As I said earlier..... the kids should be in care.
If the parents aren't abusive towards the kids there's no need for them to be in care. Being removed from their crappy parents, and probably separated from their siblings would be much worse for them.

I am not so sure. Living in a sh**hole like that is hardly a good way to live. The woman will hang on to them for benefits.
She's not paid her rent, has multiple tv' sand games consoles...a trampoline and a swimming pool
Can't be bothered to go and sort it out...she's scum and is expecting everyone else to sort out her problems
If she gets housing benefit why isn't the rent paid straight to the landlord ?
These people lack any sort of moral compass and will gladly buy another HD TV or X Box and f***k paying the rent.
the government in its infinte wisdom changed the system a few years ago so that it went to the tennant rather than the landlord, it's cases like this that highlight the problem with this system, it needs to be changed sooner rather than later

I feel sorry for her poor kids
I think the poster's referring to to house owner not the useless bastard that trashed her property. That smelly skank should get jail time for wrecking that woman's property.

Ahhhh ok...apologies to the poster
I was just fuming watching this and it was a knee jerk reaction
I felt sorry for the 6 children. Mainly for having such a moronic idiot for a Mother. What a complete waste of space she was. Expecting to go through life living off the backs of others, all the time laughing in their faces.
Absolutely no shame at all. She lived in squalor and filth. Dirty cow. She hadn't paid any rent since last November, and had the damned bare faced cheek to be upset when they (rightly IMO) kicked her out. To leave the house in that trashed state as well. >:(
The handwringing over evictions of families gets on my nerves. Surely you should be doubly cautious about taking on debt if you've got people to look after. If you're single, you're still a pain in the arse to your creditors but at least it's only you who will have to find a room for the night. Risking the roof over your kids' heads is unforgivably reckless.
So the family effectively stole £10k in housing benefit, AND get rehoused without paying any of it back to the landlord. There's justice for you.
Yep, that about sums it up. She annoyed me more than most though. Her 'indignation' about being told to get out after having not paid any rent for months really annoyed me. The bailiff was too kind to her - though on reflection he was probably only concerned for her children and not her.
Council won't help her, they don't give a **** that shes gona be on the streets with 6 kids
Its the oldest trick in the book these people do not want private accommodation they want council as its cheaper and the tenure is more secure, so they try and 'force' an eviction as as soon as they are homeless they believe the council has to rehome them, however if a person makes themselves intentionally homeless the council does not have to rehouse them.
This is seen all the time in fact people who are facing being told that they have to leave due to maybe the landlord wanting to sell up or wanting their property back are told by the council not to leave until evicted as they would make them selves intentionally homeless if they do, only once they are evicted will the council help but that's only when its not the tenant fault that they have to leave, not something that the tenant has done to make themselves homeless like not paying rent.
When the bailiff look amazed that the council wouldn't help I immediately said to my husband they have made themselves intentionally homeless and that proved to be the councils stance, the bailiff should have known that anyway he has done enough evictions, maybe his comments were just for the camera.
Although the council rehoused them we don't know how, it maybe they found them another private let, or maybe they rehoused them in a hard to let area or somewhere they didn't want to move to, not a nice council house with a garden that decent people would give their eye teeth to get
I would suggest the episode should be standard viewing for the bleeding heart brigade who whine about greedy landlords and/or the lack of housing for benefit claimants.

She reminded me of a woman the housing association I worked for had to evict a few years ago. She hadn't paid any rent in 9 Months, yet she and her family were outraged that they were being evicted.
We were hoping to get another family into the property before Christmas but the vandalism to the house was that severe, it took nearly a Month to make the place habitable again.
I think she ended up in the end getting rehoused by another ha and doing the same again.

They sound like they could be related. Both feel the world owes them a living.
I don't normally get angry about anything on this show, but her self absorbed attitude riled me for some reason.
I don't like that dead eyed prick either. That's twice he's phoned the cops to cover his arse. Big man when he walks in to a situation. but can't back it up. Obnoxious cocksocket.
It nearly back fired on him in Stoke though as the cops never turned up, he won't learn though.
Paul has grown on me he swears a lot lol but i find him ok and he does seem to show sympathy towards some tenants he has to evict too.
Last show i felt really bad for that landlady those scumbags trashing her house like that.
Really annoys me seeing tenants behave like that - we rent, we have no other choice as my husband is disabled and I cannot work due to caring for him. However, all the time its 'No DSS/LHA', one could hardly blame them if they think we ll leave our homes in a state like that. (Having said that I dont recall hearing any mention of them being on benefits but you get my drift). We desperately need to move as now my eldest has left we are charged for having an extra room, but nowhere reasonable will allow us, despite having an excellent reference from our current landlords (been with them 18 years). Rant over
That last case was shocking, but I cant help wondering why the woman was not suspicious as she had "Parental classes" or whatever before the renting started. Surely she had some inkling of how the **** end Lil behaved, or perhaps shes a very good actor.

Lots of people grow up in dirty, scummy homes, with horrible parents. Local authority care is probably much more difficult to survive.:(
If we could only stop these morons having kids in the first place. >:(
How is she a 'poor woman'?

I said that last season. The whole fake radio voice irritates the crap out of me >:(
That family was utter scum. I'm not keen on landlords but there was no way that woman deserved what happened to her because of that family.
They should not have been rehoused at least not until they paid back all they owed.

How the hell can it be illegal? It's not illegal to look a bit like a policeman you know.
