Quote: wotsupcas "Sorry but he's correct. Anyone arriving in a boat from France, having paid thousands to a criminal gang, is an economic migrant and is NOT an asylum seeker in any way shape or form.'"
Yet the facts do not support what you are saying.
1. High refusal rates
– The majority of UK asylum seekers’ claims (two in three) are turned down, the highest refusal rate in Europe. In Denmark, by contrast, four in five are successful.
2. Mistaken decisions
– A large number of initial decisions made by the Home Office on asylum cases are later found to be wrong. In 2016, the courts overturned Home Office decisions in 41% of asylum appeals.
What this shows is that 33% of those who arrive here via boats are accepted by the British Government , the British courts, the British civil service as being 100% Bona Fide asylum seekers .
Still let’s not let the boards little Tommy Robinson let facts get in the way of addressing the BIG problems that we face such as millions being unable to afford food, heating or proper beds for their children. It is all these forinners fault . Tommy, Farage , Bojo’s and wotsupcas’ arguement.
