Interesting to see if this is enforced and effective as cant make people homeless

Nothing new, I lived on a council estate in Hampshire for a few years in my teens back in the 00s, my friends parents were regularly threatened with eviction over my friends miscreant behaviour..sounds cruel I know and it is, but so can the effects of the kids behaviour

Wish it wasn’t just in Nottingham, but it does sound like they have it particularly bad

Works a treat
Back in the 2000-10 days, I worked for council enforcement
Although the bar was much higher than I let on. The amount of local chavs that cooled down their shit, once I’d explained to the parent(s) that I would s21 them was amazing
I’ve always said fines should be put on parents, as in my experience, these are the only two ways to change their behavior
And once one is evicted, the rest of the estate chavs fall into line pretty much

It’s the only way you’re going to get parents to do their job otherwise they’ll leave their kids to be everyone elses problem. Letting your little ferals run wild should be treated as a crime, same as you’d be held accountable if your dog ate someone.

Just across the map make this the baseline if your caught being a dick at other people’s expense then your mum and dad get a fine as well as possible jail time. I get you can just blame the parents but as the only people in those kids lives (hopefully) that can control them they should also be held responsible for the shit they get upto. Then hopefully when they have their own kids they will teach them from the lessons they learnt.

Can’t evict people who have mortgages though sadly

This is a good policy and should be expanded nationwide if it isn’t already. We need to stop pandering to scumbags.
