Tom O'Leary, 42, and wife Tanya Walsh, 39 - who live in a £1.2 million house, on benefits with their 12 kids

Would you wish for this family living next door to you?

Honest answers please.

[bookbinder]

No, thank you.

[B00]

no

Anyone who can milk the system like this should be put on a par with tax evaders who put their £mns in off-shore locations.

They can both do this legally but the end result is the same.

/// I have read this, I know the area, and my brother in law has a house 2 streets away - he has just had his house valued and it is larger than this house and not worth £1.2. ///

An area can change dramatically 2 streets away.

Why do you want someone sacked for releasing these details, when you were perfectly happy to support Wikileaks founder Julian Assange?

[mccfluff]

probably not, depends on how noisy they are

Don't need the link, don't believe your question is irrelevant. The state should not be encouraging folk to have no control over their breeding and should not be in a £1.2M house at the ratepayers' expense. Difficult to know what to do, but being Lady Bountiful is not the role of the State. (Especially a State that allegedly is so poor it can't even afford to collect rubbish every week.)

"Would you wish for this family living next door to you?"

not if what they have done and are doing is true. no. but then i would feel the same if madonna or rod stewart lived next door and did the same.

I would rather have them than the neighbour we have at present!!

I'd rather not have any large noisy family living next to me. Who's paying the bills is irrelevant. (In fact I think next door is council-owned, but they're all very quiet, so no problem.)

[smudge]

I've often wished for anyone other than the family of 5, including 3 noisy irritating boisterous brats, who live next door to us - but I'd rather stick with them, than the family in your question AOG - unless of course they are quiet!

<<Why do you want someone sacked for releasing these details, when you were perfectly happy to support Wikileaks founder Julian Assange? >>

Confused?

Julian Assange does not 'leak' - other people do that and send it to wikileaks - he then publishes.

So related to your link and this story he is fulfilling the same role as The Sun.

And I agree with redhelen - no way is that property worth £1.2 mill but hey; we can't expect The Sun to allow a few facts to spoil a good story.

After what I had to put up with my very own neighbour from hell a few years back I wouldn't want a repeat performance.
