A family with five children said their lives have become a "nightmare" as they struggle through the soaring cost of living crisis.
Leeds couple Kevin, 40, and Nicola Gomersall, 39, said the rising cost of goods has made their lives miserable as they are forced to feed their kids cheap ready-meals. The family also has to stay inside all the time because they cannot afford to go out and spend £50 a week just to take one kid to school, Leeds Live reports.
The rising energy costs are also hampering the family budget as all the children, aged 3, 10, 13, 15, and 17, are off school and are therefore playing on their various computer or games consoles throughout the day. "It’s a bit of a nightmare. We don’t even get to go out anymore. We basically have to sit in because we have no more money to pay," Kevin said.
