370,000 Migrants claim benefits.
I can't work out whether I'm shocked or unsurprised by this number!
Does this amount of migrants claiming benefits raise cause for concern?

I should point out that my answer is strictly pertinent to the question raised and my opinion is applicable only to those that migrate to our shores with the sole intention of abusing our benefits system. It annoys me that Strasbourg demands we allow this to happen and there's nothing we can do about it.

Until we have a proper censor, (not just a voluntary one as we now have, where it it up to the individual whether or not they put their name down.) we will continue to dish out benefits to all and sundry.
Everyone should be made to register and go on a national data base and then issued with an ID card, which to prevent forgery could be cross referenced with the national data base.
When applying for benefits all the person's details could be cross checked to establish whether or not the applicant was a bona fide.citizen of the UK.

Actually, I'm the child of one of those blacks who supposedly came over to leach off the state, and all I can remember seeing my mum and dad doing was working hard all their lives and viewing benefits as a source of shame.
That's what I recall from the 70s - being on the dole was a source of shame, for black, Asian and white people.
Perhaps your viewpoint is different...I can only say what I saw, coming from a very racially mixed environment.

Perhaps Gromit has been a bit on the excessive side but he has a point.
Cameron did say he would sort it out and he has not. I strongly suspect this is all to do with being tied down by the whinging liberals. He needs to tell them to shut up or he will call an election. They will be the biggest loosers whatever the outcome.

DrFilth -
"is this the same mr grayling that was ordered to pay back all that money
i was shocked that an mp who claimed as much as he could till he got caught would be shocked over this
>>English Proverb ... The big thieves hang the little ones. <<"
I've just managed to find the article - you didn't give a link, and it doesn't bear out what you say. he was asked to repay £136, as I showed you before.
Where's that retraction?

how would anyone know the truth if they were secret
>> MPs' expenses: 17 MPs were re-elected after secret deals on expenses
More than a dozen MPs were re-elected this year without voters knowing they had struck secret deals over expenses breaches. <<
