if DM was an OCUK member it would be suspended for trolling.
Why do you suckers get so offended by such a non story?
Poor kids and the owner/renter of that property should be shot for the damp proof course, or lack of.

The story for me is how a landlord/HA can get away with taking money for such a **** hole.

Send them back they took our jewbs!!
While 10 kids is obviously a very extreme event it is a bit worrying that the laziest, least capable members of our society tend to breed at a younger age and do so more frequently than hard working productive people with careers...
I think their ought to be a requirement to be on contraceptives for a few years after bringing a child into this world which you require the rest of us to pay for... keep up the contraceptives and only allow benefits for 2 kids... contraceptives again if they want to keep further benefits.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was down to the tenants rather than a leaky roof.... with 11 people in there - 5 kids sharing a bedroom - you'd have to be on the ball as far as heating/ventilation etc.. is concerned.
They wouldn't. They would either end up bringing kids into an environment where they were unable to be able to provide for them or turn to crime to supplement their benefits income.
This isn't a simple problem to solve, and if the people in the system don't want to 'play ball' so to speak then there's not really a lot that anyone can do.
I still have no sympathy. IMHO they should be kicked out of benefits alltogether and the kids taken into care.
The solution is simple. Remove benefits for people who havent or dont work.

Unless you feed and clothe them and provide utilities the crime rate will soar; riots, looting, robbery, murder, and even if you did provide essential sustenance the crime rates would still rise dramatically in some areas.
It's a problem which requires prevention to be honest, I don't think it's solvable either.
As the 'solutions' simple exasperate the problem, when people start suggesting putting children into care then don't seem to stop & consider how much it would cost, or if there is anywhere for the kids to go.
Neither do they factor in the additional crime, which would likely not only negate any economic benefit, but cost us more in the long-term.
Complex social problems rarely have simple solutions.
Case & point, simple solution for a complex problem - in this cause laughable.
