This could be the cry under new powers being given to 'social landlords' allowing them to check on the finances of their tenants.....
Social housing landlords will be able to check their tenants' finances after two years in the property, under planned reforms.
Following the review, tenants could be evicted if their financial situation is deemed to have improved enough.
The reforms, for new tenants in England, will be unveiled next week as part of a wide-ranging Localism Bill.
The government had already said it wanted to end council houses "for life" for anyone new coming into the system.
Existing tenants will not be affected by the changes.
