A COUPLE who won a whopping £4million jackpot are still insistent on staying in their £65-a-week council flat., have sparked outrage among some neighbours who felt it was shameful they didn't give up the property for a family on the waiting list.Meanwhile others claim the elderly pair are wonderful residents and should not be forced from their home of nearly 30 years.
A furious reader, Reginald Fidler, blasted the couple for staying put and penned: "They should have bought a place of their own ages ago and released the house for someone on the waiting list. "It's outrageous that they should be criticised for staying where they are - they love the place and their neighbours, so they are in no hurry to move out," they added.
The director added they have been tenants for a long time and "their rights remain the same" due to secure tenancy agreements.The couple had been living on £500 a month before scooping the £3.9million lottery jackpot.
