Petition Action

Ban benefits for EU citizens arriving in the UK

Additional Information

The European Commission is proposing that any EU citizen can come to the UK and claim state benefits immediately; when this comes before the Houses of Parliament it should be rejected. Eligibility to benefits for any immigrants, whether EU or Non-EU, should be restricted until they have paid taxes to the Revenue for a period of 10 years.
