135,000 failed asylium seekers are allowed to stay in the UK
http://news.in.msn.com/international...mentid=4449295
Whilst the population is expected to tighten its belts cut back services we can still afford to support 135000 failed asylum seekers - yes failed claims for asylum so in theory be returned to home not stay in the UK. Then there are dependants, etc so rising to a conservative estimate of 240,000
Can anyone tell me how this is good for the country the economy how this helps save on services such as schooling and the NHS and how this will in turn help reduce the deficit and how we will pay their benefits and ultimately a state pension???
How long before this country is classed as 3rd world - so much for the Con-Dims changing things it seems we have more taxes less services effecting us yet we can still keep spending out like this - boils my p1ss!
Makes scary reading!
The British Home Office has given permanent residency to more than 135,000 failed asylum seekers in a "desperate" bid to clear a backlog of cases, a move being described by the Tories as a "backdoor amnesty".
Asylum cases that were initially unsuccessful are now being approved at a rate of up to 2,000 a week, according to a report in The Sunday Times based on leaked Home Office figures.
Many are subject to only cursory checks in what the Tories have called a "backdoor amnesty".
The report said that Theresa May, the Home Secretary, is said to have been shocked when she discovered the scale of the shambles, inherited from Alan Johnson, her Labour predecessor.
He is now shadow chancellor.
May is powerless to stop the programme as lawyers say it has created a precedent that could be used to launch a wave of legal actions from any asylum seekers who are now refused residency. Granting permanent residency is a precursor to full citizenship and entitles immigrants full benefits.
The decision is racking up massive future liabilities for taxpayers as each new permanent resident and their family can pick up between 500,000 pounds and 1 million pounds in lifetime benefits, the report claimed.
The leaked Home Office figures show that residency has been granted in 135,280 cases. If an estimated 100,000 dependants are included, the number of individuals allowed to stay rises to nearly 240,000.
When the existence of a backlog of 450,000 asylum cases first emerged in 2006, John Reid, the then home secretary, promised it would be cleared up.
Thanks a ******* lot NL - you really and truly screwed us all over!

I'm sure Theresa May has it within her power to launch a review of all residency cases granted in the last 4 years and failing that just pull the plug on the scheme and table an amendment to immigration law making all legal claims null and void.
Alan Johnson was quite spectacular on the news last week claiming he didn't know anything about economics. Maybe he should have stuck with his career in the post office.

I just do not see how this is good for the country or the population. Can only see this ending badly with additional support for the likes of the BNP and eventual civil war as a real possibility.
I am not saying 'kill the wogs' 'Muslims are bad and evil' or 'all foreigners are scroungers' - just when is enough, enough. we have half the space of France and the same if not more population.

It would still cost the taxpayer to send them home, and no doubt they don't want to shell out for that. "Human Rights" will also raise it's head, as they will all claim they've come to the UK to escape persecution, torture, etc... That is possibly true for about 0.5% of them, but the rest are just freeloaders, but we cannot possibly send them back in case they encounter hardship, so they are here to stay.
