not just a threat but a real risk that doesn't have to drag on through the courts to decide whether it will upset the tenants too much in losing their home.
Unfortunately Gary councils were given a lot of powers to deal with anti social behaviour, but from the news reports and my own experience on the whole they seem useless, despite the tenancy conditions they could use to evict these people they seem to pussy foot around, and come up with excuse after excuse.
