Not if they don't have to pay the council tax. They'll probably be better off. The greedy will be the worst off.

Here goes(sigh)

The State are 20 years ahead of what you are moaning about.

Legal stuff about having minorities having to be in a workforce are not for people from eastern Europe or dark skinned people they are for white people.

The mines and steel and industry where shut down along with apprenticeships because the State know that there would be an influx of Poles and other loser countries who where and are good at their job and would undercut people from here.
Would the State want people from all over Europe sleeping in the streets because they could not get a job?

People in Scotland and elsewhere started to get political and that's why they let Drugs flood the poor parts just to shut them up.


As i said the State at the time was right over the Poll Tax because they had the foresight to see 1 guy with 5 wifes and 10 weans paying nothing.

This is one of the unfairest parts of the current system. If everyone benefits from local services, then all those of working age should make a contribution.

Doing away with foreign aid would help.
Shocking

£12.4 billion this year – on foreign aid at a time when the NHS is facing a financial crisis and a £13 billion funding black hole is opening in elderly care.
