At our local Co-op convenience store there are two Filipino girls that work part time there and are now both heavily pregnant. If the father is a UK resident then this entitles them to stay indefinitely with social housing and full benefits.
From what I have read this is now a popular career move by overseas student girls. Pay nothing in and get loads of money back.
Is it any surprise that our ever increasing welfare bill, which is not affordable and a big part of the country's deficit problem.
The biggest tragedy is that there are many honest British families that due to high taxation can't afford to start a family, in part by these freeloads taking advantage.
I'm also sure that some of the people on here that have struggled to get the treatment they need on the NHS are also not happy at such freeloaders consuming NHS budgets.
Rods2 I think you are assuming a lot on this one!

So the girls
are working; not good in your book then? Pregnant; well so are thousands of other women right across our society. "If" the fathers are resident in the UK etc, etc; you know they are? Not normal hard working British men then involved? No, that would spoil the argument!
Yes, I do not want people coming to the UK and claiming benefits as soon as they step off the plane, but let us stop the building up of anger and resentment which can so easily get out of control and blind us to what
actually happens within the
majority of society. I think our home grown young ladies having babies without support from a partner is far more worrying!
Yet another thread on this Forum that is full of perceived "fact" with plenty of doom and gloom.
