Immigrants will have to wait 10 years to claim council housing in massive benefits clampdown

This is first common sense, realistic approach to controlling rampant immigration into Britain. It should be a model for all Western countries.

I'm sure it won't be long before the poor put upon muslim welfare leeches are rioting in the streets, claimoing "discrimination".

Phil Woolas: 'Immigrants have to earn their right to live here'
Immigrants will have wait up to 10 years for the right to claim UK benefits and council housing in the toughest crackdown seen for decades, it emerged last night.

All legal migrants will have to serve a five year 'probationary citzienship' before being considered for a passport, immigration minister Phil Woolas said.
Those who work hard, are law-abiding and do voluntary work will be eligible for benefits one or two years afterwards.
But others will have to wait another five years before they can claim any benefits at all, in order to deter migrants who see Britain as a soft touch for benefit claimants.

Mr Woolas said: 'Entitlement to benefits should be for citizens of our country, not other people. If you are a citizen you have earned the right to benefits. People must show they are here to work.'
The measures which will help to safeguard jobs for British workers during the recession, will be unveiled in a new Borders, Immigration and Citizenship bill to be published in January.

It follows the news that Afghan mother-of-seven Toorpakai Saeidi was living in a £1.2 million mansion in West London and claiminig £175,000 per year in benefits at the taxpayer's expense.
