Where beggars can be choosers 2
When Abdi Nur sought political asylum from Somalia in Britain, he was provided with a five-bedroomed house to accommodate himself, his wife, and seven children in the London borough of Brent, for which the tax-payers forked out £900 per week ($1,370).
But Nur considered Brent a “poor area”, and he didn’t think the (free) schooling his kids were getting was good enough. He would rather live among rich people. So he asked for a house in Kensington, one of the most expensive parts of London.
And he got it – a luxury home valued at £2,100,000 ($3,15o,000), near a good (free) school.
Now his rent is costing tax-payers £8,000 a month ($12,020).
Neither Abdi nor his wife Sayruq has a job. They live entirely on welfare support.

Britain is in dire economic difficulty.
However did that come about?
Now there’s a real head-scratcher!
