The admission, prompted by pressure from Independent MP Rupert Lowe and his 'Restore Britain' movement, underscores the immense financial strain of mass immigration on the UK economy.


Based on the DWP’s own figures, the average Universal Credit payment ranges from £960 to £1,000 per month. Among the claimants, 180,749 are refugees, and an additional 75,267 are foreign nationals who entered the UK on work or family visas but are now relying on benefits.


Mass immigration is categorically crippling the UK economy, with these staggering costs fueling calls for urgent reform of immigration and welfare policies.
