More than £2billion is being claimed in benefits by foreigners every year, including thousands of illegal immigrants, figures reveal.

The Department for Work and Pensions announced a fraud investigation last night after it emerged 5,000 illegals claimed handouts worth £42million to which they are not entitled.

Ministers acted after the first-ever study of claimants’ nationality, which found 371,000 foreign nationals are on out-of-work benefits.

SOMALIS WHO DEMANDED £8,000 A MONTH HOME

Somali asylum seeker Saeed Khaliif was given a £2million home in one of the country’s most exclusive neighbourhoods at the taxpayer’s expense.

The 49-year-old was granted housing benefits of almost £8,000 a month to live in the six- bedroom property with his wife Sayida and children.

The unemployed couple demanded to be moved to West Hampstead, north-west London, after deciding their home in the Midlands was inadequate.

Personally, I think the British government is very kind and generous. Very generous people, I must say.

I wonder how much British people get from other EU countries... or indeed from any other countries where they live. (Not much from Thailand, that's for sure)

What difference does it make that she's a darkie foreigner? That's too much to spend on a doley, wherever they're from.

I object to all the natives who're not working, when they can speak the language, they've had free education, they've had all their lives to build up contacts to find a job. Get them working and moving up the ladder, and there'll be plenty of council slums to put the immigrants in.

Personally, I think the British government is very kind and generous. Very generous people, I must say.

With the taxpayers' money.

First they steal what they can for themselves, then let others into the trough.

Lastle, the taxpayers' money is used to benefit those same taxpayers.

Don't really care which bunch of thieving politicians is in power (or which country) they are all the same.

The Daily Telegraph has currently 2,421 comments on this article - the most I have ever seen on a DT article - and this in less than eight hours.

I haven't read them all, but all that I have seen have been of the 'bash the foreign scum' / 'bash the social services' variety.

There were plenty of native whores before the immigrants started to arrive.

If the money is there for the taking, who can blame anyone for taking it? I know I would if Thailand was offering something for nothing. Why it is there for the taking, however, is another matter....

I wouldn't blame anyone for taking it, just the British government (aided and abetted by the EU) for handing it out... and of course the Daily Mail for making us all envious.

Im moving to England.

Im moving to England.

You have my pity.

Im moving to England.

I'm very happy to be back in Cambridge. If there was more money in my bank accounts, I'd be even happier.

But it's damned cold at the moment.

(And the TV programmes are awful !!! )
