The EU dictatorship at it again. :mad:

They are parasites taking our tax payers money.

If this does not make you vote UKIP nothing will.

hah, daily fail.

It's not going to happen. So there's my excuse for not voting for the UKIP.

spoffle · 27 Sep 2014 at 13:09

Yeah, no.

Iain Duncan Smith's department has already paid £800,000 under these rules

Seems not.

In summary:

Daily Mail said:
An EU agreement means that citizens of one country who work in another are entitled to out-of-work benefits if they have paid national insurance for a certain period.

Daily Mail said:
In the UK the threshold is two years...

A spokesman for the Department for Work and Pensions said:
"This Government does not pay benefits to someone in another country when they would not have been eligible for them in the UK..."

So not outrageous at all then.

Glaucus · 27 Sep 2014 at 13:30

Yawn, if you want rid of EU, you need a head check.

Caged · 27 Sep 2014 at 13:34

Let's all get angry about something that we don't fully understand! Quick, to the bandwagon!

Nope, just your typical scummy daily fail bigotry and hate injected anti-immigrant and EU propaganda!! :mad:

Sadly though millions of Brits are gullible and lack even basic skepticism, the rise of UKIP is clear evidence of that

It's in the Grauniad too! Another reason to vote UKIP at the next general election if we give in on this imo.

I assume this rule, which to be honest sounds fair and correct only applies to the UK and all other EU members are exempt?

For the record it would take something as monumental as having my brain removed before I voted UKIP.

Should just do away with NI. Complete waste of time.

Poles have done a lot for this country, often totally unthanked. They have held up our curtains for centuries, given our dancers something to gyrate around and allowed Michael Palin to see the world - it's time we gave something back.

Battle of Britain for starters
