 EU migrant benefit plan 'could hit thousands of young Britons'

Thousands of young Britons could lose the right to claim some benefits for four years as part of government plans to tighten the rules for EU migrants.

Introducing a four-year residency test for migrants is a key part of the UK's negotiations of its EU membership.

But lawyers say applying such a test to migrants alone would breach EU laws, and the government is now considering extending the rule to all UK benefit applicants, from the age of 18.

Ministers would not discuss the plans.

BBC

They are not migrants, they are immigrants and most of them illegal at that! - Bl**dy left wing, hand wringing, blue rinsed, yellow bellied BBC!

However, I digress. This just adds fuel to the fire. Are the powers that be deliberately trying to cause trouble? Are they really so blind that they cannot see further than the end of their collective nose? I truly despair that this country hasn't got any politicians with the cojones to stand up, be counted and do the right thing.
