Illegals migrants continue to flow into Britain across the English Channel, while the British government refuses to act beyond lip service. The consequences for the British people of this ongoing hijrah (Iranians, Albanians, Iraqis, Afghans, Syrians) will be felt harshly in the near future, economically as well as in terms of crime and national security.
Much more of this is expected, as Johnson continues to do nothing.
“Asylum claims hit near 20-year high as backlog of cases soars,” Press Association, May 26, 2022:
The number of asylum claims made in the UK has climbed to its highest in nearly two decades, while the backlog of cases waiting to be determined continues to soar.
There were 55,146 asylum applications in the UK in the year to March 2022 – the highest number for any 12-month period since the year to September 2003, when the total stood at 61,343.
The number of applications from lone migrant children is also at its highest level for any 12-month period since records began in 2006. Some 4,081 applications from unaccompanied asylum-seeking children (UASC) were made in the year to March 2022.
The increase in applications was “likely linked in part to the easing of global travel restrictions that were in place due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and to a sharp increase in small boat arrivals to the UK”, the Home Office report said.
At the end of March 2022, there were 109,735 people awaiting an initial decision on their case, 66% higher than the previous year when 66,185 people were waiting.
This is more than double the number in March 2020 when the coronavirus pandemic began (51,906) and is a new all-time high since current records began in June 2010.
The figures come as the Home Office announced it was setting up an action group to look at how to speed up the processing of asylum claims in a bid to increase the number of decisions made on cases on a weekly basis….
Of the 109,735 people waiting for an initial decision on their asylum application at the end of March this year, 14,003 (13%) were Iranian nationals, 12,740 (12%) Albanian and 12,156 (11%) Iraqi, according to analysis by the PA news agency.
Afghan nationals accounted for 5,975 of the total, or 5%.
Some 5,364 Syrians were waiting for a decision, who also comprised 5% of the total….
Three-quarters (75%) of all initial decisions in the year ending March 2022 were grants, which is “substantially higher than previous years”, and the highest rate in more than 30 years, since 82% in 1990, according to the Home Office….

UK: 109,735 mostly Muslim migrants await asylum decision, most will likely be accepted
……………
More suicidal insanity. This is about the population of Chester, Ipswich, Salisbury, Scarborough, or Stratford-on-Avon, and is larger than Exeter or Dover.

Thanks Christine. A timely reminder.
Turkey hosts 3.7 million registered refugees, mainly Syrian,. Does the EU hand- out cover the board and lodging, and how long does the contract last?
Given Erdogans damming of the Tigris and Euphrates, I doubt many refugees will go home.
How do you see this potential threat?
John says
If it’s left to Priti Patel or Boris Johnson they will accept everyone of them.
To them it’s just as easy

I guess Pritti&Borris were just calming the British citizenry down with all the talk about Rwanda processing centers for illegal Muslim migrants. “Give them bread” the ancient Romans used to say. Now the treachery by politicians on their populace is becoming obvious. The illegal Islamic migration rewarded.
The murder of Sir David Amess in a church last year did not give politicians a hint at the dangers of importing people by the millions who carry the baggage of Islam in their heads.
Paul says
Well said Hank, couldn’t have put it better myself.
Paul says
Thanks to Nigel Farage the UK is out of every organisation (even the Dublin Agreement on refugees) so the Brits are utterly powerless to do anything as they no longer have a seat at the table. They’ll just have to accept it from now on. Nevertheless, Farage continues to stir up trouble, shouting about a situation that he himself largely helped to bring about and appealing to angry Daily Mail readers in their echo chamber. His grifting continues and his bank balance continues to swell, that’s the main thing. He won’t have to live anywhere near these people so it’s all good.
