Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS!

[fazersharp]

You are so right in what you say. They come to the UK to take advantage of all that we have to offer and show no respect to the people that have lived here all their lives. We have lived in this house for 36 years. At that time all the houses were owner/occupier and our children grew up together. We knew all our neighbours and respected each other. There were no problems at all with noise, drugs, parking, violence, such as we have now.The problems started when landlords started buying houses when they came up for sale. They didn't care who they rented them to. Our lives have been made a misery in the past five years, to the point that we may be forced to leave this house. This Summer has been hell. We have been unable to open a window at night in the hot weather due to groups of East Europeans out in the back gardens, drinking, shouting, playing music, often until 3 or 4 am.

keep an eye on how many are living in the house and it may be an illegal HMO. (house in multiple occupancy) meaning that the landlord is renting out each bedroom and the living room to different people with out doing all the extra works necessary or registering the house as an HMO. The local council will then have do something.
