Bigamy is illegal in Britain. But this law doesn’t apply if the marriages occurred outside of the country. So this should be no surprise to anyone:
UK to Increase Benefits for Additional Spouses in Polygamous Marriages from April 2026
From April 2026, the weekly rate for each additional spouse under Income Support will increase from £114.80 to £119.50, part of standard annual uprating confirmed in the government’s Social Security Benefits Up-rating Order 2025. This long-standing policy, dating back to the 1990s and clarified in 2004, recognizes polygamous marriages formed abroad for means-tested benefits, mainly affecting a small group of fewer than 100 low-income households who meet residency and income tests. Critics question using public funds for arrangements illegal under UK law, amid broader concerns over welfare spending and rising taxes, while supporters note it prevents hardship for valid dependents without promoting polygamy domestically.
That is very big of the Brits! Big of you and bigamy!
The Caliphate of Great Britain keeps on boldly marching toward the 6th Century.
The UK has already flushed itself down the toilet.

Good one. I can imagine Bob Hope delivering that 60 years ago to thunderous applause. In today’s dour ultra feminist culture, not so much.

(a Northern Ontario joke. You have to visit the place).
Har! 🙂
At least there was Temagami Dry Ginger Ale.
What is the penalty for bigamy?

@Pappy:
Then I figure Viagra would be #2 on the ‘most popular’ list.
What’s it called when a man has so many wives he folds under the pressure? Origami!
Ha!!!!
Taxpayer subsidized Jihad – it’s the latest thing in western suicidal empath circles.
Remember when the Mormon’s were heathens for having multiple wives?
I was surprised that Robert Blackmore didn’t end the persecution by declaring “he had heeded the call to Islam.”
Then he could have declared Bountiful BC off limits to kafirs.
It’s just a guess … but Britain won’t be supporting any polygamists from Southern UT … as those white folks wouldn’t be allowed into the country … legal or illegal.
That nagging feeling you get when you’ve been right for the last five years and know that truth be told the Great Replacement theory really hasn’t been “debunked”. Totalitarianism and Sharia vis-à-vis Islamism are totally compatible.
You say conspiracy theorist…I say truth delayer.
Read this morning where in Germany an Afghan had his sentence reduced because the judge claimed he showed restraint when he stopped after stabbing his victim mulitple times. I got nothin’.
That’s how you know Western civilization is F***ed!
Save yourself.

Big-a-them!!
Will the former empire’s self-flaggelation ever cease.
Question, if someone who lives in Britain goes back to Pakistan for a weekend wedding, does this apply? Does she or he get automatic admission to Britain along with these benefits? Should we nuke Pakistan or Britain, which would be more effective?
I believe its a tie.
Yes, more money for new arrivals, not natural-born citizens. Good policy.
If humanity is too dense to nuke Britain (and Somalia, Pakistan…) then can some Interstellar Power asteroid-fck them please.
The various welfarites get about £6000 in benefits each month, if you were to actual earn the equivalent, it works out to a wage of £120,000 a year.
Eventually, everyone who makes less than that will figure it out, and stop earning.
