Muslim Refugees In UK Lose Privileges To Welfare According to recent reports, the European Union has started offering Britain an emergency brake rule that could help curb immigration from other EU states. The measure is part of a reform package that is being presented on EU membership, sources claim. The proposal would give any state that feels its welfare system is under excessive strain a right to deny benefits to new workers arriving from other EU countries for up to four years. Many EU leaders are wary of the proposal, claiming that it risks conflict with the citizens treat rights. Prime Minister David Cameron is set to discuss the proposal in Brussels with European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker. Junckers institution would ultimately be responsible for initiating such legislation. If the two leaders agree, the broader package of EU reforms could be approved by Cameron in an upcoming meeting with European Council President Donald Tusk. The majority of the other proposals in the package have already been agreed upon. Tusk is expected to circulate written proposals to the remaining 27 EU governments at the beginning of this week. The issue is aimed to be resolved at the next EU leaders meeting on February 18.
