Sheltered housing - The political price for the Tories in Barnet

If you are a Barnet Tory, read this article from The Hendon Times. This is the political price to be paid for abolishing sheltered housing. Between now and the next election you will read many more pieces like this written by your Labour and Lib Dem opponents. I can tell you this, as your plans affect many vulnerable people, you will alienate many of your natural supporters. Read this article very carefully and think. The one thing the British hate is unfairness and everyone I've spoken to thinks this scheme is awful. Councillors Offord, Freer and Hillan could well find that this policy is the final nail in the coffin of their aspirations if they insist on continuing with it.
