If what Flapjack said is true:
"Total UK welfare 140bn
cost of asylum seekers under 1bn.

So less than 0.7% of that fraction of tax that goes on benefits is spent on asylum seekers, including the ones who are rightfully here."

then you're really barking up the wrong tree. In fact if that's all that's being spent on them I would strongly advise you to turn your wrath onto the legions of British scroungers as evidently they're the ones causing the problem.

Oh and as to immigrants families costing the taxpayer money in services, again I think you'll find that the families of British scroungers are costing us much much more.

As a result if you give a shit about reducing the vast majority of the tax spent on benefits I'd suggest that you'd be better served arguing for benefit reform (as I do) rather than stopping immigration.

We can't kick out British scroungers, but we can stop giving the cunts money to piss up the wall and smoke away. That, my friend, is where the problem with the benefits system lies and talk of immigration really is the stuff of Daily Mail headlines.

The right wing press give much more of a shit about the 'traditional British way of life' (TM) being changed rather than the monetary cost, but they bleat on about it all the same in order to give force to their argument.
