Answer 1

You're an idiot.

Answer 2

Who gave JG thumbs down? She/he is completely correct. Since you are a private tenant, your landlord can give you notice to quit ANYWAY regardless of whether the property is being demolished or not. Your landlord could choose to terminate your contract at the end of your current lease just because he or she wants to, even without the demolition being an issue. If the council or a private developer did want to purchase the property for demolition, no, they wouldn't inform you - you're only the tenant. All dealings would be with your landlord. Of course your landlord *could* refuse, but what makes you think that he/she wants to? Remember that property prices are currently decreasing so if they were to sell on the open market then they'd have to accept a low price, so maybe they'll think that accepting an offer from a developer/the council would be the best way to go if they were planning on selling at all in the next x number of years. Technically, as a private tenant, no the council wouldn't have to rehome you. It's worth contacting them as since you have a child, you may find that you qualify for council housing. But I would imagine that they would argue that if you can afford to rent privately now, then you can afford to find another place. I'm sorry but I don't really understand what the big deal is. Surely as a private tenant, you were aware that your tenure is entirely dependent on that home being available to you, and that once it is no longer available you must move on. That's a major reason why people choose to buy - so that they have more security.

Answer 3

Oh, so because YOU say so we should just demolish ALL the buildings in England for YOU. Its all a matter of opinion. Yours doesn't come above other peoples.

Answer 6

the reason all the houses look new in America are because most are of wooden construction
they don't last five minutes

look at the weather we had in the UK this summer
how long before wood becomes rotten?

the reason all our houses look old is because most of them ARE old!
we know how to build to last
if you don't like it - move!

Answer 7

why did you think that this should be done
this is absolutely wrong thinking of yours
the old building are a great source to know about your motherland'past!!
they are great pool of knowledge ,they are also something for which we should be proud of!!
the very old houses and mansions which are not in condition to live in should be REPAIRED OR DEMOLISHED !!

Answer 8

You give them your money to built new houses in your own design for your satisfaction and desire. But if you are pennyless do not mind it. Built a house of your own. Observe rights of every citizen.
