My friend runs a catering business in central london, all of his staff are in social housing, on benefits and get paid in cash. the business supplies lunches for investment banks, social media giants et al. The busienss model relies entirely on the universal credit model and social housing because he cannot pay more because he doesnt want to charge more and risk losing the business. The evidence in this post paints a clear picture that people who aren't citizens will be prioritised for social housing because of diminished rights they have in the society but that leg up in society is argubly a racist act and that is why the social housing shouldn't exist or should only be available to british citizens who have become homeless involuntarily.
The alternative is to have no social housing but be prepared in that scenario to have increased taxes to house people in private rentals.

Feels like a simpler thing would be tax non citizens and pay it to citizens rather than having different rules for every different area.
It's amazing that, especially after 10+ years of Tory majority, that this is still the case!
People consistently vote for parties who promise to sort this, but they never do.
Is it a lie from the start? I think so. The government do not represent the wishes of the people
