And if they won't go and live in sink council estates voluntarily.....

This is a great effort of NL to reduce global warming.

If the scrotes only have to nip next door for a new telly or video, or for something to sell to feed their crack habit they won't need to run that rusty blue transit.

Higher earners should live alongside poorer households to achieve a better mix in housing, a Government-commissioned report said yesterday.

What is "better" about it?

I once had reason for a plod to ask me why I was "driving that sort of car in that kind of area".

"Erm, because I live there?"

I guess now said plod will have to be sent on a re-education course.

I assume this was in GB - was it your Lambourghini or Porsche up north, or a rusty Mark III Cortina down south?

And leave the good houses for civil servants?

“Higher earners should live alongside poorer households to achieve a better mix in housing, a Government-commissioned report said yesterday.”

Local Government implanted a similar policy in my hometown. The council bought up properties in the well to do area. The properties were then used to house problem families and ex-convicts under the theory that if the families are housed in better areas they will change their ways and behave better. The result is that the area is suffering from vandalism theft and murder for the first time in forty years.

Didn’t Westminster Council try something like this back in the 80’s?
