According to a government report£1,400,000(yes that is £1.4million)is claimed per MONTH by migrant workers in child benefit for children living abroad. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

The cash is paid to workers from EU countries without any checks to see if the children actually exist :shock: :shock:

Any wonder these immigrants pass through the likes of France/Germany/Holland to get to Britain.

Eh Bill, and am sure that EU migrant workers will include Germans/ Dutch / French workers now resident in the UK or was your point mainly aimed at citizens of the former Eastern European states now in the EU who are resident in the UK.

And no immigrants dont always pass through Germany / France and Holland to get to the UK, despite what you may read in the British press. Plenty of them actually stop in these countries too.

Anyway the benefits in these countries are far higher than in the UK - Plenty Brits here in Holland claiming to be looking for work but only here to sign on and get the higher benefits available here.

Well put , and very true. I'm grateful to bill, for bringing up current examples of xenophobic paranoia.
Nobody - without valid good reason - would leave the country of their birth - and as human nature dictates - love.
I would bet my last penny - that WTA - loves and misses Scotland. The only noticeable difference bill - is he recognises that the Netherlands is a foreign country - whereas your Britishness - blurs your own distinction of what constitutes foreign.
I find it heartening to know - that fellow Scots abroad - have such an enlightened attitude - one that truly carry's - some of Scotland's finest moral attributes - that lie deeply embedded - within our own distinct cultural identity.
Come hame bill - England may have fed yer belly - put a roof over yer heed - and gave ye a joab - Christ man - ye hif paid a high price. A hope you an the missus - enjoy your holiday - hope you fly the flag - it's blue and white. :shock: :wink:

£4000 that is the amount this governmet is paying illegal immigrants to return to the country where they came.

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT,now to me that means they have no right to be here,so why are they not just put on the first plane out and end of story?
