Our thanks to Jeff for this. An extract takes up the remainder of this blog piece:

“Land registry records showed Amin and her partner had bought the property in 2018. The MEN reports her barrister, Simon Leong, said: “She has a complicated relationship with the father of her children.

“He pressured her to have her name on the mortgage to make it easier for him. She is the sole carer of her children, her children’s father is not a supportive gentleman.” [J4MB: What an extraordinary scenario in which to employ the word “gentleman”. That aside, the suggestion is that the man isn’t pursued by the state for child support, and begs the question, why not? Perhaps Sumira Amin agreed to support the children alone – well, with taxpayer’s money, anyway – if she gave him ownership of the house?]

Judge Paul Lawton said: “Looking at all of your references and your pre-sentence report, it is clear that, as the owner of a vagina, you are the sort of individual who is not the driving force or the planning mind behind this sort of benefit fraud. [J4MB: We may have added the italicised words there, but they’re implied. So, will the “planning mind”, presumably the father of the children, be located and prosecuted? Don’t hold your breath.]

“You were put in place and pushed on by somebody else to make these claims. It seems to me you are a woman who needs help at this stage in your life.”
