People in the UK without a legal right to be here are not entitled to claim any benefits. https://www.barcouncil.org.uk/resource/cab-rank-rule-statement-of-the-four-bars.html#:~:text=The%20cab%20rank%20rule%20is,are%20available%20and%20appropriately%20remunerated. https://fullfact.org/online/keir-starmer-court-illegal-immigrants/ https://fullfact.org/immigration/illegal-immigrant-benefits-access/
