 Dear Editor,

 After a sustained campaign of lobbying over two years we have finally persuaded Riverside Housing to release for sale the vacant property 6 Russian Drive

 The disgraceful thing is that Riverside finally agreed to sell this long term vacant after it was set on fire

 It had been a health nuisance and blight on the neighbourhood for two years

 These Housing Associations do not have the incentive of profit to utilise their assets

 Often they buy properties using soft loans financed by the tax payer, then leave them vacant or derelict

 This abuse of publicly funded assets should not go on

 If any Liverpool residents have details of neglected and derelict Housing Association property near them please write to us with as much detail as possible at The Liberal Party, 41 Sutton Street, Tuebrook, Liverpool , L13 7EG
