It's official: Foreigners are coming to Britain and milking the benefits system dry.
Around 1.3 million foreigners are now claiming Universal Credit - this could amount to over £1bn-a-month.
The number of migrants on the benefit increased from 906,000 in June 2022 to 1.27 million in June this year.
Some 737,799 of the migrants are unemployed, while 511,000 are in some kind of work but still receiving benefits.

Most of the migrants receiving the benefits are EU nationals, comprising 770,379 of the claims. This represents a 19.7 per cent increase from 2022.
Non-EU nationals account for 492,502 of the Universal Credit claims, which is up 87.6 per cent.
Let's break down who these non-EU nationals are - now apparently we're not allowed to know exactly what countries they're all coming from, they wouldn't want it stoking racial tensions now, would they?
But 211,000 of them have indefinite leave to remain. So that's that. For some, a possible lifetime on benefits.
Just shy of 120,000 are refugees. We have around 90,000 people on an asylum waiting list at the moment so that figure's going to shoot up, isn't it?
Around 54,000 are on humanitarian visas, like Ukranians and Afghans...I would be amazed if it turned out to be loads of people from Hong Kong.
75,267 are on time-limited visas...so what are they even doing here?
Can you guess what's fuelled this?
GETTY | More small boat migrants are expected to arrive on Britain's shores if the Government closes two schemes for Afghans to apply for asylum, according to a Home Office policy paperA surge in asylum seekers being granted refugee status, and record net migration - which peaked at 906,000 in the year to June 2023.
In March this year, nearly one in six Universal Credit payments went to a household with at least foreign national on benefits.
Let's zoom out here and look at the bigger picture.
Matt Goodwin tweeted this: "You give £1bn for the French to not police the border. £6bn housing subsidies for foreign-born people. £7bn to resettle around 24,000 Afghans in a secret scheme we weren't allowed to know about. £12bn-a-year on Universal credit for foreigners. Billions on migrant hotels and accommodation. You spend about £140m on translation services."
The list goes on.
I'm just going to say it! Why on earth are any of these people here?
This is why your taxes are going up!
