    ... And more fool the idiot council. :rolleyes:

    You can bet they know who lives where when parking tickets are sent out, or you put some wrong stuff in your bin.

    Yes agreed , just shows how poor the checks were , before providing accommodation and handing out huge sums of money .

    Lol, I agree with the sentiment but I doubt there are any assets. I beleive we are building a jail for the Jamaican government so that we can deport their criminals rather than pay their room and board here

    I think that the council were in a difficult spot and had to respond "no questions asked" until they had the time to properly investigate. They could not leave poeple homeless on the streets while they investigated. The true victims were traumatised and had lost everything including in many cases friends or family. I wonder why it took so long to find them out and also what triggered it.

    Reminds me of this chap as well

    Er, no. I believe some people HUNDREDS OF YEARS ago purchased individuals who'd already been enslaved by their own countrymen.

    I won't be going on your guilt trip, or doing any self-flagellation. :rolleyes:

    A bit late for that... as there is nobody still alive on this planet to compensate or punish for it.

    Yes I agree that there was a lot of pressure to act fast to help the victims Max , and that was the priority , understandably .

    It seems poor however , that it took almost a year of accommodation and benefit payments , before the fraud was discovered .
