Benefits To Immigrants
In the light of recent events clearly something must be done urgently to stem the flow of immigrants into this country. Could the solution be to restrict all benefits to those who have lived in this country, and contributed to its public purse, for, say, a minimum of five years?

If you read my initial response Naomi, you will note that I was actually talking to Svejk who had mentioned my age- and anecdotal evidence is always brought into any debate, including mentions of people's families, so sorry you will just have to accept the answers given since this is a public forum and also note that I am bowing out of this thread ( we cross posted). Enjoy your thread :)
I have read with interest all the comments on this, do you think it will change regards the UK Hand out's? "No Chance" Why? I understand the rules of the EU but I think the Government should tell the EU and their stupid rules to keep their nose out, this is the UK & we should rule it not some toss pots in Brussels.
I noted that Ray Mears suggested that the 500,000 who went on the waggon trains across what is now the US and the 1.5 million who followed once the railways were built was possibly one of the greatest human migrations in history. Recently the BBC confirmed that it is likely that 3.75 million have entered the UK following the opening of our borders to Eastern Europe under the last Labour government.
Is there any precedent in human history for such an inundation? I really doubt that there is. Already our NHS, schools, housing, and roads are collapsing under this deluge of humanity. Also, the implications for our young people looking for work are dire, given that some UK jobs are not even advertised in this country anymore.
I'm a vet not a historian so I lack the knowledge to know whether the UK inundation does in fact set a precedent in human history. However, as someone who has lived in the UK since the fifties watching the madness unfold before my eyes, there is surely no match in all the human so-called democracies for the total betrayal of a people by their leaders!
Over the next century we will pay the price for their incompetence. At worst we could have a civil war. At best we will become a collapsed economy, optimistically on a par with Haiti. I say optimistically because Haiti only has an estimated population of 10.4 million whereas we are predicted to have a population of 125 million within the next 50 years!
Future historians will write that the political class of the UK were the most narcissistic,, self-serving, careerist, dullards that have ever been democratically allowed power in all of recorded human history.
