Fake news like normal. Business man implements sensible credit model gets slammed in the press. Seems like a responsible lender? Can't pay, won't lend. Not to Guardian readers though. If Fergus was in charge maybe GFC wouldn't have happened!

I couldn't give a toss about the bloke. In fact I linked to see who TF Slasher was on about. I'd never heard of him.

However, you may not find the man to your liking, guess what, I find you not to my liking.
But would I wish you a disease and death? No.
Only the bottom of the barrel wish for things like that.

Would you believe I have met him and his wife a few times and he is obnoxious, nasty man. I can't recall his previous profession, if he had one, but I think he actually wanted to be Police and Crime Commissioner of Kent Police at one time. IIRC she was previously a maths teacher.

As one of The letting agent's, (Roy of Evolution) very 1st clients I am surprised he deals with the Wilsons but see he now has numerous employees so perhaps that is a price he is happy to pay.......although it does seem to be his company (or an employee) that leaked the emails.

FWIW slasher you can use all your usual insults against him.

Turns out I must have misjudged him - he claims to have entirely justifiable economic grounds for his discriminatory policies.

Surely as an owner of a property you can decide who and who not to let your property to. Therefor under the law might he actually have a chance?

I can imagine with his business model he can absorb it, but imagine renting your family house out for six months whilst say on a holiday abroad to a constant curry eating family and as the smell permeates everything I believe you would see be remembering the tenants 5 years later, same with smokers ! So on that basis I would vet people or not rent it out.

You've been here only a few months but several times you've made comments regarding what you think about PHers in general. I think you're actually someone else who's signed up with a second account to post inflammatory crap.

Obviously the 'coloured' comment is a bit 'Mind Your Language' but I'd wholeheartedly agree with the curry comments. Having had to live next to people with a fondness for curry-based cuisine it's probably one of the top nuisances for a potential tenant. I like eating curry, and my dad cooks Malay/Thai curry from time to time, but certain curries have a rather nasty odour which is bad enough outside the house let alone inside one. I lent my smartphone to someone who cooks curry and decided to trade it in because I couldn't get the smell off it.

Exactly - I hope he feels really proud posting that - Totally unacceptable - Saying that, he seems to be one of the latest Trolls in here. I wonder if he ever got his car repaired under warranty...

I would so not kick him out of bed. He's a dream boat. I'll do the wife as well but she looks less fun.
