Jobseekers wait in a queue outside an employment centre in Madrid, Spain..

This article is about how the brittons are on benefits all over the Europe which is very interesting and the amount of numbers is incredible. 


  •  At least 30,000 British nationals are claiming unemployment benefit in countries around the EU, research by the Guardian has found, based on responses from 23 of the 27 other EU countries.
  • The research shows more than four times as many Britons obtain unemployment benefits in Germany as Germans do in the UK, while the number of jobless Britons receiving benefits in Ireland exceeds their Irish counterparts in the UK by a rate of five to one.
I find this interesting and I didn't expect the numbers to be as high as what they already are. I find this article quite interesting as the numbers were very hard to believe and this is something that I didnt think about.
