More than a third of UK births now involve at least one foreign-born parent; in parts of London, 80% of births are to foreign-born mothers

I don't know how immigrant families can afford to have 3-4 kids and live in London.

Toronto is the same, 50% of the population of Toronto are foreign born right now and they all have 3-4 kids - it's impossible to buy a house in TO for less than 1million so how the fuck are the all having kids? Who's paying for it?

Just like u/Node and u/Nombre have said. Nothing to do with evil foreigners or some other Jews are at fault conspiracy. It's all about our weak systems which rewards lazy people. Yesterday, I spoke to my partners best friend in Costa Rica. He's German, on Jobseekers allowance (not looking for work and living off our taxes!). He rents out his flat in Germany- which is paid for from our taxes-and living the good life over there. He's living his anti government, anti-socialist libertarian dream, while we are financing his lifestyle-nice house and property. Have I mentioned that his wife is from there and she (and her daughters) is eligible for German state assistance for the rest of her life?

After the rainy summer, the floodings, loss of rights, things going downhill fast, I'm feeling like an idiot. Did he made the better choice?

Sad but true - there seems to be endless taxpayer funded handouts at all levels of the government and if you're savvy enough and persistent enough you could do just as well without working. People have no shame anymore.

Yes, and I wonder if I (the tax payers) are the real fools with supporting a system that rewards lazy and work shy people. Our society have left our moral compass behind. How is it more feasible to not work, living off others people money versus working your ass off, get taxed to hell, paying rising rent. I wonder who are the real fools in this situation. My man's friend have shown us his new property without a shame and I wonder what the hell was I doing wrong. I only live comfortably, affording travels, good food, a nice place because I have to save or reject other things I want to have (MY dream kitchen and house makeover will take a while). It's also a plus that my man is having a good job. We both have to save and check our finances before of even thinking to buy a property abroad. His friend is in his late 50's or early 60's and have never really worked for the most part of his life. I wouldn't be too sad if somebody would report him.
