Texter: re more social housing...well all I can say is "there goes the neighbourhood". Call me a snob? Fair enough then I am a snob, but I worked hard to buy a property in a nice development along the Buncrana road and now it looks like its going to be swamped by council estates, people dependant on benefits who couldnt care less about their house!
