A family of six are living in a two-bedroom, mice infested flat from hell, with conditions so bad that the mum, dad and their four children have to sleep in just one bedroom.

She is convinced the poor living conditions may have contributed. Falhado lives in one bedroom with her husband and four children; Yussuf, 12, Leben, 7 years, Yasmin, 5 and baby Qaseeda, seven months.
Falhado, from Hull, said: “It is just a nightmare. I try to keep the flat clean but it is just impossible.
