Europe Releases Proposals to Keep U.K. In Europe

Post by GAMES »

Why should EU citizens living in UK get welfare? That doesn't even make sense.

Refugees, i understand, but EU member citizens?

IIRC that's not true. EU citizens get welfare from the country they came from for a limited amount of time.

You might be right, but I read somewhere that EU citizens from countries like Poland who live in the UK can claim welfare.

Because UK citizens get welfare across the EU. Its a two way situation.

That's really stupid law though. What if a lot of EU citizens tried to move to UK and draw welfare? That's gonna bankrupt the country.

I am with UK not being part of the EU. They get nothing back from Brussels and have everything to lose.

What planet do you live on? Biggest trading/political/social/economic partner. Access to the largest single market. Worldwide influence. Millions of UK jobs through trade and export. 2 million Brits live in EU countries. Free/cheap university for British students there. Enormous agricultural and development grants/subsidies for NI/Northern England/Wales. Massive science/research funding. Affordable holidays.

Case closed bro.

Oh ok, i didn't know they get all that from EU. I watched couple of UKIP videos on YouTube and they made it seem like the EU was taking their sovereignty away.

Cool sxb. :up:

Cold hard facts:

1. EU mainland citizens have lower rate of claiming benefits in the UK compared to British and other non-EU nationalities.

2. It's two way street. UK citizens are a heavy burden in Spain. That's not even considering that Britons living there tend to not speak Spanish, let alone, attempt to learn the language.

3. Currently, there is a net contribution between the UK and rest of Europe in terms of economy.

4. Mainland EU citizens have to work or at least, attempt within 3 months of arriving. They could also show that they're not a burden to the UK.

Lastly, Somalis benefit far more staying in the EU. Most Somalis are currently pro-EU.

No prob bro :up:

UKIP exaggerates too much. They're funny to watch and Farage is a good orator, but their policies are backward, regressive and sometimes even retarded. They're a 1 issuw party. Their economic policy is non-existent, most of their manifesto is waffle.

I Want those Eastern Europeans gone, all they bought is trouble and violence. They seem to get all the jobs these days because they work for so little. If it was not for them minimum wage would be much higher. I don't wind Western Europe or Scandinavians.
