Stop immigrants & asylum seekers claiming housing benefit for mansions in expensive areas.
The news story below is one of MANY recently reported in the news, this is very unfair on UK taxpayers and should be stopped.
This couple were moved from their £1000 per month rented house to a new £8000 per month house just to be near friends. THIS IS WRONG. Changing the law in April for a select few is not good enough. I accept rents can be high in some areas but these people who have put nothing into the economy should not get this much out of it. The house that they had previously was generous enough for them.
'Unemployed Saeed Kahliif, 49, from Somalia, his wife Sayida and their children have been handed the keys to a sprawling six-bedroom home in West Hampstead, in North London.They will pay the rent on their luxurious six-bedroom house with a monthly £8,000 housing benefit. The house boasts a 90ft garden and is thought to be one of the most expensive houses ever paid for by housing benefit.'
