Afghan mum-of-7 got £1.2 million council house

And benefits worth £170,000 a year.

The natives are getting very restless, as can be seen from the 148 comments the 'Daily Mail' has received to date:

Council workers sacked over jobless Afghan mother of seven who got £1.2million council house | Mail Online

I doubt if those expressing outrage about this are likely to vote UKIP

The article has changed and the council has now acted by escorting the 3 temporary workers who allowed this to happen off their premises. I suspect that there is a lot going on behind the scenes to rectify the situation as Ealing is Tory and this sort of abuse was supposed to have been cleared up.

I wonder how the landlord justified his price ?

Apparently the landlord agreed it with the council officers.

Just shows what council officers are accustomed to paying in rent or mortgage.
How many council houses could this money build ?
