Yes there is a labour shortage. But it’s worth noting that there is no one more permanent than an immigrant who enters Britain.
Last year there were 100k claims and the govt removed just 10k people (30% of which were to Albania).
There is vast fraud in the work and education visa space (IT programmers who are in reality minicab drivers and chefs, students who don’t study, care workers who have never cared). The vast majority of visa holders cannot speak English.
That 68% boat grant rate is driven by people claiming to 🇦🇫🇪🇷🇸🇾🇾🇪 and 🇸🇩. Periodic reminder that none of them arrive with documents. And docs from countries like 🇦🇫 are essentially worthless. It is almost impossible to test someone’s nationality. So the Home Office takes it at face value and grants.
Figures released today show 3 of the 5 largest countries from which asylum claimants come are 🇵🇰🇧🇩 and 🇮🇷. What wars are occurring there?
These people are economic migrants for whom the asylum system is a gamble with better than 50% odds of winning. The odds should be 5% but the Home Office gives people grants simply for asserting that they’re gay or ex-Muslims. No scrutiny.
This is nonsense. The court interpreted the law, it wasn’t influenced by public opinion. Yes Epping councils decision to go to court was driven by public opinion. But hosting asylum claimants is a zero sum game. There is no plausible scenario free of financial incentives where a council would welcome them.
