A new term has been added to the litany catchphrases describing enemies of the people. To the words wreckers, profiteers and capitalist roaders has been added “bedroom blockers”, now used to refer to persons over 60 years of age who are live in homes in Britain with more bedrooms than they need.
The Intergenerational Foundation (IF), an organization “established to promote fairness between generations”, notes that these homes with spare bedrooms are now being selfishly used by older people when they are needed by the young. In a report the IF has proposed a tax increase to squeeze these seniors out of their homes to “free up space” for the younger generation.
The report stated that there are 25million bedrooms empty in homes across the country, many of which are owned by single old people. …
‘It is perfectly understandable that retired people cling to their home long after it has outlived its usefulness as a place to bring up a family in,’ said the Hoarding on Housing report’s co-author, Matthew Griffiths.

:thumbsup: But you should really consider taking in at least one of these out of work protesters who only have an iphone, ipad and a set of bongos.....could be fun!
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
