Uttlesford District Council are Compulsorily Purchasing the home of a son [me] and daughter-in-law that have given up careers to provide care and support to their elderly, disabled parents since 2001.
The only reason UDC are taking this action is because, to be able to provide that care, we were forced to move from our family home of 23-years, to live with my parents when our son was born.
We had to fight tooth & nail to obtain our right to a Class J exemption from council tax, only gained as the result of a VT decision, despite UDC’s Barrister… UDC has done the same to another taxpayer,
Despite evidence of incompetence and maladministration, UDC refuse to stop the CPO. We expect to loose our home and £150,00 of value from our retirement fund - that we will never recover - within weeks.
We think this is an infringement of our Human Rights and indirect discrimination against my parents.
We have never received an explanation for WHY? they think 8-years of persecution has been justified, simply because we care.
