The European Commission's decision to take the UK to court over migrants' access to benefits is a spectacular own goal

(PresseBox) (London, )
Open Europe has today responded to the European Commission's decision to take the UK to the European Court of Justice over the 'right to reside' test applied to EU migrants trying to access certain welfare benefits. The Commission says this test is illegal under EU law as British citizens pass it automatically. The UK Government is disputing this claim saying it is clear that the UK rules "are in line with EU law." Whatever outcome, this has huge political and symbolic implications.

Details of the legal action will be announced later today.

Open Europe Research Director Stephen Booth said,
