Petition Action

child benfit should be for children living in uk

Additional Information

Child benefit should only be paid for those children living in this country. This would save £milions which could be used to help our under priviledged children. Why should we be paying for children who are not living here. It is obvious EU citizens from Poland etc will opt to claim here as our system is much more generous than theirs.(often 4times as much as they would get. It is common knowledge that our money is paying for new houses and cars abroad.
