After the current report, the strain on benefit services, is the UK right to adopt this stance?

Of course illegals should be denied basic health care and benefits. They have never paid a penny into the system where as people who have been paying taxes for years having to wait months and months for operations. Do you really think that Labour will really stop their benefits though? Its just the usual hot air.

Yes, how many UK citizens have to wait months even longer on the NHS to get treatment, we pay National Insurance to cover this, but still get a poor service, so why should immigrants get the use of an already overstretched service, who is stopping them from going back to their own country for treatment, would we receive free treatment in their countries????

By virtue of the fact that a person is in the country illegally, they have no entitlement to any rights. I would not deny emergency healthcare to save the life but then they would be deported when stable and well enough to travel. Routine healthcare is not a right for someone in the country illegally...

Yes, totally. If they were not to get health care and benefits they would not come to this country. We have been far to soft for to long. It's about time this country looked after it's own. this is not racism, there is a lot of poverty in this country and we should deal with that not spend millions on those who have no right to be here.

Yes. You try to get free medical help in any country if you are an illegal immigrant!
If we did not stop this, every sick person in the world (and especially Americans) would come here for free medical care.
If we were not sheep, we would not be shorn!
All illegal immigrants should be thrown out of the country as soon as they are detected.
The HR director or Managing Director of any organisation employing illegals should be fined or outlawed and / or sent to darkest Africa.

Yes. the UK (and America as well) have enough trouble with benefits to actual citizens, to worry about some who are there (here) illegally.

Absolutley right.... the people this country should look after is it's own people .... not illegals....
Our schools are over crowded , the NHS is under funded.... etc
It's time that we start to look after Number 1.....
Personally I would kick them all out.... but this is a good start....and has my backing....

Yes he is right, obviously if it was a life threarning emergency no one would deny them treatment but then they should be shiped out to where they came from

Th increase in many of our most worrying social problems arguably relate to the influx of foreign criminals and wastrels as against genuine people trying to better themselves. Drugs, prostitution etc etc. In my view positive action is long overdue.

YES! If they didn't pay for the services, why should they get the benefit. I wish the US would work that way!
