    What is your problem exactly? That you're being forced to move into a 6 bedroomed house??:eek:

    You were offered 2 hourses, either one good enough so why complain that you are being taken off the list.

    What do you want a grant for?

    A three bed house is more than enough for a family with 4 kids, two share a room and one get their own room...

    Are the houses not livable ?
    I can understand how a 3 bed maybe a bit cramped if it was 3 sons and a daughter or vice versa and a room wasn't big enough for them.
    A 6 bed seems an amazing offer to make you though.

    this is the reason the country has gone to sh*t.

    Somebody who doesnt have their own means to provide accomadation for themselves gets offered a 3bed house and refuses it as too small.

    Sorry OP but your an absolute disgrace. Your on welfare having money spent on your by a state that is bankrupt and you have the audacity to refuse to have your children share a room.
