Mum demands move from Battle Hill council house as daughters 'too scared' to live there

A mum is desperate to move home with her two young daughters due to threats - but claims the police and council aren't helping her.

Stacey Irvine has lived in Battle Hill, Wallsend, with her daughters Ellie, 12, and Lexi, seven, for around three years. The 32-year-old said threats have been made to put her windows out, burn her house down and stab her and her eldest daughter.

On Monday this week, two of the kitchen windows of the property, which is owned by North Tyneside Council, were smashed with a metal pole. She said the incident left her children terrified and they are now staying with a relative.
