Lets blame people on benefits again... is David Cameron back? I am HAPPY to pay benefits for BRITS but unfortunately my taxes don't go toward brit's do they?
I agree but what you can't have is working people being worse off than people on benefits. You see it everyday people getting luxury off the backs of working people.
I was thrown off incapacity benefit years ago despite having a serious autoimmune disease. Some days I couldn't get up unaided and could barely walk yet I was deemed "fit to work" and treated like a scrounger despite being genuine and having paid into the system all my working life! Disgusting!
@@stevebishop4926 research what an autoimmune disease is. It's far more than not being able to lift something because you've got a bad back, or walk far because your legs are sore.
Yes, same ole diversion tactics. How soon people forget IDS and his clamp down on the villainous sick that caused suicides, and hardships to many. Even he admitted it had gone further than he meant it to. Same clamp down still in place today, and now they want to do even more. Shame on them.
It was inevitable this would happen. The government are beginning to look at cuts due to illegal immigrants who live off the state until the Home Office process claims which takes years. I wonder what the government will target next? Starts with illness and those who need help…this is a pattern. The conversation is demeaning to those who genuinely need help. Start with the UK rising population and the thousands that have invaded our shores.
This has been going on since Cameron was PM and Osborne was Chancellor. They called all the cutbacks austerity measures! Nothing to do with immigration.
We have a depression coming we have 150 percent of debit to GDP which means we are a banana republic these guests who think we have a robust economy go and look at the 2 year and 10 year yield inversion before they open their mouths we are going to be a 3 world country with in the next decade
Their looking for cuts they should start by talking a pay cut themselves they could save money by not funding the proxy war in Ukraine im stead they attack the most vulnerable people who caused inflation they did how to bring inflation down simple easy solution make institutions hold more capital reserve requirements above 0 this would contract the money supply job done
@@BonusHoleits not about immigration its about the increase in the money supply which has caused the inflation we have seen nothing yet inflation is going to rise further and further we are going to see hyperinflationary depression this is by design by 2025 cbdcs are going to be rolled out across the globe they are going to create a crisis after crisis Putin has hacked into the UK banking system all ATMs will not work for a number of days possibly weeks this will be a lie the truth is that the debt market has calapesed this will cause a lockup of the credit markets even people's credit cards won't work in this scenario we came close to it in 2008 don't believe me do your own research on this
Short memory. Immigrants contributed to this Country. UK invited the British West Indians to do the jobs that the British refused to do. They did not have the privilege of good housing, their salaries were poor, some banks would not give them a loan to have a mortgage. They had it tough, it was not easy and fortunately through hard work and determination some retired and are enjoying their retirement in the West Indies.
@@veronicaboyce6794 I'd go and re read a history book if I were you. They were not invited, forced or cajoled into coming here. They did not build Britain. All this is just nonsense perpetuated for so long that some people believe it. Read about Irish navigators. Sorry to spoil your imaginary history 😁
Well they have to find money from somewhere to support all the uninvited ‘guests’ to the country. How many millions a month is it now? And they need good quality accommodation….and don’t forget all the old complaints about the food which will have to be addressed.
For the last 15 or 20 years our standard of living has steadily gone down. Our people have been and are in direct competition with the foreigners that have been allowed in. A lot of companies are now foreign owned, and they employ their own before our people. They can make more money this way especially if they are employed from an agency abroad shipped in and then live in accommodation they provide. God knows where the younger generation will be working in the future, the government have facilitated our downfall with all these migrants. Who will employ the natives? when the migrants will work cheaper, they also get more help financially than the natives do able to get grants and loans from the EU and government to setup businesses. It's not a level playing field for the natives. Worst of all is the fact that politicians local and nationally never talk about any of this. There is a conspiracy of silence against the public. WE WERE NEVER ASKED
You are so right George, Its good to hear you say it. I've made this point frequently. Wages in some sectors stagnated for years because of cheap labour, often young men who lived in multi occupancy properties. Not that it was their fault but many British people couldn't live and raise a family on those wages. The company owners benefitted greatly though.
I have been self employed all my life ( no work no pay) but I can understand people these days NOT wanting to work or start a business, because how much you try to advance yourself the government and system knocks you down, and you can see other people and illegal immigrant getting along nicely on benefits without working, so there is no incentive to work hard
Likewise I concur with your comment, I've also been self employed all my working life often scratching a living through hard times. There are to many people sucking at the state tit and many who need to find a backbone, let alone adding more through immigration. I didnt get one day off through the pandemic or any financial help, had a heart attack at 50 and stent fitted and was back to work within a week as I had bills to pay. Like you say, only paid for what I produce, and holidays seem to be what other people do. The two guests speaking on GBNews haven't got a clue about who takes the strain or makes the sacrifices.
theres no incentive because of minimum wage.. 15-20 years ago there was time and a half double time trebble time etc now theres only minimum wage or no job and like everyone else that has half a brain its not worth my time working for minimum wage working myself till im sick in order just to live. these days you work overtime you get basicaly half your wage taken from you before you even get your paycheck thoes are the things that need changed im sick of working hard just to survive not able to save because gready companies wont pay decent wages most stick to minimum wage or 1 or 2 quid above normal which in these times just isnt enough to comfortably live
My ex worked for the state, got 6 MONTHS off on full pay and if still supposedly I'll 6 MONTHS on HALF PAY. This bloody madness and never should have been allowed to get to this position
A guy that was an alky was told oh you need these benefits no problem. A person with no legs was told they were fit to work despite also being partially sighted... F'd up
I am a 50+ Yr old man, I served in the British Army for 9 years, I've worked 24yrs as a long distance truck driver, but list my licence through ill-health (stroke and heart attacks), this Ied to a mental breakdown which led to suicide ideation and mental health care, during that mental health care it was discovered I wasn't "normal" I was presenting differently to the more usual suicide ideators. I was sent to a different mental health team to see if I had a different issue altogether. They concluded I did have a condition called Autism. I'm an autistic man, my entire life has been filled with situations, tasks, and roles I've been very uneasy with, talking with others being near other people the last goes on and on, but nit knowing I was autistic for 50 years meant I thought this was normal to feel and dislike these things, to want to exclude yourself only that I was better at doing so and saying "no I don't want too". Turns out you want to do those things together, to mix, socialise, talk, etc I don't. I have been agoraphobic my entire life and suffered the living nightmare all day long. When it was understood by my thoracic surgeon that I was autistic he put the daily stress and fear I've lived with my entire life as the reason for the heart attacks, too much stress and anxiety. Now I live alone, no family, no friends, indoors all day every day, NEVER venturing outdoors not even for milk or bread. I make no phone calls to people write no emails to anyone, I have no-one to write too nor would want to uf there were anyone. I don't want to deal with people, deadlines, rules or society, I need to be ME. I must be alone, uncluttered, and unobstructed by the world outside. Stopping my disability payments and limited capacity for work would place me in a situation of dire circumstance. I will be unable, no matter what you do to me to go to work. To you normal folks that is just hyperbole, but as an autistic person that is quite literal. I have realised since being diagnosed autistic by the NHS that my entire life was fake up to the point of diagnosis. Nothing I had experienced in life was genuine or normal (for me), it was a series of anxiety driven scenarios each accumulating with the earlier scenarios to bring greater fear anxiety and worry to my mind and soul, this is why that now I'm agoraphobic because I want to distance myself from ALL potential future fears and anxieties, had I been able to limit them to when I was comfortable or to the point I could end them without fear of retribution then perhaps I could still function in society. Forcing autistic people like myself to go against their inner fears and perform tasks work with others etc when the very condition is called autism (autos = _greek_ alone within oneself + ism = of a thing or condition) is to be isolated, forcing connections with the world is dangerous and cruel. The danger comes as the fears and anxieties lead to suicides, the cruelty comes as those people suffer for the pyrsestrings of govt happy to give themselves pay rises while forcing such tortures. If govt want to cut longterm sick and disability benefits, they should first promise to have no more MP pay increases or expenses increase for the next 5 years. Then, look to cut the benefits for the same period, and reintroduce them after 5 years when the MP's apply for their pay rises. If there is no money to care for the most vulnerable in society, then there is no money for MP wage increases
@TheUnorthodoxy Hi, I just read your message and it breaks my heart to hear how you've suffered for years. My heart goes out to you. I totally understand what you've explained - I know someone in a very similar situation. I am 63 and haven't been able to work since 2015. If I was forced to go back to work, I know I'd be dead within a week. I don't have Autism, and I can't imagine what it is to have it. I hope and pray, the powers that be, don't force you off benefits - it is those of us who are genuinely ill who should not be forced by this vile Government. It seems that illegal migrants have more rights than those of us born here - and you even put your life on the line in the forces for our country. I wish Guy Fawkes could come back - and do a better job this time eh!! Take care, and I hope and pray you will be safe from the monsters running this country. X
This is very relatable to me, 15 years ago I was kept in a chemically induced coma for four days as they fought to save my life. I had been restrained and handcuffed to the hospital bed to stop me 'escaping' when I just wanted to spend my final moments in peace. I feel a constant sense of shame and guilt at being on benefits, of being a burden to society. I'm okay with being taken off them, but the aforementioned situation should also be stopped. If continuing isn't viable for an individual alone, then it only seems fair to either support them, or, let them have control over their own life.
company's showing more and more profit every year no thought of the staff or looking after the good ones. all most think about is the money / profit not the staff. sorry but look after the staff pay them right and the staff helps look after the company.@@shh_you_are_wrong
@@shh_you_are_wrong well the corporations don't need such high profits and ridiculous dividends they don't need to buy another yacht and second property when most cannot own basics of a home and car.
They tried that already. They put MPs into a similar position in the past some kind of PR exercise or expriment and nothing came of it except that it reinforced the view that it was possible to live on £60 a week. Those MPs involved in this experiment became the most ardent of those demonising those in receipt of welfare payments.
Would that be any different? As a manager, I was frustrated, how staff would go off sick with a trivial matter, and then submit a sick note for a month! I suspect GPs signed them off, just to get rid of them.
Exactly. When you have a DWP medical (I use the term very loosely) you should have somebody who knows about your illness. A nurse, paramedic or physiotherapist should not be allowed to overrule the decision your GP or Specialist.
Let's put thing in to perspective regarding benefits for the sick. I currently receive less a year in sickness benefit than I did working 18 years ago! Every few years you have to go through the rigmarole of filling out a form and normally have to have a face to face DWP "medical" (I use that term very loosely) Despite my GP and Specialists saying I am not fit to work, (I've got 2 heart conditions, kidney disease and suffer from depression) I got a physiotherapist declaring I was fit for work. I then had to fight for the pittance they give me by taking the DWP to a tribunal. All the waiting puts a huge strain on you mentally.
Yes, my wife was assessed by a 6 stone 14 year old physio trying to tell her she could work when she has more things than i can list, joke, appealled and won.
@@allanstack7016 Had to appeal too. Took less than 5 minutes to win. Used my PIP report stating I could walk less than 50 metres. ESA report said I had poor upper body strength and would not be able to move an imaginary wheelchair.
I am 63, and will be 64 in January. The NHS caused me to become very ill, and eventually it turned into M. E. In 2010. I became unemployed and took any job going, from cleaning to shop work and factory work. From the age of 13, I worked 21 hours, 7 days a week, doing a paper round, out in all weathers. From 14, I took on a 3 hourly Saturday job - on top of the paper round, until I was 16. I left school at 16 and started a full-time office job. From the age of 20, I worked 6 days a week doing shifts as a telephonist. Throughout the 1990's in my 30's, I did 2 to 3 jobs a week. From the age of 40, I worked 45 hours a week. When I became unemployed, I took on a voluntary office job (in 2012), but I was so ill with M. E. I was told to leave the voluntary job, and get myself well. So from 2015, I was too ill to seek employment, and was forced to apply for ESA Support Group benefit. Then they put the retirement age, up to 66. I cashed in 2 old work pensions, with the Government taking 25% for themselves, and I lived on the pension early payout until it ran out - I'd only worked at the 2 jobs for 4 years each job. So now I'm forced to live on £7,000 a year. I have no savings, and live in a council flat. I can only afford bills and food. I'm too ill to go out more than once a week. I'm stuck at home, and am alone. I'd give my eyes teeth to be able to work - for the money AND the company. But when I do go out (only to get food), I am very ill when I get home, after just 2 hours of being out. All I can do us go to bed. I don't have a life, it's an existence. If I was forced to go out to work, I'd be dead in a week. I have a body full of silicone, where the NHS botched up an operation, and it makes me very ill, I also now have diabetes, arthritis, asthma, hernia, M. E., silicone poisoning to my lymph nodes, deafness and other medical issues. My life is already over. If my benefits are stopped, I'd go and have a covid jab, as my best friend died after her jab last year. Then I can go on to the next life and rest in peace at last. Yet illegal yobbos come here and get everything for doing absolutely sod all. They'll all turn on us soon anyway, so either way I'm screwed.
I’m so sorry to hear of your plight. Of course you and others like you deserve better. A lot better, but will never get it under the present tyrannical government and system. All I can say is please do try and be positive none of it is your fault or doing. There are many in the same boat you’re not alone . And don’t take the jibby you may find it makes things even worse .
My other half works for local government. If they're ill, they get 6 months full pay and 6 months half pay. If they come back for six months, they're then entitled to the same again. There are two members of staff that have been off for over three years total between them with 'general work related stress', and they can't get rid of them as their absence is because of 'illness'. All paid for by the public. One of them has been on holiday in Spain 'de-stressing' for almost the entire time. One rule for government, one for everyone else.
I know a girl, three kids, nearly 40 and hasn't worked a day in her life. Claiming benefits and her partner lives with her, probably undeclared. Has a free house, driving a decent car and always getting her hair and nails done. WTF is that all about??
We pay the royal family 100 milion a year frankly far more than that in truth everything britain has ever achieved or won in wars goes to the royal family not britain and your crying about someone who gets enough to live a respectable life ?
I also have a 19 year old with autism and mental health he struggled to go to school so unless they can find a job to meet my sons needs because he will struggle he struggles with crowds noise bright lights due to sensory issues so who will employ him having these needs? Sadly bosses are to picky about how they employ but people with disabilities are discriminated against someone like my son would be compared to someone who does not have he’s needs My sons melt downs scare me and he would be sacked having the kind of melt down he has again there is no help or it’s very slow when it comes to mental health in this country Sadly he has asd adhd social phobia extreme generalised anxiety disorder low moods with no confidence and sleep problems as a mother it worries me how he will cope when I’m no longer around to help him with he’s needs I don’t want my son to be locked up in an institution like you see on the tv and how these people are treated No mother should have those worries about her child the support should be there so he can have as much of a normal life like everyone else
Those same draconian rules still exist, irs just that the most vulnerable of them died roughly a decade ago. Not punctuating that sentence as it works several ways.
@@michellebyrom6551 Indeed. As I recall it got the UK Government into a lot of trouble with the UN. Well as much as 'trouble' one seems to get with the UN!!!
When I started working in 1969. It was a well known fact that people who did not want to work, didn't, and got benefits. Nothing has changed, except that there must be 2nd and 3rd generations who haven't lifted a finger to do any work.
@@johnkitching2248 It's not bllx, I spent three years working in a Jobcentre - what an eye-opener! I thought I'd be helping people to find work - which was some of it, but way too much time was spent fighting to get them to go to job interviews or explaining to employers why they hadn't turned up or had taken their baby with them telling the employer "I've told them at the Jobcentre I can't work 'cos I've got a baby to look after" when it was a condition of claiming benefit that people were available for work and had arrangements for any children. Many employers would not place a vacancy with the Jobcentre because of they were sick of the work shy who only turned up for interview because they had to.
I've applied for lots of jobs for two years and don't even get a reply. A handful of replies only to say sorry not this time. I'm 62 years old and work history since leaving school for one plc company for 30 years. My health is not so good now, demoralised by job rejections, I don't claim benefits, what should I do?? 😢
Maybe you should start claiming now. You must be entitled. It's hard to gain access to employment at an older age. Of course they would be better off employing you more than someone else, because you want to work.
@@sandrafinbar I feel reluctant to claim because I live in hope of getting employment, however I've now reached a point where I am literally going broke financial as well as mentally, I find it's very stressful to start claiming, loss of dignity. Thanks for your advice 👍
Tories always require a scapegoat from the underclass to be made an example of to the middle class how not to live. It's in their DNA and it will never change.
Daniel is wrong when he says that when he was young there was more unemployment, I'm the same age and i remember that you could leave one job and the next day start another. There was ample job opportunities today is very difficult for job seekers.
You've forgotten the mass redundancies in the late 70s into the mid 80s. If you cast your mind back, you'll recall, how the BBC & ITV (pre BS days), would report company closures and thousands being laid off. The true numbers were never revealed, but as an indicator, for every 30,000 made redundant the DWP would purchase another mainframe computer, the number purchased appeared to indicate the figure was around 3M.
A big big shake up is required.......or many required...and i do not like my taxes propping up other workers claiming the universal credit . I'm surprised this huge drain is not mentioned.
Workers on universal credit need that benefit because they don't get paid enough to reach the standard living allowance, despite working full time. If blue collar wages actually allowed for a family to pay all their basic bills a month, and remain fed and clothed, there wouldn't be so many people claiming the benefit.
Yes i know and have sympathy. Years ago the politicians should have concentrated in bringing down the cost of living which is very rare for them to include in manifestos. It creates a lot of money to run this schemes as well. Benefits have to come down as the public sector pension is another timebomb approaching@@stephaniefarrant
The main problem with benefit is, if you start working full time, you get very little more than when you get on benefit. so people on benefit thinks that what i should work 5-6 days a week for little extra.
Surely that tells you benefits should be reduced, maybe on a sliding scale so the longer and longer you are on it the less you should get, obviously unless you are genuinely disabled, also all the housing benefits the government pays out keeps rents high, the taxpayer bill for that has got completely out of control, but it helps the governments rich landlord mates so they don’t care
There are many low-paid workers on benefits, and many of them get help with their rents and other aid. Take away their benefits and they'll be even more people losing their houses and using food banks. And there will be more businesses going bust with even more job losses, because those benefits are really employer subsidies.
Yes well said, that is the reality here and more and more elsewhere. And BTW British slaves are so lazy, look at immigrants, they work much harder and better. You should be glad to have good worker slaves here.
I was thrown off sickness benefit when on hospital dialysis waiting a kidney transplant ... it was Iain Duncan Smith believe it or not who instructed his minions sort things out for me ... I eventually had a sucessful kidney transplant and am doing well!
It's becoming moraly obscene we still have a royal family living in castles and stately homes. Buckingham Palace, Sandringham, Windsor Castle, Balmoral Estate etc etc maybe they could take some illegals in as they have plenty of room
That ginger guy is in cloud cuckoo land, saying people who want to bring up their kids at home shouldn’t have to work, WTF, this is half the problem people think they can have kid after kid and it gives them a right to be supported by the tax payer, I always say if you can’t afford them don’t have them, although I agree their are caveats to that for example if a woman has had to leave an abusive relationship, but in general you should work to support your kids not really on the taxpayer, it has become a lifestyle choice for a lot of families a sit is so easy
Instead of hitting the benefits of this country I think its about time these politicians should be looked into i there currupt dealings into all the money they' have pocketed ie contracts for family and friends that's what you should be talking about.
Sounds like Tony Blair..., You don't need to work we will import better qualified to do work you don't want to and we will pay you.... Sadly governments don't have money they only have taxes!
Another example of the British people being punished because of mass illegal migration and as for the guy saying mums who want to stay at home with their kids shouldn't be forced into work is nonsense what sort of president does that set 😂😂not enough workers for jobs he says,, there's hotels full of them
Love Paul idea...." job guarantee".....even if lazy, useless, or simply refusing to do any work....can't be sacked.... It's already in place. .it's called JSA.
8 million people are in part time work, they can't get full time work and stop receiving benefits, millions in work are struggling with rent and cost of living crisis, what a buffoon
Its wrong. Its not easy getting it and many who deserve to get it don't. Does this silly man say there's loads of work when jobs are being lost. If you deny it, like look at Wilkos and othet companies closing. I think hes referring to last year.
I’ve been working all my life, brought up my kids and continued to work. I’m now 63, I wanted to retire at 60 but the government paid to that. I’m very unwell with numerous ailments, kidney disease, arthritis, amongst other issue, I had to take out my work pension at 60 so I could afford to reduce my hours and still continue to work, I’d love to give up my job and give it to someone else that has a family, yet we pay people to stay home on the dole and pay them instead while us older ones still have to work to pay for their needs. If people are genuinely sick then these people should be taken care of, we shouldn’t be taking care of illegal immigrants and those who are lazy. This country is ass backwards imo.
"Clamp down" just means they will cut off support for people who genuinely need it and keep it there for the noisy krank minority of nuisance-claimants that don't.
@@TheMishka11 they want to pay crap to make more profit. that is all these company's look for now. very rare nows is there one that looks after there staff.
Plenty of other things to tackle first. Many jobs are not worth doing as well. Fact is they destroyed the Nations finances to make lots of money for themselves and their mates. Now they are trying to claw that money back whilst also paying through the nose for anyone that decides they want to live here illegally! Not everyone on the sick is a blagger or skiving and yes it does annoy those of us that have worked all our lives are are finding it ever harder due to certain conditions that hit you as you get older... The problem is one that going to happen once you set up social security , but the politicians once again did not think it through...
True, where I last worked, we had a driver, who had a very badly deformed leg. It was a challenger for him to just walk. But every day, he came into work, to drive buses transporting disabled children and adults.
So pick on the most vulnerable to compensate for the thousands coming in illegally ..take money off the sick( genuinly sick) instead of kicking the illegal immigrants that are here living it up for free

Thing is like most services this country has, it was created with the best of intentions to help those in genuine need (because they do exist) and inturn was used and exploited by those who think they're too good to pay their own way. And, like always, its the good honest people who suffer. The clamp down should ensure those who are exploiting it are punished properly (both as punishment for doing so and as a deterrent for others considering doing so) whilet ensuring those in genuine need are still protected.
Yes unfortunately too many people take advantage of the easy benefits system, very much like the NHS people told time and time again to improve their lifestyle but they don’t, no one has to take responsibility for themselves anymore I am sure if it came out of their own pockets they would
@@spencer2721 Precisely. It's much easier to sit around using the old 'mental health' card and make it everyone else's problem, rather than just accept / admit they live a shitty life style and make all the wrong choices. Then they just breed and raise kids to become just like them, before you know it you have estates full of them. Sad times indeed but until society grows a pair we're gonna be stuck with it unfortunately
Most people are claiming benefits these days. Maybe cut off child benefit to those who are working over minimum wage. That would claw back a bit of money to spend on war.
I was born in the U.K. but was raised in USA from age of 6 until 3 years ago when I decided to come back to U.K. for a change. I served in the US army in multiple combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, I lost both legs below the knee, my left hand and horrible issues from trauma to my brain. I receive incapacity benefits and if they get stopped or lowered or any other reason scares me more than Iraq and Afghanistan ever did, due to the fact they could just stop helping and make me work. I’m not a welfare bum taking money and being lazy, I volunteer 3 days a week at the cats protection shop near me. Since I was 16 until now I worked and served in the US army for 18 years, but I still feel like a bum and going into the job center makes me feel so ashamed. I see so many of these fake disabled people claiming and I get put into that stereotype.
I wonder how they manage it, some 20 years ago, UI was made redundant, and went to sign on. The amount I got was piffling, it meant that my wife and I had to seriously 'draw our horns in' to survive.

Quelle surpise, a trade unionist trying to portray the economy as worse than it is, and defend those who choose not to work. Hardly a surprise though as his union fought tooth and nail to defend the practice of firefighters sleeping at work.
The redheaded guy is a balanced thinker with some interesting ideas. The Bible says that if a man refuses to work, he should not eat (2 Thessalonians 3:10). But it’s also true that many people cannot do paid work and they need support. It’s a knotty problem especially with how hard it is to define mental health issues as well.

The guy denies the quality of jobs and life nose diving while saying there is full employment there is not as wages do not support families like they should.
"We are not on the brink of recession" This statement is dependent upon the global economy remaining buoyant. Given the housing crash in China, the personal debt bubble in the US and elsewhere, increasing interest rates and a host of other issues. It seems more than possible for the whole system to domino and that includes us.
People will disability to have benefits cut. But people who knowingly can’t afford have children. They should be given everything!! This system is backwards! If you want children. It’s your responsibility to pay for them! It’s not a choice to be disabled!!

Yes, same ole diversion tactics. How soon people forget IDS and his clamp down on the villainous sick that caused suicides, and hardships to many. Even he admitted it had gone further than he meant it to. Same clamp down still in place today, and now they want to do even more. Shame on them.
Yep.
well the Government has to pay for the upkeep of the illegal immigrants
Are they clamping down on private jets for UN net zero?
Yup. Pick on the ill and vulnerable. What about that money scammed by tory mates during covid.
Claims are doubling.why ?. illegal immigration benefit claims are quadrupling..so what does the govt do..
Take entitlements from native people.
Exactly.
Immigrants can't claim benefits...they are given a smaller allowance.
WELL SAID SIR. And she did say to him .... I HAVE A STICK SO SHUT UP... WHAT THE.????
They shouldn't be getting jack shit
Illegal immigrants can't claim benefits in this country. Do you mean those who claimed asylum? Where are your stats?
It was inevitable this would happen. The government are beginning to look at cuts due to illegal immigrants who live off the state until the Home Office process claims which takes years. I wonder what the government will target next? Starts with illness and those who need help…this is a pattern. The conversation is demeaning to those who genuinely need help. Start with the UK rising population and the thousands that have invaded our shores.
Yes , 1 illegal gets more than a family of 4... Work that out if you can... Utterly disgusting in a democracy , but we do not live in a democracy!
This has been going on since Cameron was PM and Osborne was Chancellor. They called all the cutbacks austerity measures! Nothing to do with immigration.
We have a depression coming we have 150 percent of debit to GDP which means we are a banana republic these guests who think we have a robust economy go and look at the 2 year and 10 year yield inversion before they open their mouths we are going to be a 3 world country with in the next decade
Their looking for cuts they should start by talking a pay cut themselves they could save money by not funding the proxy war in Ukraine im stead they attack the most vulnerable people who caused inflation they did how to bring inflation down simple easy solution make institutions hold more capital reserve requirements above 0 this would contract the money supply job done

Maybe clamp down on illegal immigrants, immigrants in general, and stop paying EU money .
Kathleen, your suggestion is too practical, makes way too much sense for Gov't to implement.
Short memory. Immigrants contributed to this Country. UK invited the British West Indians to do the jobs that the British refused to do. They did not have the privilege of good housing, their salaries were poor, some banks would not give them a loan to have a mortgage. They had it tough, it was not easy and fortunately through hard work and determination some retired and are enjoying their retirement in the West Indies.

Well they have to find money from somewhere to support all the uninvited ‘guests’ to the country. How many millions a month is it now? And they need good quality accommodation….and don’t forget all the old complaints about the food which will have to be addressed.
Here Here Brenda.
For the last 15 or 20 years our standard of living has steadily gone down.
Our people have been and are in direct competition with the foreigners that have been allowed in.
A lot of companies are now foreign owned, and they employ their own before our people.
They can make more money this way especially if they are employed from an agency abroad shipped in and then live in accommodation they provide.
God knows where the younger generation will be working in the future, the government have facilitated our downfall with all these migrants.
Who will employ the natives?
when the migrants will work cheaper, they also get more help financially than the natives do able to get grants and loans from the EU and government to setup businesses.
It's not a level playing field for the natives.
Worst of all is the fact that politicians local and nationally never talk about any of this.
There is a conspiracy of silence against the public.
WE WERE NEVER ASKED
You are so right George, Its good to hear you say it. I've made this point frequently. Wages in some sectors stagnated for years because of cheap labour, often young men who lived in multi occupancy properties. Not that it was their fault but many British people couldn't live and raise a family on those wages. The company owners benefitted greatly though.
Immigration is the cause of this MESSSS
I have been self employed all my life ( no work no pay) but I can understand people these days NOT wanting to work or start a business, because how much you try to advance yourself the government and system knocks you down, and you can see other people and illegal immigrant getting along nicely on benefits without working, so there is no incentive to work hard
Likewise I concur with your comment, I've also been self employed all my working life often scratching a living through hard times. There are to many people sucking at the state tit and many who need to find a backbone, let alone adding more through immigration. I didnt get one day off through the pandemic or any financial help, had a heart attack at 50 and stent fitted and was back to work within a week as I had bills to pay. Like you say, only paid for what I produce, and holidays seem to be what other people do.
The two guests speaking on GBNews haven't got a clue about who takes the strain or makes the sacrifices.
Immigrants don’t get benefits as such, they get £45 per week to cover everything and are not allowed to work.
theres no incentive because of minimum wage.. 15-20 years ago there was time and a half double time trebble time etc now theres only minimum wage or no job and like everyone else that has half a brain its not worth my time working for minimum wage working myself till im sick in order just to live. these days you work overtime you get basicaly half your wage taken from you before you even get your paycheck thoes are the things that need changed im sick of working hard just to survive not able to save because gready companies wont pay decent wages most stick to minimum wage or 1 or 2 quid above normal which in these times just isnt enough to comfortably live
Well said.
Your paying for illagel immigration??? these people on the sick are British people mostly.
yet they can PAY illegal immigrants HOTEL, food, phone, lawyers & give them money no question asked!
Should stop the sick days in the civil service
Yes but what about being genuinely sick and getting the bare minimum while having bills to pay its endangering others.

Totally spot on. Worst of the lot, off or lol working from home at every chance they get.
Well they've got to pay for the migrant hotels somehow.
Exactly...instead of getting to the root cause, let's pick on the most vulnerable...
Yea, we have so many jobs while companies are sacking people, reducing people’s working hour etc. 😅
Wilkos have just made redundant 12,000 staff because the company went bust.
What do you mean you don't want to work for £9.50 an hour? But think of the wonderful life you'll have with all that money...
A guy that was an alky was told oh you need these benefits no problem. A person with no legs was told they were fit to work despite also being partially sighted... F'd up
I am a 50+ Yr old man, I served in the British Army for 9 years, I've worked 24yrs as a long distance truck driver, but list my licence through ill-health (stroke and heart attacks), this Ied to a mental breakdown which led to suicide ideation and mental health care, during that mental health care it was discovered I wasn't "normal" I was presenting differently to the more usual suicide ideators.
I was sent to a different mental health team to see if I had a different issue altogether.
They concluded I did have a condition called Autism.
I'm an autistic man, my entire life has been filled with situations, tasks, and roles I've been very uneasy with, talking with others being near other people the last goes on and on, but nit knowing I was autistic for 50 years meant I thought this was normal to feel and dislike these things, to want to exclude yourself only that I was better at doing so and saying "no I don't want too".
Turns out you want to do those things together, to mix, socialise, talk, etc I don't.
I have been agoraphobic my entire life and suffered the living nightmare all day long.
When it was understood by my thoracic surgeon that I was autistic he put the daily stress and fear I've lived with my entire life as the reason for the heart attacks, too much stress and anxiety.
Now I live alone, no family, no friends, indoors all day every day, NEVER venturing outdoors not even for milk or bread.
I make no phone calls to people write no emails to anyone, I have no-one to write too nor would want to uf there were anyone.
I don't want to deal with people, deadlines, rules or society, I need to be ME.
I must be alone, uncluttered, and unobstructed by the world outside.
Stopping my disability payments and limited capacity for work would place me in a situation of dire circumstance.
I will be unable, no matter what you do to me to go to work.
To you normal folks that is just hyperbole, but as an autistic person that is quite literal. I have realised since being diagnosed autistic by the NHS that my entire life was fake up to the point of diagnosis.
Nothing I had experienced in life was genuine or normal (for me), it was a series of anxiety driven scenarios each accumulating with the earlier scenarios to bring greater fear anxiety and worry to my mind and soul, this is why that now I'm agoraphobic because I want to distance myself from ALL potential future fears and anxieties, had I been able to limit them to when I was comfortable or to the point I could end them without fear of retribution then perhaps I could still function in society.
Forcing autistic people like myself to go against their inner fears and perform tasks work with others etc when the very condition is called autism (autos = _greek_ alone within oneself + ism = of a thing or condition) is to be isolated, forcing connections with the world is dangerous and cruel.
The danger comes as the fears and anxieties lead to suicides, the cruelty comes as those people suffer for the pyrsestrings of govt happy to give themselves pay rises while forcing such tortures.
If govt want to cut longterm sick and disability benefits, they should first promise to have no more MP pay increases or expenses increase for the next 5 years. Then, look to cut the benefits for the same period, and reintroduce them after 5 years when the MP's apply for their pay rises.
If there is no money to care for the most vulnerable in society, then there is no money for MP wage increases
@TheUnorthodoxy Hi, I just read your message and it breaks my heart to hear how you've suffered for years. My heart goes out to you. I totally understand what you've explained - I know someone in a very similar situation. I am 63 and haven't been able to work since 2015. If I was forced to go back to work, I know I'd be dead within a week. I don't have Autism, and I can't imagine what it is to have it. I hope and pray, the powers that be, don't force you off benefits - it is those of us who are genuinely ill who should not be forced by this vile Government. It seems that illegal migrants have more rights than those of us born here - and you even put your life on the line in the forces for our country. I wish Guy Fawkes could come back - and do a better job this time eh!! Take care, and I hope and pray you will be safe from the monsters running this country. X
There's no such thing as mental health. All you need is work and more work.
Where are you, in UK?
This is very relatable to me, 15 years ago I was kept in a chemically induced coma for four days as they fought to save my life. I had been restrained and handcuffed to the hospital bed to stop me 'escaping' when I just wanted to spend my final moments in peace.
I feel a constant sense of shame and guilt at being on benefits, of being a burden to society. I'm okay with being taken off them, but the aforementioned situation should also be stopped. If continuing isn't viable for an individual alone, then it only seems fair to either support them, or, let them have control over their own life.

They put MPs into a similar position in the past some kind of PR exercise or expriment and nothing came of it except that it reinforced the view that it was possible to live on £60 a week.

It should be up to a doctor whether your fit or not
Would that be any different? As a manager, I was frustrated, how staff would go off sick with a trivial matter, and then submit a sick note for a month! I suspect GPs signed them off, just to get rid of them.
No, it should not.
Yes it is they are medically trained to deside if you are fit for work not someone in a benefit office
Exactly. When you have a DWP medical (I use the term very loosely) you should have somebody who knows about your illness. A nurse, paramedic or physiotherapist should not be allowed to overrule the decision your GP or Specialist.

How about starting with the Civil Servants who are keen to take their sick day allocation on full pay and on top of their holidays 🤬
Yes, many NHS staff have the same attitude and in the NHS their sick pay allocations and holiday rights are VERY generous.
Let's put thing in to perspective regarding benefits for the sick. I currently receive less a year in sickness benefit than I did working 18 years ago! Every few years you have to go through the rigmarole of filling out a form and normally have to have a face to face DWP "medical" (I use that term very loosely) Despite my GP and Specialists saying I am not fit to work, (I've got 2 heart conditions, kidney disease and suffer from depression) I got a physiotherapist declaring I was fit for work. I then had to fight for the pittance they give me by taking the DWP to a tribunal. All the waiting puts a huge strain on you mentally.
Yes, my wife was assessed by a 6 stone 14 year old physio trying to tell her she could work when she has more things than i can list, joke, appealled and won.

I am 63, and will be 64 in January. The NHS caused me to become very ill, and eventually it turned into M. E. In 2010. I became unemployed and took any job going, from cleaning to shop work and factory work. From the age of 13, I worked 21 hours, 7 days a week, doing a paper round, out in all weathers. From 14, I took on a 3 hourly Saturday job - on top of the paper round, until I was 16. I left school at 16 and started a full-time office job. From the age of 20, I worked 6 days a week doing shifts as a telephonist. Throughout the 1990's in my 30's, I did 2 to 3 jobs a week. From the age of 40, I worked 45 hours a week. When I became unemployed, I took on a voluntary office job (in 2012), but I was so ill with M. E. I was told to leave the voluntary job, and get myself well. So from 2015, I was too ill to seek employment, and was forced to apply for ESA Support Group benefit. Then they put the retirement age, up to 66. I cashed in 2 old work pensions, with the Government taking 25% for themselves, and I lived on the pension early payout until it ran out - I'd only worked at the 2 jobs for 4 years each job. So now I'm forced to live on £7,000 a year. I have no savings, and live in a council flat. I can only afford bills and food. I'm too ill to go out more than once a week. I'm stuck at home, and am alone. I'd give my eyes teeth to be able to work - for the money AND the company. But when I do go out (only to get food), I am very ill when I get home, after just 2 hours of being out. All I can do us go to bed. I don't have a life, it's an existence. If I was forced to go out to work, I'd be dead in a week. I have a body full of silicone, where the NHS botched up an operation, and it makes me very ill, I also now have diabetes, arthritis, asthma, hernia, M. E., silicone poisoning to my lymph nodes, deafness and other medical issues. My life is already over. If my benefits are stopped, I'd go and have a covid jab, as my best friend died after her jab last year. Then I can go on to the next life and rest in peace at last. Yet illegal yobbos come here and get everything for doing absolutely sod all. They'll all turn on us soon anyway, so either way I'm screwed.
I’m so sorry to hear of your plight. Of course you and others like you deserve better. A lot better, but will never get it under the present tyrannical government and system. All I can say is please do try and be positive none of it is your fault or doing. There are many in the same boat you’re not alone . And don’t take the jibby you may find it makes things even worse .
My other half works for local government. If they're ill, they get 6 months full pay and 6 months half pay.
If they come back for six months, they're then entitled to the same again.
There are two members of staff that have been off for over three years total between them with 'general work related stress', and they can't get rid of them as their absence is because of 'illness'. All paid for by the public. One of them has been on holiday in Spain 'de-stressing' for almost the entire time.
One rule for government, one for everyone else.
the problem we have is these big company's want cheap labour ie them in then dingys to take them.
The government can save money to pay the boat scroungers

You've forgotten the mass redundancies in the late 70s into the mid 80s. If you cast your mind back, you'll recall, how the BBC & ITV (pre BS days), would report company closures and thousands being laid off. The true numbers were never revealed, but as an indicator, for every 30,000 made redundant the DWP would purchase another mainframe computer, the number purchased appeared to indicate the figure was around 3M.

Claims are doubling because migrants have come here and yet its we brits that have to cut our cloth .

A big big shake up is required.......or many required...and i do not like my taxes propping up other workers claiming the universal credit . I'm surprised this huge drain is not mentioned.
Workers on universal credit need that benefit because they don't get paid enough to reach the standard living allowance, despite working full time. If blue collar wages actually allowed for a family to pay all their basic bills a month, and remain fed and clothed, there wouldn't be so many people claiming the benefit.
Yes i know and have sympathy. Years ago the politicians should have concentrated in bringing down the cost of living which is very rare for them to include in manifestos. It creates a lot of money to run this schemes as well. Benefits have to come down as the public sector pension is another timebomb approaching@@stephaniefarrant
The main problem with benefit is, if you start working full time, you get very little more than when you get on benefit. so people on benefit thinks that what i should work 5-6 days a week for little extra.
Surely that tells you benefits should be reduced, maybe on a sliding scale so the longer and longer you are on it the less you should get, obviously unless you are genuinely disabled, also all the housing benefits the government pays out keeps rents high, the taxpayer bill for that has got completely out of control, but it helps the governments rich landlord mates so they don’t care
@@spencer2721 you do realise that universal credit is £300 per month.
There are many low-paid workers on benefits, and many of them get help with their rents and other aid. Take away their benefits and they'll be even more people losing their houses and using food banks. And there will be more businesses going bust with even more job losses, because those benefits are really employer subsidies.
Yes well said, that is the reality here and more and more elsewhere.

If people are genuinely sick then these people should be taken care of, we shouldn’t be taking care of illegal immigrants and those who are lazy. This country is ass backwards imo.
"Clamp down" just means they will cut off support for people who genuinely need it and keep it there for the noisy krank minority of nuisance-claimants that don't.
My local Tesco is crying out for staff
pay more then
@@TheMishka11 they want to pay crap to make more profit.
that is all these company's look for now.
very rare nows is there one that looks after there staff.
@@dmcarpmanit’s capitalism after all
Let the fake migrants fill the posts.
The DWP is set to check bank accounts of claimants - seeing as the bent ones will work cash in hand anyway this has clearly not been thought out.
We are maybe short of labour in the country but the work doesn’t equal a fair rate of pay
About time they tackled the work shy lead swingers, too many saying they can’t work. Many genuine disabled people do work and want to work.
Brian botter your looking through your bottom not your eyes 😁
@@petersmith2522I’m guessing you do a bit of lead swinging, possibly can’t see out of your 3rd eye as you’re always sat on it.
Plenty of other things to tackle first. Many jobs are not worth doing as well. Fact is they destroyed the Nations finances to make lots of money for themselves and their mates. Now they are trying to claw that money back whilst also paying through the nose for anyone that decides they want to live here illegally! Not everyone on the sick is a blagger or skiving and yes it does annoy those of us that have worked all our lives are are finding it ever harder due to certain conditions that hit you as you get older... The problem is one that going to happen once you set up social security , but the politicians once again did not think it through...
True, where I last worked, we had a driver, who had a very badly deformed leg. It was a challenger for him to just walk. But every day, he came into work, to drive buses transporting disabled children and adults.
So pick on the most vulnerable to compensate for the thousands coming in illegally ..take money off the sick( genuinly sick) instead of kicking the illegal immigrants that are here living it up for free
Yeah benefits really goes along way
I’ve just had an operation on my arm which ended up with my wrist an fingers paralysis I’m in pain 24 7 I can’t even wipe my bum I’ve fingers missing on other hand plus’s arthritis I can earn hundreds a week more working I get 63 pound a week 16 pound I use on buses because I can’t drive to hospital I’m under a surgeon also a hand specialist and physiotherapist the unemployment agency has said I’m fit for work I’m 61 in the past I’ve had a stroke it’s a joke
Have you not tried to claim for the cost of travelling to hospital?
Thing is like most services this country has, it was created with the best of intentions to help those in genuine need (because they do exist) and inturn was used and exploited by those who think they're too good to pay their own way. And, like always, its the good honest people who suffer. The clamp down should ensure those who are exploiting it are punished properly (both as punishment for doing so and as a deterrent for others considering doing so) whilet ensuring those in genuine need are still protected.
Yes unfortunately too many people take advantage of the easy benefits system, very much like the NHS people told time and time again to improve their lifestyle but they don’t, no one has to take responsibility for themselves anymore I am sure if it came out of their own pockets they would
@@spencer2721 Precisely. It's much easier to sit around using the old 'mental health' card and make it everyone else's problem, rather than just accept / admit they live a shitty life style and make all the wrong choices. Then they just breed and raise kids to become just like them, before you know it you have estates full of them. Sad times indeed but until society grows a pair we're gonna be stuck with it unfortunately
Most people are claiming benefits these days. Maybe cut off child benefit to those who are working over minimum wage. That would claw back a bit of money to spend on war.
This is such a BS. The most profit do the billionaire, gas companies, or energy companies do. They exploit the system in high scale.
@@clearday9525very true some households receive child benefit are more than comfortable
What a rude and overbearing man Moylan is . Shouting instead of having a calm and proper debate . Feel sorry for Paul having to listen to the man !!!!
I was born in the U.K. but was raised in USA from age of 6 until 3 years ago when I decided to come back to U.K. for a change. I served in the US army in multiple combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, I lost both legs below the knee, my left hand and horrible issues from trauma to my brain. I receive incapacity benefits and if they get stopped or lowered or any other reason scares me more than Iraq and Afghanistan ever did, due to the fact they could just stop helping and make me work. I’m not a welfare bum taking money and being lazy, I volunteer 3 days a week at the cats protection shop near me. Since I was 16 until now I worked and served in the US army for 18 years, but I still feel like a bum and going into the job center makes me feel so ashamed. I see so many of these fake disabled people claiming and I get put into that stereotype.
It's about time too,.. however, it does seem to be that the genuine cases are the ones getting hit rather than the cheats.
Some of them milk it thats for sure but in some cases they are better off on benefits than working thats got to be wrong.
I wonder how they manage it, some 20 years ago, UI was made redundant, and went to sign on. The amount I got was piffling, it meant that my wife and I had to seriously 'draw our horns in' to survive. Fortunately I managed to get a job, driving, it was only around £400/month, but at least I was in work.
Wilkos as just gone bust,construction businesses are failing etc due to cost of everything , what about training people up for free as many cant afford the cost of training and going to college which we go into debt for like uni students
My god, i am a pharmacist and this country is going down like no other country.. it is terrible to remove such rights!!!
The best way to save money is to give the Tories the long overdue kicking that they deserve at the next general election.
Only young people or those with short memories think that Labour are going to make any difference.
@@random6809 Anyone, even Starmer's Labour would be better than a corrupt Conservative government.
Labour will be even worse.
Zero hour contracts.??
Keep kicking the poorest and most vulnerable, nice one society!
Any civilised society is judged on how it supports those in need, the Political Parties need to be judged on how well they implement this support.
Be honest, do you care? No political party cares for us. Are you still so asleep not to see, that they are fighting a war against us. They are murdered and criminals all law is only there to protect them and their monies. Sorry you are so blinded.
are they going to have a look into Dorries claiming 80k for doing nothing?
Quelle surpise, a trade unionist trying to portray the economy as worse than it is, and defend those who choose not to work. Hardly a surprise though as his union fought tooth and nail to defend the practice of firefighters sleeping at work.
What else did you read in the Daily Fail?
Never read it in my life, but I do know quite a few firefighters
What are the firemen supposed to do when there is no fire...jump up and down..?
They need to focus on rising crime statistics in London.
The redheaded guy is a balanced thinker with some interesting ideas. The Bible says that if a man refuses to work, he should not eat (2 Thessalonians 3:10). But it’s also true that many people cannot do paid work and they need support. It’s a knotty problem especially with how hard it is to define mental health issues as well.
This is not good. Period
Ive worked for 33 years I lost my mother in October 2020 I’ve never asked for help I’ve just been diagnosed with serve depression which means I’ve struggled with Even going in to work or even leaving my home I’ve just got counselling after almost 3 years I asked for pip for help just until I can get the help I need and now I’ve had to go to a tribe union because they refused how is that right?
The guy denies the quality of jobs and life nose diving while saying there is full employment there is not as wages do not support families like they should.
100% agree, the wages in THOSE JOBS are so low you cant live on them... taking aside the slavish conditions they impose.
This world is making people sick
"We are not on the brink of recession"
This statement is dependent upon the global economy remaining buoyant. Given the housing crash in China, the personal debt bubble in the US and elsewhere, increasing interest rates and a host of other issues. It seems more than possible for the whole system to domino and that includes us.
We are the economy is DYING

I was quoting someone in the video and disagreeing with his claim.
People will disability to have benefits cut.
But people who knowingly can’t afford have children.
They should be given everything!!
This system is backwards!
If you want children. It’s your responsibility to pay for them!
It’s not a choice to be disabled!!
Receipts down, costs significantly up. A recession is inevitable.
