Help Convince the Goverment to Increase Support for Asylum Seekers

I’ve just written to Immigration Minister Phil Woolas, to ask him to reinstate previous support levels to asylum seekers. including lone parents with dependent children. I want to make sure that nobody has to survive on only £35 a week.

Now it’s your turn – it only takes a moment. Ministers are due to make a decision on asylum support in the next few weeks, so there’s a chance to really make a difference.

£35 a week?, not so ….

Asylum seekers are housed in furnished homes which are repair free and they do not pay to heat or light these homes – the British taxpayers pay asylum seekers’ utility bills. Asylum seekers are given free school and college education, free NHS treatment, free dental care, free specs, free financial benefits, free translation services and free legal aid to keep them in Britain when their pleas to stay come up again and again for legal hearing. Their offspring receive 100% child benefit.

Every £ doled out to an asylum seeker is a £ taken from our own deprived and needy people.
