if someone is claiming asylum to the UK they aren't allowed to claim benefits (in the traditional sense). they do get an allowance of around £5 per day. they are also have to live wherever they are told and can be moved with little warning to anywhere in the country.

Republic of Ireland supposedly has better unemployment benefits.
So of friend is right why do all Ni scroungers not move to ROI? ;)

Ms J,
I have experience of a person claiming benefits in both jurisdictions! The person was an immigrant claiming asylum. I have my doubts as to the validity of his claim tough.
I actually was not making a difference between NI and England - i thought the benefits system would be the same - in that, i stand to be corrected.
Getting ready for the weekend, tonight Wimbledon and Peroni - TdF tomorrow - with Harp, footie on Sunday with coffee!
