I would love to quote official documents mart. Unfortunately 'official' documents are usually heavily edited to appear things aren't as bad as they seem.
This is the norm mart. We have it with educational success rates, health waiting lists, crime, unemployment figures, and also immigration figures. It's to keep the 'people' happy I suppose, which keeps the government in power. This happens across the globe, whether you live under a dictatorship or democracy.
We have the bigoted idiots, who want all the immigrants kicked out, as if it's the end of the world, on one side, and all the left wing loonys, who want to give the asylum seekers so much help, that the UK becomes a big 'disney world' to them, on the other side.
I'm sort of in the middle. I like living amongst different cultures, as it enriches the society we live. Immigration also boosts the economy, and if it helps their own personal situation, while they contribute to the nation, then I'm all for it. What I'm against is seeing families working 68 hours a week to make ends meet, and these families watching asylum seekers on their mobile phone 5 hours non stop, calling back home to family, calling for prostitutes to come around. Seeing these same asylum seekers get on public transport for free, while the British family has to pay. Seeing the asylum seekers children 'taxied' to school, while 'your own' children have to stand in the rain, waiting for the bus.
Apparently asylum seekers only get ?40 a week whist they cannot work. How do they pay their electricity, gas, water, food, transport, clothing, mobile phone bill, local 'weed' dealer, 40 fags a day habit, and prostitutes, (whist visiting nightclubs at weekends) on ?40 per week?
BNP style supporters think it's the end of traditional British society. The government says there's no problem. The fact on the street is that both are lying. The facts on the street say that life is easier -in the UK- if you're an unemployed asylum seeker, than an unemployed British citizen.
Who's going to publish the real facts for people to see, if they're afraid of being labelled 'racist'? It's no wonder finding official proof is so hard to do.
Living in the UK supposed to be the first step up the ladder to a better life for these people. What's happening on a regular basis is that while the traditional British families are climing up those same steps to a better existance, the asylum seekers are taking the elevator.
