After the viewing, Phil sent an email to another member of staff at LMH, warning them about me, and how I behaved at the viewing.
I will dissect that email in much greater detail later, as well as in my complaint to torus.
However, there is one point that I want to bring up now.
In that email, Phil says he couldn’t believe I behaved the way I did at the viewing, “While trying to make a good impression.”
What can’t he believe?
That a disabled person behaved in line with their disability?
Or that a person would behave appropriately to how poorly both Phil and Torus were treating them?
Because neither Phil, nor Torus, attempted to make a good impression at the viewing.
- The flat was filthy.
- I was incorrectly told my sick benefits would be stopped if I took the property, and that I would have no money to live off for the first few months there.
- And that people would be regularly taking drugs directly outside my kitchen window.
- My housing officer gossiped about another tenant to me.
- And made misogynist and transphobic comments about my future career options.
- Three members of staff made discriminatory comments and suggestions about my disability, including my housing officer.
But, Phil, the housing officer in question, can’t believe I had the audacity to turn up to the viewing mentally disabled, to the point he felt he needed to warn other members of staff about me.
