It's not just for the locals, anymore...
Standing proudly with her arm draped over her 36in television, this is the Somali woman who must be given a council house even though she has no right to live in Britain.
Nimco Hassan Ibrahim - who lives with her four children on benefit handouts - was granted the right to the home by EU judges yesterday because she was once married to a Danish citizen who briefly worked in this country.
The landmark judgment means the 34-year-old migrant and her children will soon be packing up their impressive collection of furniture and electrical equipment when they are given a new house.
[..]
Speaking to the Daily Mail last night, Mrs Ibrahim said: 'I deserve to be given a proper house. This one is too small for all of us.
'I don't think it's fair that the council has put us up in temporary accommodation. It's not right that they have hounded us for four years. All these threats of eviction have made me feel very ill.
'The law says that I can get a better house so I'm looking forward to a better life.
'I have suffered psychological problems because of all this.
'To be honest, I was expecting the worst from the court and I'm relieved it has ended. Now I can enjoy my life.'








Gotta love how an EU judge decides what happens in (not so)Great Britain.

Do not be impatient that is fast coming our way at the rate our political parties are becoming more and more progressive as Glen Beck calls it. I just call it communist or commy oriented. The Libs are not anything like they were when I started to vote 50 odd years ago and the conservatives compared to my younger years are right off the map. The only ones that have stayed true to their Commy values and have not changed are Taliban Jack and the NDP
I think I might become a hermit or something.

A hermit with internet, right?

Of course. I think I would go bonkers without my iMac & a fast connection.
