And of course Greece will still get support the EU fearing they may leave.
In your humble opinion if by chance the UK does vote to leave do you think other countries may want to follow?
I believe that you can claim what ever you are entitled to in any of the EU states that you are in. The crux of the matter is that we give more than most to whoever asks for it therefore we have a lot of benefit tourists beating a path to our shores.

Bully for the Czech Republic. It is a disgrace therefore that the Czechs can come to the U.K. and claim an awful lot more in benefits after a very short period than anyone from outside their country can.

The Czech's were the main opponents to Camerons welfare plans, so what's good for the Goose isn't good for the Gander, and how do they get away with it...................ignore the rules like most of the other members
