- Clearing the asylum backlog has created another crisis, say charities.
Those who have been granted refugee status lose access to asylum seeker housing and they're left with nowhere to go.

Our own homeless should come before any uninvited unwanted immigrants.
Totally agree.
Agreed 🤝
Im 29 homeless. I don’t do drugs or drink I lost my job and couldn’t afford rent. I haven’t eaten in days and I won’t steal or beg for money. The government won’t help me and I have to wait to the 13 for UC. But will be less they they spend on hotels per week, I honesty think I won’t make it through to NYE
@@1oli100Manage to have a phone and internet tho 🤦♂️
But that's not the case.
It's financially more profitable for the government to cater to the needs of migrants.
And from a political aspect, it's forecasted as a betterment to serve the needs of those arriving in the country in small boats, over the citizens of this country.
At the moment 85% of the UK government's attention is invested towards addressing the situation of the mass migration epidemic and only 15% of the government's time is given towards tackling domestic issues.
Couldn't care less , until all British citizens are housed , this should not even be a headline.
Agreed
👏👏👏👏👏
When our own people are being intentionally ignored charity runs dry
dont vote tory, we cant win we end up with a labour gov far worse
There is a big difference. Our own homeless people do not want to work on principle, although they have the right to work. But asylum seekers do not have the right to work, so the state is obliged to provide for them
@@tyuuuu1416another very virtuous defender of then poeple who shouldn't be here in the first place
Damn right! Let them work. Let them build a life.
Listen to the article the first man has been granted Asylum and is now able to work. He would now have all the rights of a UK national and able to claim benefits. He would have had to leave his given accommodation when his claim was granted and allowed to work. Like many UK nationals he is unfortunately homeless it's not because he is an Asylum seeker.
Don't buy him a shelter, buy him a ticket home
Dont buy this person a book, buy him a whole brain
Well said
@@DG-iw3ywnice burn bro
Lol
Buy him nothing he can get his own ticket home
It is hard to have compassion for people who came here via asylum when our citizens are struggling.
REMEMBER THEY LEFT FRANCE WHEN THEY DIDNT NEED TO
🥶🥶🥶
As soon as they get a free house they can go home for a holiday
@@BrenThen4367 .and Greece, and Italy, and Germany...........
Look after our own people first
I feel absolutely no compassion or empathy with these people at all.
Yes, there is absolutely an option for 99% of them to go back home!
A lot have paid £1000s to get here theyve got homes where they came from
They're the legal anchor that allows the rest of their extended families to come here. That's why they stay.
100% to go home
Disband these charities now they are the problem
CEOs salary & perks cream off most of the donations one of the reasons i dont give to any charity but give to local charity
True, this is the result of people welcoming them all in disregarding the indigenous. How did he manage to bring his wife over?
Yes they are
Yep they all get huge government funding (taxpayers money) to waste on this lot.
Charity’s are crying their eyes out right now because donations have massively dropped now relying on government not even a fraction of the money that was donated
The charities encouraged and helped these chancers to Britain and now they can keep looking after them!
What’s a chancer?
Someone whos blatently taking liberties
@@ThoreauMyLifeAwaysomeone who is coming here from an already safe country to take advantage of our social housing and benefits system by blagging that they’re mentally scarred from fleeing their country to claim pip and get a home with rent paid before our own people. That is my description of one of these chancers, hope that helps.
@ThoreauMyLifeAway Someone who turns up uninvited expecting everything for free, like the illegal boat lot.
Charities get no money from me to help these alians.
Guess what! There's hundreds of our own people living on the streets.
More like thousands...its a clear sign of how the UK is downhill. Those clowns in parliament seem oblivious.
@@meglobob9217 The same is going on in the US. Weird huh?
1.3 k die on our streets annually
I became homeless when my landlord sold our home and there being very little rentals. I was told I was ok sleeping in a car and know people who have been handed tents due to lack of rentals. Why should it be different for these people?
I lived in a vw golf for 8 months in Central london. I was working a 40hr week during this time. The first month was managble. The second was stressful. By the 8 month major depression had set in, I felt myself turning ferrel.
I eventually won my case with the council thanks to the law center and got a council maisonette. I shudder remembering those 8 months
Yeah I was working two job pulling 50-60 hours. Why should the tax payer live like this while our tax’s put them in hotels? The whole system is wrong. If people want them to stop coming we need to stop being to giving and they won’t come here.
@@rightherethereeverywhere it's a job creation scheme for the middle class. Funded by a naive and misguided section of the public
@@rightherethereeverywhere look at the CEOs salaries & perks
They shouldn't even be on the list till every last British person is housed !
If we accept British people sleeping rough, I'm not sure why its so terrible for an illegal migrant to do so. Also, we have to remember... France is a safe and one of the strongest economies in the world. Complete safety from whatever they were fleeing... There is obviously a clear reason why someone would risk their life on a boat to get to the UK. It's not for the weather is it...
This government is not British.
Fish and chips is why
Yeah but there’s French people there.
France's laws are not the same as UK. Religious face coverings are banned along with religious body covering and head scarfs are not to be worn in places like schools. Asylum seekers from Sudan like in this news coverage is predominantly Muslim. So UK would be preferable, less descriminatory on that basis. France's regulations are discussed as breaking away from human rights.
It’s for the benefits system, they see they can blag a pip claim get social housing before our own needy people because they say they’ve come from seeing terrible things that have scarred them mentally. So there it is job done hundreds of pounds a month for nothing and a house to live in rent paid. That is why they see the UK as an attractive destination.
I was born here and I’m barely eligible for a council flat. Not too sure how these lot think they have a chance. 😂
Dont forgot the 8+ year wait
Exactly. I waited three years to get my place and had to stay with friends. Nobody gave me a hotel room - it’s a joke.
Perhaps if we didn't vote for parties and politicians that don't believe in the state (unless it's for their own expenses or a nice contract for the companies they're being paid to lobby for) and would actually force developers to build social housing instead of 3-5 bedroom houses that are far more profitable and barely any infrastructure and community upgrades (GP surgeries etc), then we wouldn't have such a crisis in the first place.
They jump the queue because they say they’re mentally scarred from fleeing their home country and blag a pip claim and get social housing because they’re then deemed more vulnerable than our own homeless citizens. The system is a joke, it needs changing from this silly banded system where our own people are not given precedence over these economic migrants.
@@pauln6803 we already build 200,000 plus houses per year not a small amount , with the amount of new comers its impossible to make it sustainable without a serious hike in british citizen poverty , not only are we turfing the locals out , we are depriving them of services that are stretched , the numbers need to drastically reduce to have any plan that will work
We don't want a single one of them here.
Speak for yourself
💯@facts.
@@ReviewBoard-uy5nvkeep him at your house then lefty
@ReviewBoard-uy5nv No, they speak for me.

Our homeless nationals come first .
Anyone can be homeless if they don't work. To much use of alcohol/ drugs....
Yet your homeless don't pay the rent
@@wasiraja1353refugees are not allowed to work. They are required to live off their savings (they must arrive with 20,000). That is gone within a year
own fault fed a promise of lies on tik tok from people smugglers
Deporting asylum seekers won’t stop homelessness - support for addicts and decent social care and social housing will help with that.
So if his asylum has been rejected why can he reapply ? Seems pointless rejecting it in the first place. And if it’s been rejected why has he been allowed to live on the streets and not deported back to Iraq ?
Very good question!
After he has been accepted, then he will go back to his home country for vacation
@@antonnysekikubo340 so true!
One or way r another, the system is designed to guarantee *no one* is EVER deported.
It'll be because he was living in a hotel, took the P, got thrown out so the help stops, and can now reapply again as homeless.
So what, we have our own homeless. Without these qeue jumpers. Not our problem.
👍
What I don’t get is surely any governments duty of care is firstly owed to the people that elected it?
Best news on this agenda so far.
We need to make it very uncomfortable for asylum seekers.
I agree but let’s call them what they are. Economic migrants.
Asylum seekers would have claimed asylum in one of the 5 safe countries they travelled through to get here.
😂😂😂 comment made my day
But the governments need to put the message out there so people know this before attempting the dangerous journey. I am lucky enough to live in Australia and our government put the message out that no one arriving by irregular means will be given leave to remain Australia. Our infrastructure is not coping with the increase of legal migrants so the government has promised to cut the numbers. But we see what happens now.
But we now have an issue of people arriving by air with a visitors visa and return ticket and then claiming asylum once they’re here!! Which is why say the definition needs reviewing as the interpretation is open to abuse.
The more uncomfortable the better. Economic migrants are not wanted.
Agreed well said ❤
He should have picked a warmer country 😂
i bet they are regretting leaving france
Init. Lol
-5 in January
I work in social services and charities are the worst. They encourage people to lie about thier circumstances to get support they're not entitled to from the local authority pushing those that are entitled to it, down the list. If they care so much.. house them yourselves. We can tell which charity has coached which person based on the script they use. Its appalling how much burden this is placing on already stretched local authorities
I lived and worked in the Middle East where I witnessed many people that would lie through their back teeth to get what they want. This is very worrying as they will think to lie is very normal. Something needs to be done about these corrupt charities.
I see this with claims for disability benefits too! Exploiting the wording to get claims.
Expose them
Name and shame these charities aka the biggest scam artists out there
There is a massive difference between refugees and migrants.
thier own fault fed a promise of lies on tik tok from people smugglers
A pivotal point, which stupidly gets glossed over in most discussion.
There is, but for many refugees there are plenty of safe countries other than the UK.
No there is not because migrants will just say they are refugees .
No refugee need go anywhere near the UK.
*What about veterans homeless ON THE STREET* ??
Yeah what about them. They CHOSE their lifestyle when they chose to be a gun for hire.
My daughter and her family get pushed further and further down the housing list in liverpool, she works full time, pays her taxes but gets no help with re housing in favour of these people who contribute nothing except increasing the crime rate.
In my town I walk past white homeless men every single day.
Why is this guy so special?
It's shocking that they are homeless but there are tens of thousands of UK born people who are or will soon be homeless due to the cuts. At some point there has to be common sense where we start saying to look after who is born in this country first. We seem to turn a blind eye to people born here that will face xmas on the streets or some hostel
As an Australian expat, I will never forget that the Australian government closed its borders and locked me out of my own country during the COVID pandemic. There's constant talk about the rights of illegal immigrants and asylum seekers, but citizenship means nothing.
Will the whole world knows that the Australian government took covid way to far
They are however very keen to levy taxes on and penalize expats at any and every opportunity. The media is also an endless stream of anti-male hysteria.
We have a desperate situation here in Liverpool...we are being saturated with immigrants and others councils are sending people here....I am a 55 year old diabetic woman with arthritis...I have no family and I work in a minimum wage job.. where I have to bid for shifts.i don't claim any benefits..no turkey at Christmas for me.... the majority of my income goes on my rented one bedroom flat..... please stop advertising the UK as the land of milk and honey...we have more than enough problems of our own.also beware giving money to foreign street beggars in Liverpool city centre ... group of them have accommodation off Smithdown road and get driven into the city centre daily to beg.. they have handwritten cardboard signs....all in the same handwriting
Housing is a big problem for many Brits too.......we need to sort out the levels of net immigration or we will never get a handle on this
Gross immigration numbers are replacing white British who are leaving the country. Total inflow is the number to look at NOT net immigration.
too late. Irreversible now.
So what are the housing authorities supposed to do ?? If we dont have enough accommodation for native brits how the hell are we supposed to house and feed people from all over the world ??? Why should the British tax payer foot the bill for all these people ?
Go and on king Charles he want them in also ...Lineker and Canterbury bishops 😅
Im a disabled pensioner ill and sleeping on a sofa 18 months no ones helping me
Charity begins at home. Until we take care of our homeless, especially veterans then these people are not priority and shouldn’t jump any queue.
But that is what they are doing. They know more about it than they let on.
They suck great the country dry
The homeless don’t get to stay in a hotel get 3 meals a day and weekly spending money on the tax payer
So are the homeless nationals, they are homeless too
Homeless Brits should come first in the priority list ... this is just comon sense.
im not sorry for them we have our own homeless they think they will just walk into a house
The penny has dropped for some of these chancers. Not wanted or needed!
We have to look after our own first, it really is as simple as that!
Sunak is not our own obviously.
Domestic homeless people must be looked after before so-called (self-proclaimed) asylum seekers. When their applications are denied, they have no reasons nor entitlement to stay in the country.
Don’t worry, they are going home for Christmas and will be back in the New Year 👍
Why don't they just go home 🤷♂️..
What about the English homeless people who were born in England 🤷♂️
they could go back to their homes in their own country. if we were stopping the boats like we should be there would not be this problem would there?!
there are a lot of natives/locals that homeless as well, and they should be priority. those 6 millions per day could help the locals, the country itself
Spot on!
Stop the benefits stop the migrants it's that simple give them nothing and i mean nothing
Correct. Then a one way ticket back home the message will travel far 🇮🇪
By international authorities uk r obliged 2 help these ppl who from war torn countries..so do u self a favour and sdfu 😅
@@Sthmohtwentyshut up
@@Sthmohtwenty he who laughs last laughs longest
How about reporting the native homeless
Absolutely...its not HEADLINE NEWS...PATHETIC..
I hope the news about asylum seekers flying ho me for Christmas will give some perspective on this subject. This man may well be genuine but we have home grown needs too. Those abusing the system are a disgrace and should be imprisoned or sent back as they are harming thise who are genuine. The Home office need to do their jobs properly!
Maybe we should find out where the charities who are responsible for this mess are and send them straight to their door
Best idea yet
Im British and i cant bring my wife in but these guys can
This is the unfairness of it. He has no home or job yet can bring his wife over. They will get the wife pregnant and will be straight up the que.
@@garrywynne1218 Exactly my conclusion. This man will have received assistance from the Refugee NGO to apply for a visa for his wife. With the strong recommendation that they have an 'anchor baby' pronto. Much higher certainty that an asylum claiming FAMILY receives a house than a single male! #GovernedByTraitors
This headline makes British people very angry.
Our country is being run by people that hate us.
If they think we care they are wrong
They’re demonstrating they have the whip hand over us
"the government says the asylum system is broken"
it's working just how they want it to
The best model to adopt is the Dubai style and of other middle East Arab countries.
They allow people to work , earn etc in their country. But they will not be given permanent citizenship because it will corrupt their ethnicity.
Workers must leave after their work is over. They cannot stay permanently there.
I don't think Dubai has any form of benefits either?
@@p4ndasr0ckno they don't have but they do have a lot of slave labour.
@@p4ndasr0ck Anyone can earn there as long as possible and even send money home.
No permanent citizenship or residency is given to anyone.
It is the same in Kuwait also and other countries there!
So why do we not do the same. And, why do Islamic countries refuse to take Islamic refugees? Oh, look at the mess they are making of Britain. I wonder why?
@vjamesg100 They are smart enough to give many special benefits to their own citizens but will never give citizenship to outsiders who have come to earn .
The outsiders who come there have their loyalty to their own country of origin and cultural affiliation.
It is dangerous to give citizenship to anyone especially when they have no intention of integrating and respecting the land come to make money and exploit. They only lie to get in.
It is shocking that besides legal working people entering countries in Europe and elsewhere and get citizenship and now all riff raff ,antisocial people, illegal migrants being thrust into their countries illegally and are given citizenship easily like confetti.
Countries should be smart enough to realise the value of their country and look after their citizens instead of giving away citizenship to anyone carelessly.
This is how smartly Dubai, Kuwait etc have developed astonishingly well yet they will not give citizenship to anyone however highly skilled or unskilled. People can stay and earn as long as they want but can never become citizens!!
Politicians should change places for six months. Out on the streets with the clothes they are wearing and £10 in their pocket and nothing else. Perhaps they might stop squandering money on foreigners and think of our own citizens. Or, if that's a bit too tough, six months in a council flat surrounded by alien scrum and living on the state pension.
Once u take him in give him few months he will start asking for sharia and jihad …
This is the sad reality now. Once upon a time a better life was possible in the UK, USA, Canada, NZ, Australia. For the ones that are not escaping war they are better to stay in their own homes in their own countries because they will never own a home in these countries now, would even be lucky to get a decent job and a rental home.
All by design?
He doesn't have entitlement if he came here on a dinghy ffs
Ask yourselves why there is too liitle social housing in this country now, for anyone on need.
It has served the Tories well?
Uninvited guests time to go
I dont believe the 22,000 have been returned.
Its hard for our people too and we should always have our needs put first.
this will bankrupt more councils more pressure on nhs services etc less £ for improvements in uk
Yet we can still send 12 billion a year over seas, go figure.
But we end up paying no more room we are full up
Life is not always greener on the other side
But where would they get there benefits from we work hard to keep them they go home for holidays why don't they stay there
loads of english people in the same boat .
The rapid removal of asylum applications were cleared rapidly as they omitted most of the criteria and literally just said yes to almost any of the asylum seekers.
Yep no doubt done by subcontracted companies hired by rishis pals
They should of just sent them back
In an ideal world but then there are the logistical problems involved. @@jimihayes2763
And are we supposed to feel sorry! I feel for our own who are homeless and in need of help. There's new homes being built but they're not for us!!
I want, I want. Who pays for it?!
I think England is Finally waking up !! We can’t help everyone in the world out.. it’s not fair on our own people.. they need to make them uncomfortable so leave our country
Fact is the east can’t move to the west!
Suella is the person we need in government our next P M it needs a woman to sort this country out . We don’t want labour in more migrants in Tony Blair will be running this country from behind the door . Look at what he has done to G B
Come to Weston super mare and witness the nationals in shop doorways
Us first. Shouldn't even have to be said, ffs!
My son is homeless and lives in a tent and has done for nearly a year ; what about his rights !
So it's an asylum amnesty, all granted leave to remain without clearly not doing back ground checks.
The streets of the UK are not paved with Gold?
We have enough of our own homeless never fk mind about them house our own
What did he expect! He came over here with nothing, and he thought he would walk into a house straight away! that's why he brought his wife over, thought it would strengthen his case for accommodation! Our own are on the waiting list, they should be priority! This situation will only get worse, hope it sends out a message to these people!
Some good news, At least our climate is putting up some patriotic resistance!
This should not be and it is not about our nationals or not. Simply there is shortage of housing as there is no social
Housing. Private is too expensive. Refugees like any other national can work, problem is working does not pay enough anymore. I’m in London and after 25 years working I can only afford a room at £1000 plus a month. That’s reality.
Calling bs on this by sky .brand new clean blankets all for the camera good one 👍
Many of our own are long term homeless..
Love the comment “ calls into question if Britain is a safe country “ well I hope the message goes out loud and clear to these grifters and maybe just maybe they will Foxtrot Oscar back home. Oh I thought these people were the Doctors and engineers we desperately need 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
Very sad but we simply cannot house and look after everyone who just turns up here.
Why did he come with his wife knowing he has nothing then complain he and his wife are sleeping in a tent.
Well, tough should feel right at home then because plenty of people who paid into this corporate dump are homeless to.
Stop benefit
They're not a priority for housing I should think not our own come first and they have not been given priority. As the for the guy saying its not right the government should sort it out.
He's a bloody joke he says the immigrant has entitlement No he does not coming into the country illegally not invited has no documents no ID no passport .
NO ENTITLEMENT!!!!
Unfortunately they do have priority, if they arrive illegally and claim asulym they have to be housed ,fed and cared for under the human rights nonsense
"Better here but on the streets?" How on earth can charities have such an awful attitude?
It’s totally irresponsible. They should not be encouraging these people with false dreams. Their migrants could easily turn on them, when they don’t get what they expected. Don’t expect English politeness from them when disappointed.
Remember something called World war 1 and world war 2. Oh that's right our nans our grandads didn't run away did they.
To be fair, those were not civil wars.
@@lobstermashcivil wars are fought by the very same people coming over though.
They were still wars, their houses were still bombed to pieces. They still fought and died on the front line.@@lobstermash
Countries should prioritize their own citizens before considering helping immigrants
I've saved 60 grand for my spouses visa for the UK which maybe increased next year, it's taken me 7 years living hand to mouth to save this money and these guys just turn up thus making it harder for British born people to bring in a non British partner, they get zero sympathy from me.
why tax payers must suffer ?
Not even the British public can get a council house there are none why did they come? when it's all over the news how much of a struggle it is in the uk for many as it is we don't have the room for these people when our own people need housing and food and help they put themselves in this situation by coming knowing we have our own problems in the uk
Because as it stands they take priority, they will keep coming as long as our government makes it profitable for them
I would go to Rwanda with everything paid for and a warmer climate and full access to medical care, I'm a Brit.
hassan came across the channel in a small boat ....well send him back then
WHAT ABOUT THE VETERANS AND NATIVE BRITS SLEEPING ROUGH? My God this is infuriating.
Why don't they go to Russia they have plenty of room we are only a little Island and we are almost full
He needs to go home and fix his country a long with the rest of them.
Then dont come here then
I was out yesterday doing last minute Christmas shopping like I always have. Never have I seen so many homeless people out on the streets and guess what they were all white men women of all ages. I am working class grew up in a Council house in London so seen a lot over the years. Well travelled over the years so ashamed of our government on what they are doing.
Well done to that father. Showing true protective masculinity. Get the Fers out now!
The streets of the UK are not paved with Gold? Drop the Mic 🤣🤣🤣
That's a no-brainer when we have some of the indigenous population having to stay with their parents because either there is no housing or they can't afford it.
Especially bad when parents are abusive drunks
Had £16,000 to get here on a rubber boat. Most people here couldn't afford to get to France on a dinghy. Land of milk and honey was just a honey trap.
Go back!
They made a choice to come so they must deal with reality with it.
Yes people this is right so do yourself a favour and don't come hear. Italy is warmer for tents.
Maybe when the message finally filters through to these asylum seeking countries they will realise there's no point in sailing all the way to Dover on a dinghy because they'll end up living on the street.
