Blitz on Families Raking in Benifits

lollywood —

ALMOST 200 families with 10 or more children each get £60,000 a year in hand-outs, new figures reveal.


These huge broods in workless households are costing taxpayers nearly £12million a year.


The figures, released by the Department for Work and Pensions, will fuel fears that some welfare scroungers are having large families simply to increase their state-funded incomes.


They revealed that a workless family with 10 children under the age of 18 could receive around £1,177-a-week in benefits by claiming Jobseeker’s Allowance, Child Tax Credits, Housing Benefit, Council Tax Benefit and Child Benefit. This adds up to £61,204 a year.


And last night ministers vowed to continue to crack down on the lavish expenditure by capping benefits for all households at a maximum of £500 a week
