Closed petition remove benefits from immigrants

Closed on

No person from outside the uk should be entitled to any benefits until they have lived, worked and payed taxes in the uk for at least 5 years. This will reduce an ever increasing welfare bill as well as reducing the appeal for illegal immigrants who just want to use our benefits system.
