Somalian refugee with 7 children are living in £2.1m luxury

Re: A Somalian refugee family with seven children are living
I just wonder if this gentelman was employed before, lost his job, looking for work, and now collecting whatever benefits that system allows, why his situation be used to scapegoate the poor? They are not saying he was a criminal; all they are saying is he is dependent on the system at this point + the politics involved despite his contribution to the system before. Why create a system that you later on blame people and the system itself? Why mention his nationality and ethnicity if escapegoating is not the motto of this article? I am not living in UK but all of the claim on this article is obvious that they are blaming trhe poor and since Somalis are voiceless, they are easy target. I remember Somali proverb that says "Miskiin baa misko la fuulo leh".
I did not even finish reading this article after reading the 1st three paragraphs.
I would say that Somali man should sue all of the media that is using his name and that of his family for their smear campaign against the poor and Somalis in particular. Mentioning his ethnicity and nationality is a something that can be proven in court that their intentions were not to report a news or to discuss the system but actually it is designed to escapegoat the poor, his name, and his ethnicity and nationality. If he is a British citizen, that is even better to prove that he and his family was escapegoated and they should never used his ethnicity to begin with.

Re: Somalian refugee with 7 children are living in £2.1m lu
A Somalian refugee family with seven children are living in a £2.1m luxury home in Notting Hill next door to celebrities, with the £2,000-a-week rent paid by the taxpayer. The sting in this tale is that the family were living in a £900-a-week Kensal Rise house in Brent, but chose to move as they didn't like living "in a very poor area" with "bad shops and schools"; £2,000 a week is the maximum private rent the state will pay for a large family. Abdi Nur, an unemployed bus conductor, tells the Mail how much better this suits his family as he shows off his home with its 50-inch flatscreen TV
