Bailiwick Podcasts

At some point in our lives many of us will need to claim benefits, and with the cost of living so high, many of us may also need to consider social housing or partial ownership schemes.

Unfortunately these decisions can come with stigmas and stereotypes, most recently highlighted by a Bailiwick Express article regarding a landlord telling a prospective tenant to "f*** off and get a job".

We asked the President of Employment and Social Security, Deputy Peter Roffey, to come in and bust some myths about social housing. He was joined by local businessman and non-voting member of ESS, Ross Le Brun.
