Indians in the UK barely need any of your social welfare benefits. The Indian diaspora is one of the most educated and high-tax-paying demographics.

Helen, Helen, Helen
Let me explain this to you in plain and exceedingly simple English.
Disabled kids are most likely to have been born with their disabilities or conditions (as I was). I know this might be shocking to you Helen, but we don't just stop being disabled at 18. Being born with a disability is usually a lifetime deal.
I tell you what, care to swap? You can have my cerebral palsy (and the benefits that you say come with it) and I'll take your fully functioning extremities and become an MP. Not a Tory one though, because I'm not a horrible bastard.
By the way, if you accept my offer, good luck trying to wipe your backside, put your own clothes on, wash any part of your body or doing any sort of cookery (since you won't be able to hold a knife properly) are, and one more thing, forget about rolling yourself over in bed at night, you'll have to get somebody to help you with that as well. But yeah, apart from that, a lifetime on benefits is really fucking easy isn't it?

Replying to @TiceRichard @British_Airways
We know you are not very bright Tice, you really do not need to keep reminding us!
As your Tory Rejects will explain to you there is no British Airways anymore - not as a credible entity in the UK anyway!
Since it was sold by your hero/mentor Maggie Thatcher in 1987 the UK government does not own a stake!
In 2011 British Airways merged with Spain's Iberia to form International Airlines Group (IAG), a multinational airline holding company.
BA ceased trading independently on the London Stock Exchange and became a subsidiary of IAG.
BA was sold for £900,000, so - to give you another example of a disastrous Tory deal - for the year 2025, BA operating profit was £2.23 billion with a strong operating margin of 15.2%,
