weii it is a lot worse than that, there are benefits being claimed using this same method, I don't agree with frozen pensions but  blatant  benefit fraud is another matter, they could easily catch these people by checking passport records, for now they don;t

Exactly, I have lost count of the amount of Eastern Europeans that are claiming child allowance amongst other benefits but the real kicker is, they are renting out their counc il/housing association property and and pocketing the rent..

First off - is there a system in place for tracking UK citizens leaving and entering the county? I don't believe there is.....

I've been in Philippines 👍

If you do the crime, do the time.

My pension has been frozen for almost nine years. That is one reason why I still work.

Yes, life is a bitch and then we die.

It is how we die that is important.

You're on the "wrong team "

We get our C.O.L.A. increases every year ( Cost of Living Adjustment )
