Abstract
This article analyses several diverse strands of Westminster City Council's unlawful policy of selling off council homes, one of the most significant political scandals of the 1980s and 1990s. After setting out the story of the events and adjudications in this saga, the article considers three discursive sites: political constructions of ownership, law's constructions, and constructions of law. The latter two sites are located within a discussion of law's power and law's powerlessness.
