    there are those that believe in little green men and invisible Dieties.

    I suspect this can happen in their home countries if you look at the americanisation of places like Japan.

      That's what I like about cretins - eventually they make some stupid ignorant comment.

        How many families last year received more in benefits than the proposed government cap of £26,000?

        Around 58,000 households will have their benefits reduced by the policy in 2014-15. Greater numbers are affected by other welfare changes.

          Try to answer the question rather than go on a tangent because you were caught talking utter tulipe - yet again

          Your own link shows benefits are not more generous than comparable countries are they?

            that's what I hate about arrogant feckwits they insist on contributing nothing to discussions they don't understand.

              You haven't answered the question; which benefits are too generous, compared to which European country? AFAIK the German and Dutch unemployment benefits are more generous, the Dutch invalidity and sickness benefits are more generous, and I don't know about the Scandinavians?

                  doesn't matter if they are more than comparable countries,its if we pay more than the home country. if people pass through the comparable countries to get here then there must be a reason. Maybe the comparable countries don't allow the immigrant to claim (in France I hear stories of bureaucratic obstacles claiming) ?

                  obviously anyone with analytical skills would think of such things.

                    People like you are the reason why business feels it needs more immigrants: lazy natives who type tulipe on forums all day.
                    That's not going to change.
