SIR – Wajid Hussain (pictured) was evicted from a three-bedroomed house where he lived alone and paid no rent (T&A, August 7).
He said he could not claim benefit, but has cost the taxpayers tens of thousand of pounds for his legal costs. Now he says he will leave the UK.
Should we declare a day of mourning?
Maybe he is going to a land where a single person gets a three-bedroomed house for free.
We need to make cuts in public spending. Mr Hussain’s departure should help with this. Why did it take three years to get him to go?
