. If we get thrown out of our property, for the reasons suggested, where would we go. I would be appalled if someone suggested it, and we can't all be home owners, much as we would have liked that. Same as having your own home, which you scrimped and saved up for the deposit, and paid for, then informed that as you are elderly it would be a good idea to downsize, so another younger family can get on the property ladder. Some do downsize, but that would be their choice. And the idiot who suggested it, Tessa Jowell, and a bunch of left wing thinkers, what on earth happened to freedom of choice.
