    What impresses me is that the quality of the debate

    It's because we're intelligent, mature adults. And anyone who says different can go take a jump in the lake.

    I am sorry to say your assumptions are wrong. My education is paid for by my home country and myself.

    In fact, once I am graduated I will probably pay 100 times more in taxes than you have done your whole life because I will get a job with a high income. Now I could move to an Asian country and pay 0% in tax but I quite like it here so I want to stay.

    I am at a point in life where I need a little help from the public but I will contribute back like I mentioned above.

    Also, UK is a member of the European union which means for example that you can move to my home country and claim benefits, so this is not a one street lane.

    Move to an Asian country then and earn all your money!! no need to claim benefits in this country???????????????

    RENTING? Have you checked to see that your landlord has permission from their mortgage lender to rent the property? If not, you could be thrown out with very little notice.
