Council tenants could lose their homes if they get a job or a pay rise, sparking fears that residents will be put off looking for work.
They face tests every two years to see if they still qualify to stay, under plans unveiled today by Housing Minister Grant Shapps to axe the property-for-life pledge.
Those who don't will have six months to find another place, forcing them into high-rent private homes or on to the property ladder.

There is supposed to be a "consultation" coming up on this. Politicospeak for "We will listen to your rants but are going to do this anyway." |
