Gypsies On Benefits And Proud will show the unique stories of three immigrants after they travelled freely to the UK with their families once working restrictions were lifted in January. The programme, which is the first episode of the second "And Proud" series, shows how easy it is for immigrants to now travel to the UK and join the nation's generous benefit scheme. Ion Lazar, 36, who came to the UK with five other immigrants, says it is so simple to walk into Britain and get everything given to you. He says on the show: “I know it’s very, very easy to take benefits in England… She’s give me home free, she’s give me money free, she’s give me everything." He is now focusing on earning £40,000 to take home to Romania to build a house in his small village where he grew up.
