    'Husbands with multiple wives have been given the go-ahead to claim extra welfare benefits following a year-long Government review, The Sunday Telegraph can reveal.

    Even though bigamy is a crime in Britain, the decision by ministers means that polygamous marriages can now be recognised formally by the state, so long as the weddings took place in countries where the arrangement is legal.

        How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

          Does it give a list of countries where multiple wives is legal? I might just pop over there and harvest 100 or so and bring them back to a warehouse in Berkshire and start claiming the 100* welfare payments...

            It's fine. I can afford to look after my own kids.

                    OMG. FFS. WTF.
                    I do not believe this is happening. So now 1 migrant who becomes naturalised can bring in any number of wives?

                    This should be challenged under race laws as British men can not have multiple wives.
                    I am not qualified to give the above advice!

                    The original point and click interface by
                    Smith and Wesson.

                    Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time
