Why would Britian and Spain allow mass...

Editor's note: ...migration into their respective countries especially Muslim migrants? Governments claim there is a real benefit to migration into respective countries including Britain, Spain and Japan but for the benefit of who exactly? Yes, there is employment adding to GDP, an increasing tax base but at what expense considering the following?

Extra Welfare for Britain's Polygamist Migrants

August 19, 2026 | By Martin Armstrong

You really cannot make this stuff up. Britain does not permit people domiciled in the UK to enter into polygamous marriages, yet buried inside the government's welfare tables is an allowance for an “additional spouse” in certain polygamous marriages legally contracted overseas. For 2026–27, that additional amount under the relevant Pension Credit rules rose from £119.50 to £125.25 per week. That works out to £6,513 annually for each qualifying additional spouse living in the household.

This is precisely the sort of contradiction that destroys confidence in government. Parliament tells British citizens that one legal standard applies inside Britain, but when government encounters a marriage legally created under the laws of another country, certain parts of the welfare system can recognize additional spouses for benefit calculations. The House of Commons Library has confirmed that polygamous marriages considered valid under UK private international law can, in limited circumstances, involve means-tested benefits covering more than one spouse.

Now, before everyone runs around claiming Britain is spending billions supporting harems, that is simply not true. The Department for Work and Pensions says the latest Housing Benefit data recorded fewer than ten households identified as polygamous marriages formed abroad. Universal Credit does not recognize a polygamous household as one multi-spouse benefit unit either; generally the earliest married couple forms the couple claim while additional adults must claim separately according to their circumstances. Fine. Then why maintain a category for an additional spouse in a polygamous marriage at all?

That is the political issue the bureaucrats never understand. The outrage is not primarily about whether there are eight households, eighty households, or eight thousand households receiving this particular allowance. It is the principle that government has created one set of cultural expectations for the domestic population while accommodating another legal arrangement when imported from abroad.

Britain has spent decades telling people that mass immigration would require integration into British society. Yet integration cannot mean that British society continuously modifies itself to accommodate every institution brought into the country. At some point a nation must decide whether immigrants integrate into the country or the country integrates around the immigrants.

This becomes particularly absurd when Britain is simultaneously debating enormous reductions in welfare spending. Reform UK has proposed cutting the welfare bill by £50 billion annually. Politicians are arguing over disability benefits, long-term unemployment, housing assistance and who should qualify for taxpayer support. Working people are being told that the existing system is financially unsustainable, yet government regulations still contain explicit calculations for additional spouses in qualifying overseas polygamous marriages.

The actual expenditure may be microscopic, but politically the symbolism could hardly be worse. This is how governments lose people. They insist that ordinary taxpayers accept increasingly complicated rules while refusing to recognize how those rules look outside Whitehall. A British worker does not sit down after a ten-hour shift and read the Department for Work and Pensions' technical explanation of legacy Pension Credit arrangements. He sees that polygamy cannot legally be contracted in Britain and then discovers an official government benefit table containing the words "additional amount for additional spouse" under "polygamous marriage."

Editor's note: Since a mass migrant arrival at the end of July, Ceuta has recorded 15 rapes in less than three weeks, including the assault of a 10-year-old girl, allegedly by three brothers, in an ongoing investigation. This is not an isolated incident but a pattern authorities have been unable to contain. Local women describe living in fear, with some fleeing the city entirely or refusing to walk alone. Roughly 1,800 unaccompanied minors have been identified and bracketed with ID bracelets, yet many are reportedly turned loose back onto the streets, since Spain has no mechanism to deport them to Morocco. Health services describe a system under real strain. Beaches have turned into informal encampments. And amid the chaos, one detainee was found to be carrying an active Interpol warrant tied to terrorism, a stark reminder that uncontrolled, unscreened arrivals create openings for far more than public disorder. Despite roughly 1,500 police and military personnel now deployed, the city's basic policing and safety functions have visibly buckled under the pressure.



Japan is being pried open like a can of sardines to allow increasing numbers of migrants into the country including Muslims:




The allegation is he dragged a Japanese school girl into some bushes and raped her:



There is a growing problem in Tokyo in the Kabukicho area with Africans particularly documented Nigerians running drugs in the area. There are increasing incidents of Africans attacking foreign tourists:
