Asylum claims fell by more than a fifth to just over 10,000 for the last quarter.
So, let's make it crystal clear for the last time:
- We're not being 'swamped'
- Asylum applications are falling
- Labour has the issue well under control despite claims to the contrary by the racist brigade.
So change the fucking record already.

Somalia: 1,000 applicants
Iran: 725
China: 615
Zimbabwe: 545
Turkey: 460
DR Congo: 405
Pakistan: 405
India: 385
Iraq: 340
Afghanistan: 285
Every one of those countries has been ravaged by war and/or has a history of serious human right abuses and political violence.
Hardly 'bogus'.
Hardly 'spongers'.
maybe this ties in with Moxon/Hughes fiasco whereby would be asylum seekers from E. Bloc were rushed in on no real checks in Romania/Bulgaria, so instead of being here as asylum seekers they are here as supposed legal immigrants
We'll never really know now
Predictable as ever.
HMGov, you've been rumbled
read Aladdin's post properly, please.
just because a pop group isn't in the top 10 doesn't mean it isn't in the top 40.
come on, attention to detail, please.
frothing about posts ppl hadn't even made, tut tut
No, why are 1,000 applicants making it here from Somalia across at least one continent of safe countries?
I think we should be told:D
Hey - POT KETTLE BLACK
because almost all of them stop in neighbouring countries, ie millions and by the time you check for asylum seekers this far away, its reduced to a trickle
and also cause these people do want futures, and in france/germany's case, our economy is outdoing them and we dont have large unemplyment and we have less benefits
Do you think people walk here from Somalia?
No
When you are on a boat or plane the notion pof borders becomes irrelevant, thus people get spread out, what wrong with that, don't think we should take our fair share?
I was wondering earlier what your most likely 'response' would be. I see that I got it right... When everything fails, blame the government of lying or getting the figures wrong.
You must really be getting very desperate at BNP towers aren't ya?
Because the UK has one of the oldest Somali expat communities in Europe. Bit like Brits going to Oz.
So where do you get your info from?
Our fair share should be zero by the dismal 1951 Convention as they cross one or more continents of safe countries?

Debatable, more like the Tories didn't stem the flow fromf Horn of Africa in late 80's
Nothing like Brits going to Oz, we didn't offer assisted passage nor do we vet immigrants as in Oz
stop being such a bore:rolleyes:
Thats rather rich, coming from someone with only one topic they post on.
You gonna answer Blagsta's question?
wtf are you on about
bog off
Debatable? not at all, there have been immigrants from Somalia in Cardiff (Tiger Bay) for several generations. A lot of Brits go to Oz due to having a link (social and historical) there in the same way that people from Oz come here, its a common thing with migration.
I'm on about you avoiding his question. Take it you're not gonna answer it?
Debatable, you've no reason to suppose there was a knowledge of or connection between the large nos of Somalis leaving late '80s and the small no in cardiff
UK originally colonized OZ, set up it population quite unlike the cardiffset up
Debatable
UK shouldn't have let them in anyway
