I have a close friend who works for the Benefits Agency and she says "we are paying people in Eastern Europe child benefit etc when their parents have worked here for 6 months.
They work here for say 6-9 months , make a claim and then go back home and we ARE paying child benefit.......
She has no reason to lie, no axe to grind Lemon. There are many,many people who work there who are frustrated with the system and rules...
Its Not and urban myth, she has questioned the rules along with others and are told "thats the rules and criteria".......
Now the migrant workers may return here and work again I agree, but the FACTS are above.0 -

Where are these rules?'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is. A single market without barriers visible or invisible giving you direct and unhindered access to the purchasing power of over 300 million of the worlds wealthiest and most prosperous people' Margaret Thatcher0 -
if a massive lefty came home and found a load of people living in his home, eating his food and contributing nothing, he would demand they leave his house. On a personal level, this seems to be ok, but on a national level you are a racist if you are concerned that your child is in school where English is the mother tongue of only three kids out of 345.
These leftys need to ask themselves - why are asylum seekers in France (the last time I looked, a safe country) literally killing themselves to get here? It isn't because they have a duty to help British society (or what is left of it after 12 years of these self hating lefties in charge). It is for the free house, the free money, the free education and the free health care (which isn't really free at all, but paid for by the tax payer). I would happy to let any immigrant in or any asylum seeker, provided they are given nothing, and not allowed to use any public service for the first 7 years of their stay. If they arrive, get a job, look after themselves for 7 years, then fair dos.
The Govt wouldn't even have to waste money on border patrols because no one would come, except decent hard working people.
Then once that is sorted, we can work on eradicating our own sub human chav grasping class. The first thing to go should be any help for teen parents, especially single one. I am not saying they can't have kids, they can have as many as they want - but they shouldn't get a single penny from the govt. I struggle to pay for my own kids and waited until I was of a certain age, so I could afford (just about) to raise them. Why should my tax go to pay for these idiots? There is a 100% safe way for these girls to not get pregnant - if they can't do that, then fine, but live with the consequences and don't ask the tax payer to bail you out. These people are scum and they breed like rabbits and will eventually drag us all down with them.
You know its the truth.

what gets me is the effect of lots of immigration on the social cohesion of Britain. I don't think that the recent popularity in the BNP is a coincidence.
the point is, and this is what the lefty will not accept, is that people like to be amongst their own. if i moved to say, india, I would probably move to an area where there are other brits. the poles etc do the same here and create ghettos, because despite coming the UK, they still want to be with other Poles, not the English! These areas tend to be poor areas and the residents don't like it.
It is that simple.0 -
I actually think NO one should be "entitled" to ANY benefits until they have paid into the tax system for a good few years, irespective of colour and nationality.
I would totally agree with White Horse on the pathetic governing that we've endured for the last 12 years.......
Lets not forget the last Tory government were dishing out Council houses to 17 year old single mums years before Tories 2 (Nu Labour ) came to power..0 -

My point was that these rules should be a result of Euro or UK law so should be feely available.'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

If I went to live in Spain the last place I would wish to be is with a load of whinging Brits :eek:'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

The other issue is that there a lot more brits working/living abroad than non-Brits working here :rolleyes:
I would love to see them being asked to move back to UK :rotfl:0 -
