however, the other face of medalion must be examined .. I dont think Uk workers/citizens are given all those benefits quickly.. instead it took long time I think..
although I dont know the details of those benefits.. imo community must guarantee that you dont starve if you are jobless.. besides most of those companies offer really unacceptable money for work.. its valid also here..
as an example legally minimum salary here is around 250£ monthly.. from that how you will pay home rent, food, bills and transport and health 
thats impossible.. 
you cant live with that money even in a village.. most of those families work with all children wife and husband so that they combine the salaries and live together.. and believe me thats not life..
In much of Eastern Europe, a big percentage of people still work in agriculture, especially village small holdings, so they can survive, with a very, very hard life if no paid job and just a hard life if you have a typical badly paid small town / village position (wages in big towns and cities are much higher). It is a hard manual life, but it also instills a very strong work ethic as in these villages their productivity scheme which is learnt at a very young age as children have their small family chores, is work and grow food, raise animals etc. or starve. Family bonds and community bonds are also very strong as they are all very much in this together. The lazy and alcoholics in this village life, tend to make a living by stealing anything they can get their hands on.
In good families they appreciate the value of education, so they tend to work hard at school as they know a good education and qualifications is an escape route from poverty, along with migration to use these skills in a big city. This is why there are many hard working skilled workers in Eastern Europe that are attracted to the very high salaries and standard of living in the EU and UK compared to their own countries wages.
In Eastern Europe corruption and petty theft is rife as a legacy of communism and very poor wages in the public services. Getting a job in the right place in the civil service like customs, tax enforcement, the police, as a doctor or teacher etc. can turn these very poorly paid jobs into very lucrative positions if you are so inclined and love your thick brown envelopes.
Unfortunately, we have in this country a lazy, fe-ckless life pays culture, with a small but significant percentage of the population. Breeding from 14 upwards gets you on the gravy train. The more you breed the more you get, lots of children means lots of benefits with this lifestyle of choice then being passed on to the next generation. Playing the benefits system (legally or illegally) to the maximum is part of their upbringing and their trade. Knowing how not to get caught when signing on at multiple dole offices, cash in hand working, faking disabilities are all skills and tricks of their trade. Any other skills and education are treated with derision, which along with the life owes me attitude, means they are not generally employable and if they were it would only be at minimum wages. Life on the dole like this gives a much better lifestyle than actually working at minimum wages.
For economic migrants if you can get asylum here from any third-world country then you have hit the jackpot as you get the full range of benefits, free education for your children and free treatment for all diseases, like AIDS, TB, Malaria etc. If you want to work or not is optional and why bother when you have an unimaginable lifestyle and standard of living compared to your home country.
