In fact at the end of the program when he is told he has been filmed and Paul Connolly identifies himself as an undercover reporter, Scouse sprints away faster than Hussein Bolt.
The program is peppered with the usual low-life scumbags who claim benefits whilst enjoying regular incomes from shoplifting - some of whom admit that they do not want work but could work if they wanted - but it is when the accent switches to Housing Benefit where the program confirms my own direct experiences and endorses what I have -- controversially -- said on these forums.
Every single case of Housing Benefit Fraud highlighted was being perpetrated by FOREIGNERS - IMMIGRANTS.
Council/Social Housing in London is - without a doubt - one of the scarcest, hardest to find commodities there is, but here we have examples of immigrants on benefits who are lucky enough to have secured such accommodation, letting out 15 bunk beds to other immigrants at £60.00 per week each (That's an illicit tax-free income of almost £50,000 per year - ON TOP OF THE BENEFITS WHICH THE BASTARDS OBVIOUSLY SHOULD NOT BE CLAIMING) and others on benefits illegally letting out single rooms in their council housing.
This is only one of DOZENS of documentaries over the years made by different companies for different channels which expose the same facts; Housing Benefit fraud on the larger scale is almost exclusively being perpetrated by immigrants/foreign born nationals.
Far from being 'Tory Propaganda' as some on here childishly and ridiculously claim, these programs are factual, and as such, the results of these undercover investigations should be shocking and alarming to those viewers whose own direct experiences have not already educated them to the abuses being exposed, because they are the tip of a very large iceberg.
The program makers quote that 'Benefit fraudsters' cost the country more than 1 billion pounds per year, and because that figure stems from 'official' sources, we can comfortably DOUBLE it.

Yep that is true.There's another programme about bailiffs and every single one of these people renting rooms out to sometimes up to 30 plus immigrants is an immigrant themselves.Some of them charge £200 for a mattress in a hallway or to share a bedroom with 4 other people.
