Looming reforms to Britain’s welfare policies could be a windfall for polygamous immigrants. While the UK doesn’t allow polygamous marriages to occur in their country, they do recognize such marriages if conducted in another country. This at a time when the UK’s migrant population is surging along with the rest of Europe.
A loophole identified in a paper from the House of Commons shows that wives in polygamous marriages could claim individual benefits while the husband and his first wife can claim their respective benefits. The changes mean some polygamous households nay receive more under the UK’s universal credit system than under the present benefit and tax system.
While the loophole in these reforms has been highlighted, so far nothing has been done by the House of Commons to address it. The gap in this incoming reform is inexcusable and demands action from Parliament.

Leland Van Zandt I’m sorry Leland, but this has been going on for years under other presidents as well. Obama made it worse with his open door immigration policies though.
No no no
I was thinking the same thing!
this is just wrong
There should be no entitlement! Send them back from whence they came!
Maybe in Britain but NOT IN THE U.S., our country DOES NOT RECOGNIZE POLYGAMOUS MARRIAGES. And if we throw Mormons in prison over it, THE SAME GOES FOR MUZZPIGS
That is why we are trying to fix the system and revoke all aid from immigrants and deport the leaches.
The ones who are a productive member of society can stay, but deport ALL of the leaches.
I’ll pass it on, what’s happening
to my country is what’s upsetting me. We are facing a very difficult time . Thanks
