"We are cleaning up the mess of Boris Johnson. The Boriswave will bankrupt us. Reform will deal with Boriswave, the biggest betrayal of voters' trust in modern times. Far too many that have come don't work, have never worked and never will work. The ability to bring dependents of all kinds, and when you realise that most that come are very low skilled, and on very low wages, you start to get a very, very different picture."
"People here illegally rightly do not get anything from our benefits system. Foreign nationals usually have to wait five years to claim universal credit and we're looking at increasing this to 10 years. We inherited a broken welfare system and spiralling benefits bill. That's why we're taking action and reforming the system and have seen the proportion of universal credit payments to foreign nationals fall since last July."
Nigel Farage proposed banning welfare for non-UK citizens and abolishing indefinite leave to remain, requiring migrants to renew visas every five years and preventing permanent residency after five years. Farage blamed previous leadership for a growing benefits bill and described many migrants as low skilled, non-working, and bringing dependents. Sadiq Khan condemned the policy as unacceptable and warned it would threaten legally resident Londoners. A government spokesperson said illegal residents do not receive benefits, noted a five-year wait for universal credit and said officials are considering increasing that wait to ten years.
