ALMOST £1million of UK taxpayers’ cash is paid yearly as child benefit to youngsters in Romania.
Under EU rules a European working in the UK can claim weekly benefit of £20.70 for the first child and £13.70 for all others — even if they left their kids behind.
"Taxpayers struggling to make ends meet for their own families should not be expected to put food on the table in Romania.People smuggler boasts he can get any migrant across the Channel to the UK for £7,000
Along with prescription drugs for family members in countries all over the world.
Why the picture of people in a boat? Is that where Romanians live? It is it a tactic to fuel the Brexit hate campaign? Yet more irresponsible reporting from The Sun
It's about time it changed!! Unless your born in the UK have british passport and national insurance number, you shouldn't be allowed to collect any benifits or have access to the NHS.
Absolute joke, you go home you loose the benefit ,role on October 31st
While uk kids suffer 😡😡😡😡
Sun tells loads of lies, Hillsborough will never be forgotten
and millions more to kids in Poland and other ex-USSR states now members of the EU- no wonder the EU are determined to stop us leaving!!!
and will this cease once we are no longer members of the EU?
Why ..
If this £1million is only for kids in Romania, how much are you and I paying to the rest of eu countries who are getting child benefit and how many millions do we pay for all the eu children already living in the UK? Add it all up and I bet it's 100's of millions!
why.....BorisJohnson
Not surprising.All government do is give away our tax money while our own people are homeless and hungry.

lets face it ,, this and very very similar issues with migrants ,, is what the brexit vote was all about in ma opinion
This due to all the scrounging. Immigrants
Why?
wow but what is going to happen to this situation after brexit deal or no deal
Why...!!
£1milion is nothing compare to the benefits paid to people that are fit to work but chose to stay home. Easterners are not the problem. Majority work and pay loads of taxes. Lets look at ourselves first before we find someone else to blame. How much was the brexit advertising?
My hard working son has six children, receives no benefits , the Romanians in the school are all free school dinners, uniform grant full benefits, even tried using his address as a single parent separated family, blood sucking leeches.
Brexit means Brexit
What mugs we are!
And people ask why folks voted leave?
If this is true, then there need to be a full investigation and there are some dept employees who need to be removed from post.
And my father worked all his life, paid tax all his life and then had to sell his property and use his life savings to receive care when arthritis meant he couldn't walk. Sickening
Shouldn't pay them a penny especially if they're not Britain citizenship!. Pay more to the hospitals and things we need!.
Disgusting!!!
Yet Brits who actually need benefits are stripped of them without warning?
Just when you though life in 2019 couldn't get anymore fucked up
And to think some of our pensioners are struggling to survive.
This story is true. It’s been happening for years. Parents in U.K. and kids back in country of origin. Happening for years and years.
It's a fucking joke UK does the same for polish and other immigrants who laugh all the way to the bank at softtouchbritain
Only in England.
That’s what’s wrong with this country
Haven’t you heard Britain have homes,money,healthcare for anyone who can cross here.soft touch Britain.
Why!!!!!!!
chasfxb It would be far more expensive to have the Romanian children in the UK as an alternative. EU citizens working/paying taxes in the UK are entitled to draw child benefit for their children living in another EU country, so long as they don't also claim child benefit over there.
Another compelling reason to leave the EU, being the reason for this stupidity.
This has been going on for years. The polish and Romanians are proud to say ‘We love England, they give us free money’ and they build their houses back in their country, they bring their children here to register them for CB so the can use the NHS 😡 then they go back home.
This needs to stop. It’s an absolute travesty this is allowed to happen. People who do not live in our country should never be allowed to take from our system.
😡😡😡
Then stop the payments
Bet this is going to plz the 50’s born ladies fighting for their pension rights..,....no end ‼️
LadBonnie Why?
LadBonnie Why? Are there not orphan children, suffering children and children in need in the UK? I applaud such kind, compassionate acts on the part of the UK, but there are so many social ills in the UK that need to be first addressed.
And for many years also, its old news... Good reminder tho.. Yet kids on UK streets go hungry .. Hope Brexit stop this.
LadBonnie Been doing this for years if you don't live in this country you should get zero from it !
When we have families living in poverty, vetrans who have no homes, food banks, Waspi women done out if their pensions, pensions age raised to 66 because of all these handouts, NHS on Its knees. We have fool's, running the country falling asleep on the job!
They pay a lot more to for kids that live in Pakistan and other Asian countries.
LadBonnie Time that was STOPPED current GOVERNMENT are becoming the PARTY OF WASTE, opposition tactics
& Meanwhile - Front Page - Can't Get a GP's Appointment for a Month ... !
This better stop when we leave. We pay it to Polish kids as well, and I bet that’s the tip of the iceberg.
& Have their OWN people , ' Living on Nothing ' - BBC News ... ! 🍽
Do gooders reaping what they've sown
STOP THIS IT SHOULD NEVER BE ALOUD TO HAPPEN AFTER ALL THE PROCESS BRITISH PEOPLE HAVE TO DO TO APPLY FOR THIS MONEY AND WE ARE BRITISH & BORN HERE NOT ACCEPTABLE 😡😡😡😡
Does anyone know if those claiming it live in the UK for more than 6 of the 12 months and pay taxes?
And more in other countries
Well that's got to stop on the 31st
They come here claim the benefits use it build new homes in Romania then go back . Yet there are people homeless in our country it’s pathetic .
Kids in Britain going to school without breakfast. MPs claiming for toilet brushes and domestos. Rights for shites, that’s Britain.
Yet my nan can't watch strictly come dancing for free on a Saturday night, after a life of being taxed.🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯😡
It’s not right its disgraceful this country has got to pot when are they going to put the British people first that ave worked all there life ere and put money in the pot
Lol I like it when you do cliché headlines
What’s the border force boat got to do with it?
system all wrong,you cant go over there and get benefits
That needs to stop immediately
UK is a joke
Daveofavfc There’s lots of people doing this British people too claiming benefits and living overseas.
Well, it's not really Romanians fault that British law got loopholes in it. If there are gaps anyone can use it. Simple.
Its not news, been going on for years, and the story is, great Britain get a grip.
Well there’s a surprise.
adeleleo Yes it's about looking after everyone but your own . This is wrong why on earth does it other country will do this .
Why 🤨🤨🤨🤨
Same here in Denmark. Elderly and children suffering. But we keep importing criminals and expenses from the middle ages (Africa and Middle East). While sending millions every month to Eastern Europe for no reason.
This has to stop 🛑
Its been going on for years not just Romanians either. EU law to do with the free movement of citizens.
My gran had the same thing decades ago when she worked for the tax offices with the Pakistanis claiming for absent kids abroad.
Shocked not
Time to Exit with Brexit
I’ve heard of this a few years ago
Makes you so annoyed
And that has to be daft. And that follows for any country. Presumably this will change after we leave the EU.
The sun get ready for elections now with the start of its racist tone it needs for the Tories.
Absolutely wrong, I moved house and forgot to inform them that I had moved as my child benefit was paid straight into bank , one day I was going through my bank statement and couldn’t see any payment so contacted them, 3 years hadn’t been paid but they only back dated 3 months🤬
Tip of the iceberg that’s only my one small country,... lets have the real figure. It will be staggering,.. meanwhile we have food banks at home .....
And how much does it pay out to already wealthy corporation heads and their very profitable businesses, and to overpaid, bonus and benefit bloated politicians? £1,000,000 isn’t even a drop in the bucket compared to those public derived benefits! 😡
UK Govt already has the power to send jobless EU citizens home after 3 months but they can't be bothered.
Mind blowing. Yet we fail to provide for the Elderly and the Homeless who are reliable on Charities - which aren’t government funded and help those people on donations. Unfuckingbelivable.
It’s been going on for years. The EU workers are quite open about it.
That be down the to Labor government
Maybe we should occupy Romania and add it to the British colonies 🤔
1 word (WHY)
Another reason why the country is fucked.
Worst corrupt paper in whole world,
What?Why?😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
We also give millions to African leaders for expensive holidays and houses
I worked with a Polish guy who got benefits for his 4 kids who still lived in Poland!!!! Our country is beyond pathetic!!!!!!
Disgusting
This was reported in a tv program well over 12 months ago following a Romanian bringing his new daughter over to register her before taking her back. He was purely in the country for benefits. A loophole that needs plugging
They are doing this for years. I work in recruitment and interview foreign candidates who openly tell me that they claim benefits for their kids that live abroad and never set foot in the UK.. So which clever sod allowed this to happen.?
Britain pays over that to buy your paper, britsdostupidshit
Average working wage is around £300 a month.Can you blame them if it is legal.?
Dazo42 Appalling - this is the kind of needless wastage we do year on year. This needs to end. It needs to end now. ParisCummings_
Then stop paying it and give it to children in uk.
More fool UK for doing so! Can’t blame the Romanians for taking free hand outs !!
Joke same here I would imagine in Ireland
And where’s the evidence on this
Stop it now
