Worried about living space? Then don’t have eight kids

TALK about biting the hand that feeds you, how ungrateful that these two with eight children feel neglected living in a house that costs the taxpayer £15,000 per year, when both of them are not working.

If one is a student and the other a full-time mother then it doesn’t make sense to have a family of eight children. Surely you have to cut your cloth to fit or otherwise pay the consequence which is what they have to do as they brought this on themselves. What do they expect, just to sit back and expect the taxpayer to fork out for their life of luxury?

I am not surprised Michael Garrett doesn’t have much sympathy for them, there must be millions of others feeling the same way, me being one of them.
