Housing plan for ex-inmates

Housing plan for ex-inmates

A scheme to re-house ex-offenders in some of Hull's 600 empty council homes has been put forward.

Thanks to Ron for alerting me to this story.

And, £2M to be spent fencing residents in on an estate in an attempt to keep criminals and druggies etc out. Is this the ghetto comes to Britain?

I have never been lifted, never done time.
Will get lifted for political reasons.
That is what the Super Prisons are for.
Unfortunately.

600 empty houses? That is one hell of a lot , don't know what the housing situation is like over there but wish there was that many empty houses here.
