He could easily be a 4th or 5th generation immigrant whose family has contributed greatly to this country. Furthermore, just because his political party is Islamlic does not lead to the conclusion that there is anything wrong with that - at least he is working for the community and making himself useful. In my view, his biggest issue is the fact that he appears to have no appreciation for his responsibility to society and to his own family by having 11 kids when he clearly cannot afford it. ANd if contraception is a problem, abstemsion should not be.
But �27k for a teacher? Please. No wonder the education system is so up the spout if they are being paid peanuts.

And let's not forget that his eleven children will each end up having eleven children who in turn will each have eleven children, and if their father's influence is anything to go by, they will also claim benefits. Multiply this situation by the number of families that take the 'benefits road' and the whole benefits system as well as the ailing health service will collapse through sheer weight of numbers!
