After reading about the Afghan family living in a £12,000 per month house?

provided free of charge by the council, http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1072729/Its-like-winning-lottery-Jobless-Afghan-mother-seven-gets-170-000-benefits-lives-1million-council-house.html?ITO=1490 would you like to balance this by reading about how well the local Councils treat indigenous families hit by the tragedy of homelessness? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cornwall/4408946.stm http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cornwall/3586146.stm http://www.truevisiontv.com/press/Evicted/Web/BBC%20NEWS%20Magazine%20Growing%20up%20homeless.html check this out: "Chloe's diet has suffered as well. With no cooking facilities beyond a kettle, the only hot food her mother can provide is Pot Noodle. A friend in the B&B, 15-year-old Sarah, fares little better. Her mother puts tins of baked beans on the radiator each morning so she can provide her children with, if not hot, then certainly warm meals by the evening. " So can anyone explain to me what makes this Afghan family so superior that they deserve infinitely better treatment than these indigenous British families? And BTW as a low paid, taxpaying working British family we were faced with exactly the same thing in 2006 when I was 8 months pregnant and we were facing homelessness - we were offered 6 weeks in a B&B and then nothing. So I speak from bitter experience here. I feel very disillusioned and angry with the UK Government.

1. What do you expect? We are frightened of saying to these immigrants the word 'NO'. Did you notice the recipient of this huge rent is also an immigrant! They get what ever they want because of this reason and the time will soon arrive when this will stop. We are getting fed up.
2. I agree. England and USA need to start taking care of their own and putting out the same care for all. No family should be above and beyond any family. if we need help we should all get the same help.
3. Oh its not because of race It is because she has 7 kids . So go on girls, knock one out a year, all by different dads, get evicted from where you are ant the council legally has to provide accommodation to suit the family... The more you have, the bigger the house, the more your benefits and so on
4. One extreme to the other, I am sure that the amount being paid for the first is way too high and that they should be homed else where, but that they too should be homed just as much as the others. Knee jerk reactions only emit from me, if someone attacks me from behind in a dark street.
5. It's the same the length and breadth of the country,if you're a white heterosexual Christian citizen you are treated like s hit. This country cares more about immigrants,asylum seekers and any other ethnic/minority group rather than it's own people. The sooner the British people wake up and start doing something the better.I think it's about time we had an uprising in this country and started fighting for OUR rights because nobody else will.
6. This is the way it works, if your born and breed in this country your the second class when it comes to housing its been like this for many years my daughter has been on a council list for 10 yrs near gt yarmouth the immigrants get sorted imeadiately ,the`ve probably never paid one penny into the state but claimed thousands also their getting benifits paid for children that live in their own country,most of us feel the same way !DISILLUSIONED .your not on your own.
7. i used to work on these houses doing them uo for immigrents. ,they have to have everything supplied for them and i mean everything in the hose you need. even down to a mobile phone with money in it. the rent paid by the council in dery is a maximin of £58 for us any more you pay yourself, when they move in the council pay £150 p/w for five years even if the house is empty, this is why all these people are renting to the foregin people. its about time i won the lottery ,i could buy a supertanker and ship all these nice people back were they came from and sod sherry blair and her human rights.
8. the cold Truth about this question,concerns politics and demographics.the original English population on its own is now Diminishing.whilst the immigrant population is and always will be in the Ascent.it follows therefore,that political power, is in future ,dependant on the immigrant vote.i think this goes partway to answering your question,as for the events taking place and individual cases you describe ,it is disgusting,both morally and ethically.unfortunately its just the blink of a political eye.
9. It's because there was nowhere more suitable available and the family had people advocating for them who knew their rights, a lot of people don't make a fuss and don't get what they are entitled to, this isn't a case of immigrants being treated better.
10. The problem in Britain is that we have a minority of people with way too much power, who can kick up one hell of a stink far above than what is needed if any minority group sufferers the slightest form of discrimination. Yet if any white and to a certain degree black person or family are discriminated against it is virtually ignored without the slightest of a whisper of protest from anyone in the media. Why and how this is, I just don't honestly know and understand. This story though reminds me of the Gurkha's who have fought and died for Britain for centuries yet the powers that be deny these men and their families the right to settle in Britain, but at the same time we have people from Afghanistan and god knows where-else who have paid and contributed nothing towards Britain, getting every benefit possible from under the sun.
11. all i can say is IF ONLY THEY LIVED NEXT DOOR TO ME!! I WOULD MAKE THEIR LIFE A LIVING HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
12. I feel your anger also. WAKE UP BRITAIN!!!!!!
13. iv'e askd a similar quest and ive put down why i asked it my son was in b+b but a cheating benefit curry house waiter got the hous e he had to find his own my son has to bring up 3kids on his own as the bike e was with left him and went with my daughters boyfriend REGARDS TO YOU MICK
14. my answer is short and simple, vote BNP
15. its disgusting,they all need sending back to where they come from.
16. Ok I understand that boys and girls can't share a bedroom after the age of 10 but what would have been wrong with the boys sharing a room with the boys and the girls sharing a room with the girls or is that 2 easy a solution. Does the landlord have to pay tax on the rent he receives????
17. Hey LadyMoon, I feel your anger too. So many people on here have asked similar questions. I will give my honest opinion, but no doubt, as with probably the others I have answered, will be dubbed a racist. I had a look at the newspaper articles you provided for everyone; I had a read, and it made me physically sick. GRRRRRRRRRR. No wonder that scumbag family have big smiles on their faces. "We have no worries. British taxpayer fund everything for us, so we smile", it's like their expression is saying. Kick em out and focus on the needy British families! It was both saddening and frustrating to hear about those British families you mention. God, like almost living in third world conditions! You should have been offered better. You contribute to society, you work, so why shouldnt you have got good treatment? Those scum probably didnt, therefore, they dont deserve anything. I repeat from a previous answer I gave; we need to get rid of Gordon Brown and his scum Labour posse. We need to do more about this kind of treatment. Brits first, them second. And sorry if anyone wants to challenge me on this. It's the same if we were living in another country, the countries people should get priority. I hope everything has worked out for you ok now, and you arent homeless, and your kids are ok. Best wishes. EDIT: @ Mr Inglister. I have never ONCE voted Labour in the four years I have been legally through age allowed to vote. If I was to say who I did vote for last year, I think I would be called a racist.
18. Thats labour for you. One big slap in the face for the working class brits. You all make me laugh!!!!!!! You vote for trash and you get trash. When will you ever learn????? Ade C--------Thankyou!!!!! Im glad Im not alone, One day, Just one day the price will be paid.
