Asylum cheats make me mad
ONE OF the questions on the Big Brother application form was, “What makes you really angry”?
I said, “Bogus asylum seekers who take advantage of the system”.
Having read the latest statistics from Migrationwatch UK, I stand by that.
Would you believe the number of failed asylum seekers who later win appeals to stay in Britain rose from 1200 in 1996 to 14,000 last year?
Remember, these people have already failed to convince the immigration authorities they were genuine cases. Can you comprehend that Britain now takes 23 per cent of all economic migrants entering the EU?
£1.8 billion
Does it stun you to discover that just to process all the asylum applications costs British taxpayers £1.8 billion every single year?
These figures left me speechless. Well, almost.
It proves what I’ve suspected all along. Our asylum system is in disarray and it’s turning the country into a laughing stock.
Every other week I seem to read about the huge debt the average Brit is in, or the hundreds of thousands of Scottish children who are still living in absolute poverty.
In this day and age that’s an absolute disgrace.
Yet week after week, month after month, we welcome thousands of people into this country, then offer them a small share of the wealth we quite clearly do not have. We’re a soft touch and I’m fed-up with it.
If you disagree then tell me why countless numbers of refugees risk their lives in the back of lorries to get into Britain? Why don’t they get off in Germany, France or Italy?
Easy target
It’s because Britain is an easy target and they know it.
Call me a right-winger if you want — I don’t believe I am. But then, in the last few months I’ve been called everything from a homophobic to a misogynist, so it’s like water off a duck’s back to me now. What I am saying is something must be done.
While Britain’s doors may not be fully open, they’re clearly left ajar and this is evidently encouraging people who are not genuinely in need of our help to try to get into our country.
The Government claim immigrants enhance our lives with their diversity of culture, yet many of them choose not to integrate and all that does is breed racism and distrust.
They argue that allowing more in will benefit our economy. That’s all very well, but will the extra contributions they make to the Exchequer be invested into our already over-stretched schools, hospitals and roads?
Shortage
Come to think of it, where will they live? Isn’t there a drastic shortage of housing in Britain?
We’re told falling population rates need to be urgently reversed and that economic migrants are the answer, but what’s the point in letting people in who can contribute nothing in terms of skills? All that will do is drain our country of its already scant resources.
For goodness sake, we must do everything we can to assist those who genuinely need our help. But we must also change our policy to ensure those who aren’t genuine never arrive here in the first place.
There’s been talk of following the lead of the Australians and holding asylum seekers on foreign islands whilst their applications are being processed. I couldn’t agree more.
Vast numbers
Firstly, it will dissuade such vast numbers from trying to get into Britain which, in turn, will reduce the time it takes to process genuine applications. Secondly, it means those waiting won’t be able to escape and disappear into the background.
I don’t know a single soul who doesn’t think this country has a part to play in helping the needy. By the same token, I haven’t come across anyone who believes we should give hand-outs to the greedy.
Yes, each case must be considered on its merits and, yes, we all have sympathy for folk worse off than ourselves.
But sympathy without sense is hopeless
