    Ultimatum time! Tell him he is either a hiuse husband, and does all cooking, cleaning, washing and shopping, or he has 1 month that brings in at least £800 a month, otherwise he can move out.

    If he had any respect for you he would be doing all chores!
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    I don't think he is going to say "OK I'll pack my bags then" Voluntarily move out of a responsibility-free life with all living costs provided by his working wife??:rotfl:

    How could he find a new home and support himself after living off someone else for so long?

    The only way he might go voluntarily I suspect is by him finding someone else to sponge off.

    Some hopes!

    Very difficult times ahead I suspect.

    To the O.P. I haven't got any advice or information to offer, I would just say" Today is the first day of the rest of your life - best of luck...and get some legal advice" and maybe minimise as far as possible any finances at his disposal....he needs to learn to earn.
