How many non-British persons live in the UK and how much is it costing the government? With the country struggling with with the current recession and government revenues slowing up, plus the growing number of non-British persons claiming a variety of benefits (NHS, housing etc..). What impact are they having on the economy and at what point will the limit be reached of social acceptance in such large numbers entering the UK? Asked by Martin F - Wed Mar 18 03:39:21 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. Well, the rule should be simple, no housing & no benefits for anyone who is not permanent resident of UK (including EU citizens, that means an EU citizen must pay TAX for 18 months at least to qualify for this). No Medical for anyone, who is not resident of UK (means at least spending 185 days out of one calendar year, and has paid TAX for that period). This will sort out everything, including those money/benefit mongers coming from EU countries for benefit fraud. Its Ironic that a Highly Skilled person entering UK & paying as high monthly TAX as a Polish is earning his monthly salary, yet unable to have any benefit even after three years of residency, While a Pola enters UK, pays TAX for 181 days & claims all benefits & housing & child… [cont.] Answered by Pauper Prince - Wed Mar 18 06:19:53 2009 How did the British cause nationalism to develop in India? Q. I know that the British caused nationalism to develop in India most likely by their indifference to and ill treatment of the poorer sections of the Indians. The British did things to the Indians that were very much considered as mistreatment. But what happened? Asked by Help ME!! - Wed Jun 10 11:17:46 2009 - - 2 Answers - 1 Comments A. This probably is what one should call framing questions expecting a favourable answer. Because the question reads as 'British Cause'? How they caused is simple, i will give by example. Say you are a Canadian and as you know British colonized half the world at that time, so one white guy in hat arrives at your port saying he will do business. Since your philosophy(Indian) considers guests as gods you allow them and be hospitable. Then they slowly start taking over your land and ask you to pay taxes and become your administrative officer, then they become tyrants and beat the hell out of u and take your wedding necklace to put some on the head of their old queen, and the rest in to British museum. So finally you become a slave for your… [cont.] Answered by Videsi - Fri Jun 12 07:07:20 2009 Why do british people react to criticism of BP with defensive anti-American rants?
Q. If you read the british press, it's loaded with hysteria over the alleged hysteria that is "sweeping across the US" regarding BP's oil spill. The tiniest criticism and the british react with such a defensive knee-jerk anti-Americanism, it's scary. In fact I was not anti-british because of the oil spill, but I am becoming anti-british because of their strange way of handling the slightest criticism. Asked by Rajabooty - Tue Jun 15 23:12:38 2010 - - 21 Answers - 0 Comments A. Well I just saw an American woman interviewed in the affected area and she was demanding that the Queen of England come out and apologise. How much grovelling do you need to make you feel better? You just have to make people apologise again and again, even if it's nothing to do with them. Americans never make any mistakes, do they? (I won't start on about Bhopal again.) Suffice to say, BP is a company - it's not a country. The British people have nothing to do with it, and neither does the queen. The British people are badly affected too - just like the Americans. First we were hit by your lousy banks, and now we are hit by this company taking shortcuts too. So why bash the Brits? We've been hit in the pockets by both American and British… [cont.] Answered by Susan - Thu Jun 17 06:21:12 2010 From Yahoo Answer Search: "british" Pages in category "United Kingdom"The following 11 pages are in this category, out of 11 total.
