       Migrants who have entered Britain since 2021 will cost taxpayers a whopping ￡35billion in just seven years, a new report has claimed.

       The enormous sum sheds more light on Britain’s migrant crisis and further undermines claims that the millions coming into the UK are helping the economy.

       And Centre for Migration Control warns the already eyewatering figure is an “overly conservative” forecast that could prove much lower than the real cost.

       The sum is based on the fact that migrants and their dependents who enter Britain are eligible to claim welfare after five years of living in the country. Many earn substantially less than the average UK salary, making claims more likely.

       In 2020, the Home Office estimated that new liberalised visa rules for migrants would mean just 5,000 to 20,000 dependents come into Britain by 2025.

       However, this proved a woefully inaccurate forecast, with over 533,000 arriving between 2021 and the 2024 election.

       According to migrant cost data from the Office for Budget Responsibility, the CMC calculated that the cost to the taxpayer from these dependents will come to ￡34.7billion by 2028.

       ￡26.63billion of this enormous amount is from child dependents, while the remainder is from adult dependents - over half of whom are not in work.

       The 533,000 migrants will be entitled to free healthcare, education and other costly infrastructure such as transport and housing, which British taxpayers must then stump up for.

       A Home Office spokesman did not deny the calculations, insisting they were a result of the previous Conservative government.

       Robert Bates, the CMC’s research director, furiously blasted Boris Johnson’s legacy on migration and its’ “disastrous impact”.

       He told GB News: “Not only has this wave of migrants inflicted a vast cultural change upon every corner of the British Isles, it also represents a huge drain on the taxpayer.

       “The Conservative Party flooded the country with vast numbers of students, workers, and illegal migrants in recent years, and even worse enabled them to bring their families and children, burdening the native population with the consequences.

       “It will take taxpayers years to recover from the financial cost of this decision, and Britain may never recover from the cultural implications.

       “This figure is overly conservative, and the situation could actually be a lot worse. After five years these individuals become eligible to claim benefits and inflict a further drain on the public coffers.

       "We need to stop this by suspending all applications for settled status immediately.”

       In September, the OBR released a new report showing conclusively that low-wage migrants are a net cost to British taxpayers.

       However, even this failed to take into account the dependents of migrants.

       Earlier this week, it was revealed that more than 50 relatives of asylum seekers alone are joining them in Britain every single day.
