I searched to see if this had already been posted - if it has, delete.

Look what this naughty labour ("Defender of the poor and needy") run council chief did;

"A housing chief at a Labour-run council which moved senior staff into prime low-rent homes after asking elderly tenants to leave has been a sacked, the authority said.
Kristine Reeves, the £52,000-a-year head of neighbourhood and strategic housing at Norwich City Council, was fired following a disciplinary hearing.
She was dismissed with immediate effect for gross misconduct after tenants were evicted from the post-war sheltered housing development in 2007.
The site was earmarked for demolition to make way for the creation of new homes.
But the properties were then advertised for let in a council staff newsletter. Ms Reeves and her partner were among a number of employees at the authority who moved in.
News of the affair emerged in December following an investigation by journalists.
A council spokesman said Ms Reeves had breached policies and failed to declare a conflict of interest.
"As a consequence of these actions she has brought the council into severe disrepute," said the spokesman."

Nice!

Just done a bit of digging on her and it seems she was originally something to do with "Shelter Organisation allegedly to help and support the homeless"

The way this countries councils run our local services is a disgrace, councils seem like the best place to rip-off and rob the people of their boroughs.

Not compulsory purchase in this case, they were council owned properties. Council wants to knock them down and replace with a much higher number of dwellings. Surprisingly enough, no timescale has been given for this to happen. Hmmmmm, makes you wonder......

Has she committed a criminal offence?

Should she suffer morte than just a mere "sacking"?

Housing abuse by council officials has occured many times in the past - and not just in Labour run councils.
