How do you "look as if you might have learning disabilities"???? Bloody hell.
I have several thoughts on this. Firstly I have no problem with the number of children he has per se, that's his business (we have ten children ourselves). Secondly, this man does not claim unemployment benefit, he is on some form of disability and clearly used to work as a soldier then as a baker, so obviously paid taxes on what he earned for possibly a considerable number of years.Thirdly, as far as I am concerned it's no-one else's business how he conducts his social life, he is welcome to have as many girlfriends as he wishes. Fourthly, he does have a point that a 3 bedroomed house is inadequate for his family's needs.Legislation on that matter is there for a reason.
Now take all of that into consideration, we are actually looking at a man who has in the past paid into society via his taxes and now would like a decent standard of living for his children. People in this country are often horrified at the idea of very large families for some reason. It's not ideal since he is not supporting them via his own work at the moment, but then we have to examine the idea that if we stopped him having kids because he claims disability allowance, are we going to do the same thing to anyone claiming a benefit, or limit the number of children they have? That's a very slippery slope to embark upon.
I don't think the man is scum, neither do I think he is a victim. I wouldn't personally have a family of any sort if I couldn't support them myself, but I wouldn't be wanting to deny that to anyone else, and God forbid, if tomorrow I broke my back and couldn't work, and my business interests went belly up, would I then be scum if I was obliged to claim a benefit? Would my kids be dross because their Dad was signing on? I don't think so, and I don't think any of us should be so quick to judge someone we don't know.
