No, it's a myth.

my daughter gets pushed down the list every time an immigrant sighns on. they automaticly go to the top of the housing list. no matter how long youve been on it. in fact in areas like bradford, if your white and British born you might as well come off of it. because you are never going to get housed. my daughter has been right at the top twice now. shes been on the list for five and a half years.

Not sure it's even Daily Mail propaganda, or just something people tell each other in pubs so often it becomes accepted as truth.
No, it's not true, other than child benefit (which is a pittance compared to tax) immigrants aren't entitled to this sort of thing for 2 years.

They don't get ALL of them but if they are homeless they are given priority. I know people living in Hillingdon the borough in which immigrants flood into Heathrow and indigenous people cannot even get on social housing lists because of the shortage of available property and high demand by immigrants. It is therefore true that homeless immigrants are given priority. And they wonder why people resent immigrants when our infrastructure is over stretched.

I think that it is a sick state of affairs when even one immigrant is given a house when there are indigenous britains who have to wait, surely if there is a house to be had it should be given to a Briton first.

Browns stated vision is to build 3 MILLION houses of which 2 MILLION are for there immigration policys (figures from migrationwatch and accepted by "goverment") . With the coming tipping point for oil these houses will be unsustainable for gas,electric,water or food. How can this be other than criminal and insane.
