Families face eviction from Metropolitan Police property

[mertle]

This the shocking side effect of cuts. Many have been made redundant now enforced eviction notice.

No wonder morale low in police. I would fully think this similar issue up and down country with armed forces and other police authorities.

Turf people out on street is inhumane.

That's how the capitalism works, you build up your share margin (police state) then cull it when it's done it's job, enforcing a false power hold on the people. The cuts in the police force was a plan from the outset once the governmental systems had taken over the everyday workings of the enforcement on our own streets, for one I'm not one bit bothered as all these days the police can only do is harass people, write tickets or just be plain useless in knowing where what they should be doing from the bottom down.

As for budgets.. as the police goes they over spend on everything, there cars, personal staff numbers, salaries of the top management ... I could go onwards. Where could saving on costs would one like to guess?.... for one look at the top gets & what they do to the low live grunt PC does & gets it will make your mind spin. The police force as a whole has got too big & is too bloated to start with there where the problem starts + ends in many peoples book that comes to mind where as if they did something correct for once maybe we the people that pays there wages would see them in a better light. If all they the "police" can do is follow the government down the path of total rule of there employers (tax payers/pay masters) lives rather than be out there looking for the bigger important criminals out in the world there not much reason for them to have place in today's world.
They either protect people rights & from other illegal activities + criminals or enforce the illegal governmental leadership which case they should be dissolved & replaced end of. It about time some of these policing members get taken down a peg or two back to real life from some of there power trips they have in making law up as they go when they see fit, as for the families there's always going to a loser in any game, they are it this time.

What a load of herbal instigated hogwash.

From the article...

Residents were first told about the move in 2006 but it was not until last year that they were told about the 31 December deadline. That was later extended, she said......

....A Met Police statement said: "The land had been leased to Crown Housing Association to provide non-permanent accommodation for their own tenants who hold short-term leases.

"The lease to Crown Housing Association expired in December 2012.

So, they have all known for 7 years that their leases on these homes could never be permanent due to the unavoidable fact that their own landlord, the Met, is not the freeholder. They have been aware for some months of the date they would have to move out. And rather than deal with life as it is, once again we find people who think the State owes them a living simply digging in their heels and hoping reality will go away and leave them alone.

Possibly, but that's for another thread. However, I'm pretty sure that we wouldn't be in this poor financial situation if the last (Labour) government hadn't spent all the money whilst they were in power and sold our gold at the bottom of the market.......

Painful truths, although you wouldn't think so judging by what some folks around here choose to believe regardless...

But its the Government's job to give them something for nothing and to ensure they don't have to do anything in return including it seems this.

Are you sure that it's not the Met that own the freehold. It seems to be the Met that is selling it. They leased it to Crown Housing Association, and that lease has expired.

Up to 21 families are being evicted from a property in north London which is owned by the Metropolitan Police.

The decision appears to have been taken in 2006, which is before any financial problems were meant to have surfaced.

more inclined to think its over 30 years neoblistic policies got us in mess. When you sell your infrastructure rent it back at cripling overheads then in time it bites you back. We reaping this stupid policy got us into where we are now. We still got parasites following this utopa mantra. Labour was just thatcher in trousers like cameron is today. Our demise was excelerated by banks thieving hands. The only people suffering for this are inocent. Not one person who caused the wrecking ball in jail not one. Only sweden had any bottle to procecute and jail.

Top of this like you say we sold our gold reserves. I also blame IMF. Incidently something dodgy going on with legarde with an investigation in finance deals. Those economists who peddled this neolistic ideolgy like friedman and those lobbyist who peddled vested interest ideolgy. These ones laughing at us with there millions peddled away in tax havens. We should be rounding these up putting them in jail for treason. We got no current players in politics got bottle because they just as corrupt. How many MP's have earned money from this utopa neobolistic ideas. They should be stripped never be allowed near politics.

The only policies coming out its intent causing another boom in property with buy to let fiasco. Why becuase again vested interest to make more money.

Labour not soul reason we simply for over 30 years. However they just guilty not dropping this stupid policies in the gutter where they belong. We relied too much on market/bankers/stocks. We have little productivity to recover and stupidly suppressing wages to make rich richer and tank whats left the economy. The charade gone on way to long for 30 years at least..

To cap another madness Met want sell scotland yard 500k short term fix which will cost long term more money. Bringing in G4S another sham to supose to save money but long term only ones laughing will be G4S getting rich at our expense.

My bad ... I got the freeholder and the leaseholder the wrong way round.

It actually makes no difference to the point I was making - the tenants have been aware for SEVEN YEARS that their landlord did not have an unending lease on the properties and that at some point they were likely to be moved on.

It is the freeholder's right not to renew the lease and then to sell the property on. They have given fair notice and now they are carrying through the sale. Its all very well for the tenants to be complaining how many years they have lived there but if they want the best possible chance of living an entire lifetime in "their" house the only way to achieve that is to buy one for themselves.
