Bless. And they were the only well off living in council houses, then?

But then the likes of you don't want anyone living in a council house
to
ever do well. Goes against everything you believe.

Those who 'do well' and live in a council house, hopefully can afford to
buy.

I have zero objection to anyone being allowed to buy the council house
they live in, if and when their circumstances change. At a true market
value, and that money going towards building more.

I don't have a problem with them getting a discount if they (their family)
have to continue to live in the property and can't churn it for a windfall
profit.

the 3 years restriction on re-sale has a zero missing off the end, IMHO
