THOSE WHOM THE GODS WISH TO DESTROY.....

The Dame will often get what Ludo, her nasty nephew, describes a 'wind up's' but this from one of her regular readers seems genuine....or could it be a 'wind up' from the Dame's old foe, The Honourable Sir Rocco Forte? 


Hi Dame,

Hope you're good.

Mr. Corbyn, is going to compulsorily purchase empty luxury flats and hand them over to homeless people.

I have a refinement to that idea.
There are many luxury hotels with low levels of occupancy. Surely these rooms should be commandeered for the homeless? 
A SUITE SPOT
I am not suggesting that they should enjoy full room service but it would be good if they were able to pop into the Connaught and Claridges with the bill being split between the hotel and the council. 
It would bring home to those posh and entitled fellow guests that there's another world out there.

I see that 30% of those sleeping rough are now foreign so there's an irony about foreign owners of London property having their property forfeited to advantage fellow foreigners with nowhere to live!

Yeah, there will be Brits moaning that they can't get on the housing list or have struggled to work to get a deposit but they need to start thinking of others.

Best wishes and keep up the good work.

  1. An excellent idea! At a stroke the homeless problem sorted and no more pesky tourist.
    In fact, we should be enticing migrants from Calais to make their way to London.

  2. After Brexit the border will move from Calais to Dover so that will no longer be a problem.

  3. Corbyn is like some mad, extravagant wife. The sort you desperately want to get rid off whose only skill is spending the husband's money. But then Corbyn has never had to had a money creating job. Sucked on the Union teat or the Government teat. What an arseh**e

    1. Its Theresa May and the Conservatives who have doubled our national debt to 1.3 Trillion and rising .

  4. Actually, the figure of those sleeping rough from overseas is nearer 60%. Where did this guy get 30% from?

  5. The idea that the problem will be solved putting homeless people in flats is baking mad. John Bird, the founder of Big Issue has said the majority are suffering from mental illness and are incapable of looking after a property without help. They should not even be in a heartless city like London.

    2. The Sunday Mirror this week heard harrowing stories from veterans who fought on the front line but now sleep in doorways, graveyards and parks, begging from the passers-by whose freedom they defended.

      Many are having to cope with the devastating affects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which has led to a cycle of family break-up, addictions to drugs or alcohol and homelessnes

  6. Streets: Your concerns are unfounded. Those living in a hotel will have their room looked after (chambermaid service). Whether they should be here is another matter. A TV programme sometime ago visited the 'illegals' living in tents in Park Lane. They were offered tickets home, etc. One was asked why he was in London. His reply was that at home he gets nothing. But the nothing is much nicer in London. Will the problem go away when we are out of the EU? No. As long as the UK social care is miles better than anywhere else, these people will queue in Calais, waiting their turn.

    1. People want a home not a hotel room . Perhaps we could get this message through to RBKC Conservative Councillors who are leaving Grenfell survivors to rot in hotels .

  7. Well, with the dickhead Corbyn in charge we will be a magnet for the dross of the world and hard working working people will pay. Anyone who votes for Corbyn either works for the Gov or is unemployed. Labour is a party for idiots

  8. CORBYN has never contributed anything positive to this country, he just shouts from the side lines and argues against ideas.

    Corbyn provides no positive solutions and no workable ideas. A dinosaur to say the least.

  9. 1/3 of all homeless are ex-forces .

  10. This is what happens when Local Authorities refuse to build Council Housing or address the issue of homelessness and hoard hundreds of millions in Council coffers .

    Most homeless wouldn't feel comfortable in 'luxury 'flats and a one bed council flat would probably be sufficient in most cases.

    This is s direct result of Margaret Thatchers right to buy - 1.2 million homes sold off - 1.2 Million on Council waiting lists.

    And RBKC'S unofficial policy of social cleansing .

    1. and why should my tax be used to house people who should not be in the country in the first place. Hardworking people of every background are fed to the back teeth having to fund people who often don't want to work.
      I suppose you are a bloody Momentum fool

  11. ...and why should my tax go to bail out Privatized Institutions such as East Coast Rail , Southern Rail , probably Carillion, and lots more that we don't even know about . I'm a Patriot - not momentum , our lads and lasses fought bravely for our Country and should not be left to rot on the street.

  12. No veteran should be homeless and no foreign person sleeping rough should be in our country. I worked hard a hard job. Why should I look after some foreign layabout. Send 'em home and their country look after them.
    Look after our veterans not spongers

  13. What about Gurka's then ?

    1. Too brown.

      We don't like ex-squaddies wallowing madly on our streets either, thanks.
