  I think this council like others went through the process of selling of council homes whilst not replacing them which caused a problem in itself.
  so the sales slowed to a trickle once the best ones had been sold.
  
  We then had a lot of landlords ripping off the council(as barryw would say it's legal)
  charging big rents, and you and I subsidised many of them.
  
  there are without doubt some good landlords in dover district, but there are also bad landlords out to make as dosh as they can, whilst providing a poor service.
  
  Will the latest moves make any real difference? of course cheapest rents will be looked for and if that's dover then we will get th overflow
  
  but it's no different to childrens services that used the county to house children
  waiting to be placed in homes
  a lot of these children were sent from london boroughs
  i don't have a problem with this.
  
  I think dover has a lot to think about if it wants a bright future, and this is just one issue that may affect its future.
