Old Conservatives don't understand

And when they run short of money they sell off assets cheap for cash flow.

And lose 30 years of income that is already planned for. It's more than bricks and mortar.

And the reason they are short of cash is because of the massive drain of housing benefit….and selling off assets cheap now just increases the housing benefit cost.

Thatcher forced councils to sell council houses and prevented them buying more.
It was political not cash flow
Councils ended up losing 1.5 million homes

The councils still buy and sell assets.

Council revenue is a mix of central govt and council tax

It’s a single pot, it’s not hypothecated, so yes central govt supports council house maintenance.

oh deary deary me you certainly don have a scooby on what money can be spent and what on . And its certainly not a single pot.
And you have only put two sources of revenue now lets think which one you have missed off

These right wing grifters are so desperate to believe their nonsense….

They buy their own houses: gas says he has 4 houses, so he obviously believes in home ownership…..yet is here arguing till he is blue in the face that councils are better flogging their houses and renting.

Political tribalism makes people unable to think for thenselves

Strawman

It doesn’t matter if they have a plan or not, if they own a house, it’s good for rent for 30+ years, prob far longer

You poor thing you are twisting yourself inside out.

pathetic strawman

Maintenance of council houses comes from tax revenue, it matters not whether it’s central taxation, council tax or councils flogging assets….it’s all tax revenue.

Oh dear, here's one, Bristol. If you need more I'm sure I could post them all day. You'll notice the rental income increase assumptions over 30 years. How do you think selling off properties affects rental income?

2.2. Overview of methodology and assumptions

Overall The plan is based on the following overarching principles:

31 year projections from 2021.22 based on most recent forecasts, including those for 2022.23
Core inflation projected at 3.4% for April 2023, 2.2% for April 2024 and then 2.0% thereafter with exemptions as detailed below;
Rents increasing at CPI+1% per annum up to and including April 2024 in-line with the current social policy and then CPI thereafter. The forecasts include a provision for re-lets at formula rent levels based a reducing balance of 3% per year.
