This might be unpopular, but I'd argue that the state pension, which is about 45% of the "welfare" bill shouldn't be counted on this context.
It's covered by current taxation ONLY because it has, for 117 years, been unfunded.
Current recipients have contributed to previous generations' pensions 𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 that future generations (who we raised) would reciprocate.

This is about good vs evil
and unfortunately the left are making excuses and facilitating that evil.
The Government are importing monsters, whilst labelling the likes of me and you as the bad guys for daring to highlight it and daring to protest about it.
I don't think multiculturalism has failed
It just doesn't work when one of the cultures shows no interest in working with the others, and simply aims to supplant them all
Amnesty International has truly lost the plot. It is promoting a so-called “Arday's law” which would to impose state-mandated limits on press coverage of one person. No doubt thru an Orwellian ‘Ministry of Truth.’ Truly totalitarian.
Defund @AmnestyUK.
There is no parallel between George Floyd and Henry Nowak. The former was a felon. The latter was an innocent boy at university.
The establishment literally took the knee to Floyd. They watched as Nowak died.
Floyd and Nowak are polar opposites.
“What you have to understand,” a senior police officer told me, “is most chief constables would rather mess up a major murder inquiry than be accused of being racist.”
That is what we are up against, folks.
Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.
George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.
Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.
And we all know why.
During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.
They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.
And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.
This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.
This needs to stop.
11, 12, and 14 years old.
Raped for days by more than 20 Pakistani immigrants.
Tortured—one had her tongue nailed to the wall to keep her still while they raped her.
The police ridiculed, insulted, and ignored them.
The feminists turned the other way.
If it hadn't been for Elon Musk, who publicly shared the trial testimonies, sparking outrage from Reform UK and internal investigations, no one would have known anything.
You're not angry enough.

Another zinger from Cabinet Minister Pat McFadden to Mandelson:
‘Every meeting I have is “who can we tax in order to pay benefits to others”. They’re asking the wrong questions.’
Wow! Just wow!!
Hamas terrorists are firing mortars from tents in civilian clothing.
When Israel kills them, Hamas claims they were just innocent civilians.
It was all propaganda from the beginning.
Islam has a problem with Gays, Jews, Sikhs, Christians, Buddhist, Hindus, Women, Non-Muslims, Atheists, beer, wine, bacon, and dogs
But if I have a problem with Islam, I'm the bigot and Islamophobic? Can you see how ridiculous it is?
I sometimes feel that one of the few improvements
in life on the planet during my life has been the gradual
but steady growth in the importance of women in our society
Now these mediaevalists are trying to reverse that ?
Imagine watching this and being unable to decide if these vile, out of control thugs assaulted a police officer...
It doesn't make any sense.
Our two-tier justice system is utterly broken.
If the Manchester Airport thugs were two white lads, they would've both been immediately remanded in custody, found guilty, sentenced to a minimum of 5 years each, and be in jail 3 weeks after it happened.
We all know it.
Two-tier justice.
Dear world,
You gave Gaza billions of dollars over two decades, and instead of pursuing progress and prosperity, they decided to build the largest terror underground tunnel history has ever seen, to kidnap and murder Jews.
Next time you ask why Gaza's destroyed, remember that.
Both men said “I can’t breathe”, but only one man’s death was covered relentlessly by the media.
The only conclusion that can be drawn is that the legacy mainstream media is incredibly, hatefully racist against Whites.
Its all bollocks Andrew. There's always been changes in the Earth's climate, ever since the world has been turning. Nothing to do with 'mankind' or what we put on our fires, warm our houses with, or what fuels our engines! We can't stop it. Or even slow it down. It's the biggest scam any one person has come up with. Costing stupid country's like ours, billions. Chasing the impossible and cow-towing to gullible brain dead, stupid bastards like Millipede. Who, along with his brother, is making millions out of scaring and gaslighting the public, about something which is simply ridiculous.
Their plans to make money, is to out-source things such as the blades on those wind wands to places like China, paying them for these parts because we can't make them here. When they break or need replacing, guess what, we bury them in the ground! They use thousands of gallons of oil and grease to even keep rotating, and cost a fortune in diesel for the boats that deliver them. It's all complete nonsense!
