I can differentate but do you not understand that asylum seekers and immigrants are not linked? ie. when you allow more immigrants you also get more asylum seekers.

1 - you said yourself asylum seekers cant work and have to have benefits, this costs money as well as the housing provided.
2 - immigrants are the opposite and are restricted in terms of benefits but do still cost the country money for public services and housing space.

You are arguing with me as if I am saying stop immigration when I am merely saying it needs to be cut down.
You appear to be suggesting that a country cannot have a moratorium on immigration without also having one on asylum seekers, is that really what you're suggesting?

By virtue of working, immigrants pay taxes, such as council tax and income tax, and VAT, and duty on items imported which otherwise wouldn't be sold.
Hence why there is a net gain not loss from immigrants.
So yes, they do cost, like you cost, but they pay for their costs, unlike the workshy scrotes in social housing who've never done an honest day's work in their life.
