  We now know he obviously did not really care for the children or he would not have set fire to the house when they were ALL asleep in bed and then relied on neighbours to rescue them. The pair of them could easily have had an 'accidental' chip pan fire when they were all out of the house.
  
  From what I have seen and read he seems to be greedy, controlling, intimidating and thoroughly nasty piece of work.
  Anne Widdicombe on the radio yesterday seemed convinced he did it to regain high benefit payments that were lost when the other side of his family moved out. I think the figure was £1,000 a month but I did not hear all the interview properly as I was busy in the kitchen.
  
  I am surprised that three adults and eleven children were cramped together in a three bedroom house but that is no excuse for what happened.
  
  Trying not to be political here Peter but there should be a cap on benefits one can receive, apart from food and sometimes shoes after a certain number of children costs are almost stagnant after all clothes and toys etc get handed down.
