More than a million migrants benefited from the universal credit welfare scheme in Britain at a cost to the taxpayer of £7.6 billion in 2023 alone, an analysis of official data has found.
Projections based on Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) data conducted by the Centre for Migration Control (CMC) have estimated that around 1,158,000 foreign nationals received universal credit, a monthly welfare subsidy paid to working-age households with low incomes, to mitigate the cost of housing, childcare, and other expenses. Migrants are eligible for the same benefits as native Britons once they are granted either refugee status or indefinite leave to remain in the country.
A freedom of information request from the think tank went on to reveal that households with at least one foreign inhabitant received a total of £7.6 billion in universal credit in 2023, The Telegraph reported. The CMC said that this would likely continue to increase given the record numbers of foreigners allowed into the UK under the former Tory governments.

I saw show on this scam. They go to work at a parking garage for one week, get a pay stub, then quit and go on welfare

And meanwhile... the hard-working, over-taxed, victimized citizens of the UK are forced to pay more, get less, and keep their mouths shut, or else. Kinda like how America would be if the Democrats ever get their way. Slavery is the leftists’ favorite form of “”democracy””.
Is that human filth George Soros shorting GB again?
It fluctuates but 7.6 billion British pounds is $9,855,091.23 United States Dollars.

Right... but it’s the exact same grift/con-game going on there that went on here under the OBiden regime. Migrants getting free everything while struggling, legal American citizens are forced to pay for it all.
The UK needs to be set free from their globalist, totalitarian leftist “masters”. In the olde days, we would send in CIA operatives to combat the commies from within that nation. Now... the commies are combating “us” from within, instead. I long for a return of the good ole days. Maybe under Trump 2.0 we can revist that past.
Amazing how the west is slitting thier own throat’s, the invaders just have to sit back watch and wait.
