| Benefit claims by Eastern Europeans double in one year Benefit claims by Eastern Europeans have more than doubled in the past year as migrants continue to arrive at the rate of 700 a day, ministers admitted. Almost 129,000 newcomers are receiving payments such as tax credits - up from 55,000 12 months ago, the Home Office said. The payments by the taxpayer are worth an estimated £145million a year. The figures emerged in a blizzard of documents on immigration, asylum and foreign criminals published by Whitehall. These also revealed that between July and September this year, a further 56,000 immigrants from Poland and the other seven countries which joined the EU in May 2004 have arrived - taking the total to 743,000........ Benefit claims by Eastern Europeans double in one year to £145m | the Daily Mail We have enough British scroungers without importing more. How anyone from europe and can just start claiming benefits from day one is just scandalous. Its time to shut the door and boot out all those low paid and unskilled workers in jobs, Brits could do. |
