The number of swindlers claiming ‘asylum’ in Britain continues to rise as this country’s open doors money-for-all policy makes us the destination of choice for the world’s liars, swindlers and cheats.
The top 10 countries of origin for ‘asylum seekers’ heading to Britain are Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Zimbabwe, China, Somalia, Pakistan, North Korea and Sri Lanka.
According to official figures, asylum claims are steadily rising while the number of failed applicants sent home is falling.
The Office for National Statistics said that 6,045 applications for asylum were made during the three months to June this year. This figure is only for the main applicant. On average, there are at least four dependents with each main applicant, meaning that the actual number of scroungers coming here to live off the taxpayer is in the neighbourhood of 25,000 in the last three months.
This represents an increase of four percent for the previous three month period, the ONS said.
Meanwhile, in the second quarter of this year, a total of 15,515 failed ‘asylum seekers’ were deported or left the country of their own accord.
That total was three percent fewer than the 15,930 deported or leaving voluntarily in the second quarter of 2008.
An indication of the tidal wave nature of the asylum swindle is the fact that there is a backlog of 450,000 cases still being worked on by Home Office staff.
The ONS figures show a significant rise in the number of foreigners given the right to stay indefinitely in the UK, including many asylum claimants.
A total of 162,630 were granted settlement rights in the 12 months to the end of last June, a rise of nine percent compared with the previous year. Earlier this month researchers forecast a huge rise in applications for asylum in Britain.
Population trend figures published by the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development, and analysed by the think tank Migrationwatch, showed the combined populations of the countries that send the most asylum seekers to Britain will rise by 26 percent over the next 40 years.
* The British National Party’s asylum policy is in full accord with international law. This states that people fleeing genuine persecution in fear of their lives have the right to refuge in the first safe country bordering the nation they are fleeing.
People from the top ten asylum origins in Britain have no legal claim to asylum here, and a BNP government will deport them forthwith, after abolishing the free handouts system which draws them in the first place.
