How many is many, many....10,20 or 100....Where exactly in Hyndburn do these many, many single parents live in these three bedroom houses? How do you know that they are on full benefit and receiving full council tax benefit?

Do you by any chance know many, many families that are currently living in cramped accomodation because of repossession? How many repossessions have been caused by people overstretching themselves and getting into negative equity?

Yes there are people who screw the system, these are a minority. Only Daily Mail readers think otherwise

You live in cloud cuckoo land
