    The money this council has spent on their projects that are of no benefit to the EFDC tax payers have cost a lot that will need to be paid for by said tax payers.

    That deal with France will not succeed, France don’t want these people either. The whole thing is a scam. Just stop them coming. People do not pay rates for migrants to take advantage of.

    They're mostly bankrupt already overpaying useless lazy buggers to do as little as possible. It's ben like that for decades . Council = useless overpaid lazy bugger.

    These people give more and more Money away every month then tell us we've gotta pay for it. So who's paying for it? It seems to me the pool of tax payers is getting smaller and smaller while people getting free stuff, who haven't contributed, gets bigger and bigger. They are backing a dangerous animal into a corner and they need to be very very careful because people WILL have had enough very soon. Vote reform uk

    People can't pay their heating and food bills, how the hell do they expect us to pay greatly increased council tax. Still the illegal immigrants will be looked after won't they.

    Local councils are nothing but incinerators of tax money.

    Councils should restrict their funds to their locals. If the government is failing to deal with illegal immigrants then the government deal with it. Governments are attacking people at the grassroots where the are supporting corporations who do not have the citizens interest at heart or adhering to a global agenda that will bring nothing but hell and loss of freedoms to the citizens of individual countries, This is global. Same thing happening in my country as it is in the UK.

    Erm every council worker I know is very proud to be (not) working from home…. no work done, move the mouse every half hour, and this is what I heard yesterday…. proud as punch… whilst she was on the way to the gym…” I place the mouse on a ticking watch and the vibration makes it look like I’m working”,…. no idea how the hell at the end of the week after no work has been done… nothing is said. This is fife council

    Everybody in England should stop paying council tax immediately, believe me if we did they would soon start kicking these scroungers out.

    We need to stop wasting taxpayers money, by giving it to a corrupt French government. Instead we should be putting it into defense of our country and shipping out everyone that crosses the channel without papers and legal means. If lawyers and or judges object, they should all be arrested and charged with sedition, failure to protect the nation from invasion, aligning themselves with human traffickers and violating the Human Rights of those who live here legally!
