Comment on Hunt warns of benefit cuts for people who won’t ‘actively look for work’
Aux@lemmy.world 11 months agoA lot of EU migrants have easy access to benefits. And people from Eastern Europe know how to live frugally (source: I’m one of them). Living on benefits in the UK is easy, benefits are bigger than average salaries in many Eastern European countries, housing is also covered, so you’re getting shit loads of money doing absolutely nothing. I know a person from my country, who migrated to the UK, got furloughed during the pandemic, then spent some time on UC while constantly travelling across Europe for fun, now she bought a flat in her home country and moved back. Buying a flat while living on benefits, isn’t that a dream?
The benefits system in the UK is ridiculous. It doesn’t help those in need, but allows a lot of people to defraud the system and milk it for cash.

Truly amazing. You’re doubling down.
Tell me ‘fellow migrant’, what length of time must you have been living in the UK, on what terms of immigration, and what stipulations must be fulfilled before a claim can be made (that will be processed and NOT automatically declined) by the Department for Work and Pensions.
If someone was furloughed, then they weren’t on UC. Also, I had to travel back to my home country during the pandemic because my mother died from covid and I’m an only child. I had been claiming UC at the time and my benefits were stopped while I was there because I left the country for more than 30 days.
The more you carry on with this lie, the more evident it is that you have zero idea what you’re talking about.

The only one lying here is you, mate. You didn’t even read my comment properly, there’s nothing to discuss here.

A stupendous attempt to save face.
I am completely open to debate your claims factually. However, it looks like the facts don’t support your little narrative. So it’s probably a good idea for you to throw in the towel now.

You’re deluded.
