Anyway thanks for the info,that is shocking and I agree totally with you it should be stamped out.

Unrelated specifically but as to rents,I was assisting someone with a bedroom tax issue.
They lived in a Council house and the rent was around £120 weekly.

Then I learned the house right next door was originally a council house,bought by the tenants in the 80s,who died,their family then sold the house on.
The person who bought it,wanted to rent it out,and I was stunned to learn the rent for that same former council house was set at £980 monthly.
Something else I would like to see looked at especially if more council/social housing is going to be bought and then sold on.

Good thread and really interesting opening post Kirk.

Thanks Joey - I did tell you that I was preparing this thread a while back. I detest these crooks - really.
