I think the problem with asylum seekers is entirely relevant to this case, I agree that there should be a hold on us accepting any more into our country until we manage to sort out the mess we're in.

I don't disagree with child benefit, I'm not a bit fan of housing benefit etc - we already have council estates, I don't think that the rest of the country living in our own moderately sized houses should have to contribute in anyway to this disgusting excuse for "benefits" for this woman! Maybe we should all quit our jobs and have loads of babies - then what?? Why should the rest of Britain have to pay for people who cheat the system on a regular basis??

I have no problem with working tax credits because its a top up of someone who is working's salary, but I don't think that anyone who is not working should get all that they do! Of course this woman has a million kids, how else can she avoid working for forever?? Why don't the government stop giving hand outs and offer free or cheaper childcare for families and single parents so that the parents can go back to working at least part time to contribute towards their own incomes in some way and have the rest topped up.

PS. Child benefit should be for the children yes, thats not always the case....take one look at Jeremy Kyle - all those shiny white trainers didn't grow on trees!

In that case, i hope as a country were not ever in that position!

Just to add on a personal note, My partners grandmother is a polish asylum seeker from the 2nd world war, my son would not be here today if it were not for being given refuge by this country plus several other countries. Not for their kindness she herself would have died as her family did having stayed in Poland, her mother died from the stress of it all in India. So as you can clearly see Asylum seekers are exactly that, here for Asylum from persecution not for handouts, although many of our own laws mean that they often Have to have benefits as they are not allowed to work for a certain amount of time

Well perhaps they should have thought about the financial implications of having 8 kids then !!!!

Obviously we know the historial implications of WW2 and she was genuine, no problem with genuine asylum seekers but there are a lot here and waiting to get here who are not. They bypass various other countries to get here, if they are that desperate they would go to the nearest one.
As i said in previous post, most seem to be young Afghan men which i'd say is a bit ironic seeing as our young men are in their country fighting their war.

Are you sure you mean Asylum seekers and not migrant immigrants?

As for Afghani men, they will have lived through war for all of their lives, wars not of their choice or making.
If i was in their position i would also not want to be there.
Soldiers make a career choice and can leave the army if they no longer want to serve.

Sorry they should be fighting for their country, my bgrandfather fought in WW2, he was at the Battle of Casino, good job he didn't hop it when the going got tough, where would Poland be ?

I expect British troops would be charmed !!!
