He doesn't even try to hide the fact that he's a parasite. I agree, the true heroes are the hardworking taxpayers who fund Steve's lifestyle and the upbringing of his 8 kids.

Gosh people in your position moan about nothing. His injuries didn't happen seperately they happened in one go. Losing a leg takes a long time to heal let alone both legs, injuries to his arm, eye and other injuries we don't know about.

Have the decency to not comment on something you know nothing about. Him having eight kids and not working isn't unusual today. And they are to different partners. Hes allowed to live his life as he please as long as he isn't hurting anyone.

How exactly are the taxpayers paying for him - as he gets an army pension!

The man also raises money for the injured soldiers charity - what is wrong with you!

I'm getting really sick of people like you - he gets an army pension for being so severly injured whilst doing his job and does a lot of charity work - he is a shining example and a much better person than many who do bugger all despite being able bodied ie John Bloody James!

He does a lot of charity work - is that not enough for you! Fgs - the man's life was ruined by that bomb, he was only 19 - can you not imagine what he has been through - what is the matter with some people! I think it is amazing that he has been able to go on and live such a normal life despite his horrific injuries.

If we didn't have men like him prepared to do such dangerous jobs - the world would be in a very sorry state and lot of the lazy people on here criticising - would be conscripted and forced to put their own lives on the line!

We don't know the circumstances of that - maybe she won't let him see them - maybe she is just a bitter ex!

Agree with Wombai 100%

People dont know the circumstances or truth's to his family life..
And people dont know the reasons behind him not working etc etc.

Charity/voluntary work should be done in your own time. I agree (and so does the government actually) that disabilty should not get in the way of paid employment.

If he can be part of Big Brother and produce a litter of eight children, then he can go to work.

I do agree that he should be compensated for his severe injuries.

He has a military pension. I'm really tired of saying this... can't all you people whining about him "not working and having eight kids" absorb the fact that he has a military pension? There are LOADS of threads about it already. Harping on with this same old tired, pathetic nonsense and is getting old. He lost both his legs and an eye in an explosion. Imagine that. Even if you don't think he's a good housemate... imagine the physical and mental trauma of the recovery. And the thing about being disabled is that accidents and tragedies happen all the time, leaving out the terrorist element for a moment, that could be any of us tomorrow. He deserves his pension. Let it go. If you're unhappy about it, contact the MOD and they'll tell you to let it go too...

Ignorance!! it seems that many can not imagine being in his situation, and I agree very much with what wombai says too. It just seems a waste of time explaining though. I'd be heartbroken if I was a member of his family reading some of the nasty comment about him.

Instead of spreading spiteful gossip - why don't you do your homework and find out what a guy receiving such severe injuries at such a young age in the service of his country - was likely to have received from his employer! Facts - not nasty, wild assumptions!

The guy has been through hell - and all you want to do is belittle him and attempt to turn others against him - pathetic! And for a silly tv show - god some people simply lack the very basic common decencies we would all hope most people have!

No. Generous state benefits funded by hard working people (disabled and otherwise) can, though.

What the hell do you know about his finances and how much army pension he gets!

No doubt your job, if you have one, will never result in you being blown up and losing both your legs and one of your eyes! His sacrifice is worth more than I expect he gets - after all losing your limbs is a far greater sacrifice than a few quid out of your salary every week!

whether we pay for him or not, it doesnt beat the fact that he does **** all in the house and NEEDS to be a part of that quad eviction!

I dont particularly like what Ive seen of this guy. I dont think it would make much difference were he to have both his legs and 2 eyes, he'd still be the same person......someone I dont like.


However if anyone is entitled to benefits its him just for the mental trauma alone but I think he will have had a good pension from the army....and deserved every penny of it....

Did I mention I still dont like him one little bit. Horrible man.

You should find out the facts before making such nasty allegations! Simples!

Without volunteers - young guys (you, if you are male) would be forced to do national service and could well find out first-hand what life has been like for Steve! Think on - before condeming him all the time!
