West End Extra - LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Published: 14 December 2007
Housing? Some of us haven’t even got our own room
• I AM angry, and I think I have a very good reason. I really don’t think Alf Taboda and others have much reason to complain, as they actually have a flat to live in! (We need to break the status quo on housing, December 7).
I have had to share a room (just a bedroom, no living room) with my mentally ill sister for more than eight years, and Westminster Council says we are not a priority, so are unlikely ever to get council housing.
Now, am not talking about owning a flat, I would like nothing more than to actually to be able to have my own room to live in!
So, please people, shut up, and stop complaining. What would I do to swap places with you! JK
Edgware Road, W2
