REUBEN - its what brown wants you to think

Couldn't manage the economy of coconuts of a desert island
10 YEARS OF WASTE
Your interest in Brown's spending - some more figures - tip of the iceberg!!! These are only the ones I know about.
With some of the figures from DWP and Home office sites below could answer a tiny amount:-
£13.5 million to house 1,000 immigrants in 2006
£75 million for gov depts to monitor immigration
£3 billion lost in benefit errors
£100 million on drug addict benefits
£300 million lost to benefit cheats
£1.5 billion on legal aid to immigrants
£30 million detention costs
£38 million on work permits to immigrants
Immigration costs council tax payers £200 million a year
Tens of million a year to teach English
Asylum seekers financially supported end of Dec '07 = 34,150
11,000 asylum seekers in receipt of benefits Dec 07 = 11,400
£80 million a year on translation cost to immigrants
£63 million to treat asylum seekers with HIV in 2004
46,890 asylym seekers asked for financial support in 2006/07
£5 billion to treat immigrants with HIV in 2002
£8.8 billion a year on open door policy to immigrants
This is the surface spending - try looking at gov websites for more.
