THE children of two illegal immigrants facing the boot from Britain are getting a £300-a-week from taxpayers — while living in Africa.

The UK-born pair — a boy, seven, and girl, one — moved in with their aunt last month after a court ruled their parents were unfit to care for them.

The family’s county council, thought to be in Southern England, has agreed to pay £15,600-a-year to the children over the next nine years, until the eldest turns 16.

The youngest will be supported for six more years at around £150 a week — another £46,800.

By the time she is 16 in 2033 the total bill will top £187,000.

Tory Andrew Bridgen blasted: “This case lays bare the cost of illegal immigration to taxpayers.”

A Family Court judgment revealed the mum, 37, arrived on a working holiday visa from Africa in 2004.

She then switched to a student visa until 2012.

But when she applied for UK residency a year later she was turned down.

The woman then applied for asylum, claiming she was a sex abuse and trafficking victim. Both claims were exposed as fake.

The dad, 37, arrived on a working holiday visa in around 2004.

He was convicted of possessing a fake passport and jailed for six months.

He has also spent eight months in a detention centre, at a cost of at least £86 per day.

The court heard the dad had been accused of domestic violence, while the mum was a constant liar.

Mr Justice Moor said the allowance would ensure the children have a comfortable and secure life.
