WHY BRITAIN IS SPONGERS' HEAVEN
Wednesday, 24th February 2010
MEDDLING EU judges sparked outrage last night after giving scrounging foreigners the green light to sponge thousands of pounds from British taxpayers. In a blow to millions of hard-working Britons, immigrants will now be entitled to claim rent, income support, council tax and a host of other benefits simply if their children go to school in the UK. They will be able to claim the cash even if they don’t have a job, UK citizenship or any genuine claim to live in this country.
Critics fear the landmark ruling will open the “floodgates” to a wave of foreigners seeking state support from Britain with no intention of putting anything back into the country.
Councillor Barry Macleod-Cullinane, of Harrow Council, said: “We are very concerned with this outcome, as it appears to establish a major new legal precedent over benefit claims. “It could well prove to be a floodgates judgment in that people who have not yet contributed to this country or who do not have the means to sustain themselves can now seek immediate help from state welfare services.” He added: “#We are now seeing a European Court determining British immigration policy.# This judgment would seem to make this policy of free movement impossible unless one greets new migrants at Heathrow with sizeable welfare handouts.
