She’s been waiting patiently for a council house for nearly four years. Recently, the council put her in temporary accommodation, but it was absolutely dire and shared with strangers, not safe or suitable for her or her child. So I said I would help her out. I let her stay in a little flat Iown rent free (bought it years ago). She’s a mate, I’ve known her since we were little, and I couldn’t see her and her daughter living like that. I thought I was helping. But now, because she left that temporary housing, the council’s turned around and said she’s no longer classed as “vulnerable” and they’ve put her back at the bottom of the list. She’s still the same person, still struggling, still needs a permanent roof over her head. All that’s changed is that I helped her out. And now it feels like she is being punished. Has anyone else been through something like this? And is there anything I can do to help get her back on track? Because right now, it feels like trying to do the right thing has only made things harder for her and I feel terrible. Bosh❤️ XXXXXXXXX engagements  [Post Link](https://x.com/iamtomskinner/status/1947376718840512625)
