Over the course of the 12-years the Labour Party were in office, the British taxpayer potentially spent 84 billion pounds on exorbitantly doled out benefits, that often profited foreigners ahead of native born citizen, causing Britons to feel displaced. The benefits should be granted only when necessary and in an even, equitable and prudent manner. Certainly, help those that need it, such as the disabled and the elderly, but those who are able to work, should not be bankrolled and underwritten by the State.  

The British taxpayers cannot continue to foot such a hefty benefits bill, taking from working families to give to those that do not wish to work. This will also benefit the economy, as more people will be working and being productive. It is good that Prime Minister Cameron has begun addressing benefits waste and fraud, as it has the potential to completely wipe out and destroy the British economy. Britain has too much going for it to let that happen.

The British people need to remember their history and legacy, as one of the most prosperous empires that has ever existed and work to keep the tradition going.
