The Biden admin is moving the asylum-seeking process online with the CBP One app, which uses facial recognition technology that we know to be racially discriminatory. And, asylum seekers don't always have cell phone or internet access. They deserve a more humane process.

Close the border.

Patriotmom🇺🇸🇨🇺3 years ago

I cannot say loudly & clearly enough-our immigration system is a complete MESS. I don't know what the answer is, but we aren't even close to finding it & OPEN BORDERS is NOT it. No consistency, tons of confusion, people forced to live off gov't-probably what you commie libs want.

They deserve to be spun around and shipped home.

The lack of proper asylum vetting has led to this. How many of the claims are denied. 80% or close, and that most likely doesn't include all the no-shows for hearings.

Keir Starmer crucifies Rishi Sunak over the Rwanda Scheme at #PMQs Did you know, if it did pass, we would only be able to send 100 asylum seekers to Rwanda? There are 75,492 asylum seekers in the UK. We are paying Rwanda over £150 million to take 100 asylum seekers. And the agreement also means we take up to 100 asylum seekers from Rwanda. So we aren't shifting the problem away, we're moving asylum seekers around like a game, all the while to appease people who want the UK to crackdown on asylum seekers, while keeping the total number of asylum seekers in the UK the same. If you think the Rwanda sceheme is fixing the asylum seeking system or backlog? Think again. The government thinks you're stupid. And if you believe their dog whistling, I suspect you probably are.

No way Canada is being flooded by asylum claims, Because of an iPhone/Android app. CBSA doesn’t process the asylum claims. The app does! With ZERO human interaction. No wonder we have record high levels of refugee claims. Then they get to stay in the country FOR YEARS, while we figure out if it’s legit or not AND THEY GET MORE HEALTHCARE ACCESS THAN WE DO. Paid by our taxes. WTF

ELON: THE AMOUNT OF LAWFARE WE’VE SEEN UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS OUTRAGEOUS “The amount of lawfare that we're seeing taking place [under the Biden administration] is outrageous. There are many examples, but the Department of Justice, for example, launched a huge lawsuit against SpaceX for failing to hire asylum seekers. Not those who were granted asylum, asylum seekers. There's a law called International Traffic and Arms Regulations. [It says that] because SpaceX develops advanced missile technology that can be used in nuclear ICBMs, we have to be very careful with who we hire. We can only hire someone if they're a permanent resident or a citizen. That's what the ITAR law says. Then there's another law that says that you cannot discriminate against asylum seekers. So, we're damned if we do, damned if we don't. The DOJ did a massive lawsuit against SpaceX for failing to hire asylum seekers, even though it is illegal for us to hire asylum seekers under ITAR law. This is an actual thing that's going on. And they can only do a fairly small number of lawsuits every year. So, why did they pick this one? Lawfare.” Source: Interview with Tucker Carlson, October 2024

That is not true. There's a very meaningful dispute about whether they had properly applied for asylum.” “You can read the same briefs I can. And what you just said is not true.”

What would you want to happen to you if this country was an unliveable basketcase -audience claps- and that is your answer" "France takes 3x more asylum seekers than we do.

Immigration minister Robert Jenrick says if you process the claims of asylum seekers more quickly that encourages more people to come. He's admitting that leaving asylum seekers in limbo, in temporary accommodation, not allowed to work, not able to restart their lives, for years on end, is a deliberate policy.

Channel 4 News cover the creation and rise of hotels for asylum seekers Your reminder that it was the Conservative government that created this problem by stopping the processing of asylum seeker applications because they thought their Rwanda scheme which only send 4 volunteers to Rwanda was the solution to the UK being outside the EU with Brexit and unable to return asylum seekers back to the first country they entered the EU as we were no long party to the Dublin agreement, which in turn is the reason why so many asylum seekers come to the UK on small boats because they know that outside the EU the mechanism to return them no longer exists I.e. all of this was created by the Conservatives and Labour are now in. the process of trying to fix this, and while they've done some positive things they still have a long way to go, including doing the thing which they repeatedly called for in opposition but still haven't done in government: safe and legal routes

We unpacked what the Constitutional Court ruling means for asylum seekers, why access to the application process matters and the challenge of balancing legal protections with concerns about the capacity of the asylum system. How does South Africa protect the right to seek asylum while ensuring the system is properly managed? Catch the podcast on

🚨ASYLUM SEEKERS DESERVE MORE MONEY AND BETTER HOUSING🚨 Senedd members urged the Government to give asylum seekers more money and better housing. In a statement titled "Refugee Week: Wales a Nation of Sanctuary", Julie James said she was "frustrated" the request was ignored. The requests, made in 2018, provide further clarity on the purpose of the Nation of Sanctuary policy. James confirmed Welsh Government "advocated for increasing financial support for asylum seekers awaiting decisions, additional money for local authorities to support asylum seekers in their area and improved asylum accommodation standards". James condemned the Government for failing to increase the money paid to asylum seekers. "Unfortunately, to say the least, the UK Government does not appear to have incorporated our recommendations in the design of their forthcoming asylum accommodation contracts or significantly increased financial support in the asylum system," she said. "It is no secret that we are often frustrated by the UK Government's decisions in relation to asylum and migration matters," she added. James also criticised "negative effects" of what she considered hardline UK Government policies on asylum, and confirmed she planned to intervene. "We are continuing to consider improvements that we can make to support those seeking sanctuary, including looking at extending eligibility for education grants and concessionary transport to asylum seekers," she said. A request to ease the restrictions on asylum seekers' access to public money was also made. James claimed this was essential to integration and urged the Home Office "not to undermine this intention by placing Welsh Government funding streams on the list of prohibited public funds in the immigration rules". James' statement was preceded by a performance by "Oasis", a Welsh Government funded choir for asylum seekers. She urged colleagues to demonstrate to them that "Wales, a small nation, punches above its weight when it comes to providing sanctuary". Senedd members have, in the past few weeks, placed significant emphasis on the term "integration", claiming this is the real purpose of the Nation of Sanctuary policy. Yet their approach to integration, of giving more money and better housing to asylum seekers, will have the effect of encouraging more to come. The policy must be scrapped.

Unelected bureaucrat David Cameron explains how we need the Rwanda plan because of Brexit 🤦‍♂️ Anushka Asthana, "Hand on heart. If this had come up when you were PM, would you have gone with this Rwanda policy?" David Cameron, "We had a situation where you could return people directly to France.. People land on a beach in Kent, you take them straight back to France.. You therefore break the model of the people smugglers" Anushka Asthana, "Shouldn't you be trying to get that?" David Cameron, "That's not available at the moment" Anushka Asthana, "Because of Brexit?" David Cameron, "(Yes) Because of the situation we are in (having left the EU)" The UK has participated in the Dublin process since it was inaugurated in 1990. When the UK left the EU, the UK left the Dublin agreement and we no longer have the automatic right to return asylum seekers back to France. So Brexit was to take back control from unelected bureaucrats, and here we have David Cameron an unelected bureaucrat in charge of our foreign policy. And Brexit was about taking control of our borders and asylum seekers, and we've lost the ability to return asylum seekers to France, and instead have to spend over £1,000,000 to send asylum seekers to Rwanda, in a 1 in 1 out policy i.e. for every asylum seeker we send to Rwanda, they send us one of their asylum seekers, so we don't have fewer asylum seekers, we're just shuffling asylum seekers around. Hundreds of millions for a PR campaign to appease racists while there is a cost of living crisis in the UK and millions of Brits living in poverty. Disgraceful.
