Stigmum's back on the case

Yep, I was going to give it a rest but nope, I've decided to battle on, so I've just sent an email to 'allocations' and 'needs and access' (can't cc on my computer...): Questions that aren't being answered.

The jist was why are immigrants being housed before me and my son given some have been waiting less time than us and why, why, why for the nth time, have my son and I fallen so far down the waiting list?

I also added a 'fact'. That although the Council says the state of my flat is a risk to my child, and that my mental health has no bearing on it, I say that the Council puts my mental health at risk, which in turn makes it difficult to keep the place "tidy". So it is the Council putting my child at risk. Doctors need to help me so I can be there for my child yadda yadda.

We'll see if I get an answer or have they put a mark on my mail as 'junk'??

There was auto response from 'needs and access'. She's not around.

Does that mean "allocations' can start pretending all sorts, like she thought 'needs' was answering it for eg. I mean, do these people even talk to each other? I write to them both to act as a bridge, yes I do. Leave no stone unturned as it were. Annoy the whole bloody lot of them. But how many more stones must I find? Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. That's enough for today I think....

And no, the flat is not that messy. Would not pose a fraction of a challenge for Kim and Aggie. Just for me. Who should give a flying fairy cake anyway? "Dull women have immaculate houses" says my fridge magnet and "Good news for messy people: tidiness is bad for you" screams a 2007 cutting from the Times on my wall.

Council people just like to exert their power. Really bugs me. Really REALLY bugs me and bang out of order if it's true... that behind closed doors managers are saying they won't give me a flat because I pose a risk to my son....
