One of those leading the anti refugee protest at the Rugby East Ibis hotel in Crick last Friday was Andrew Smith. He was jailed in 2017 for two sickening attacks on his girlfriend. Utter hypocrisy that he claims to be protecting women and girls.

📍 Free driving lessons from several councils📍 I’ve covered this one before!👇🏼 x.com/monkemma/statu… TL:DR - almost exclusively unaccompanied asylum seeking children in care who get treated the same as British children in care. 12/

📍 Free sports and leisure tickets/trips📍 I couldn’t find anything beyond what was in the Daily Mail article. And yes, I’m sure that Bristol council have provided a grant to an organisation that has, at some point, taken some asylum seekers to see a Bristol Roberts game.🤷🏼‍♀️ Or

📍 Free PlayStation consoles and yoga sessions 📍 Yup, this was a Telegraph scoop in 2022! They “revealed” that from West Sussex council’s annual £2.2BILLION budget, they spent a whopping £334 on PlayStations (that’s one console!) and £496 on yoga sessions. Seriously 🙄 14/

📍 Free swimming, group exercise classes, and gym sessions📍 & 📍discounts on theatre shows📍 I’ve put these together as they’re basically the Richmond Card again. But this time in Bradford. It’s a discount card available to students, pensioners, anyone on any benefits, ……

📍 Home Office 'clothing packs' on arrival📍 Another Telegraph scoop following an FOI request. Basically, when someone washes up on our shores soaked to the bone and splashed with petrol, they are taken to a warehouse and given one complete dry set of clothes and a pack of

📍Free mobile phone on arrival📍 The home office gives anyone without a phone a basic brick phone to ensure they can stay in contact. This isn’t a regular thing. 17/

📍 Taxpayer-funded legal aid for asylum cases📍 Yes, legal aid covers the fees of the lawyers who deal with the asylum seekers’ claims. I say “covers” - legal aid doesn’t come close to covering the costs of those lawyers. But thank goodness we have lawyers who are prepared to

You’ve seen what happens: Right wing journalists trawl council budgets and fire off FOIs to find something, anything, that looks like money being spent on, or for the benefit of anyone who might possibly be an asylum seeker. The purchase of a single PlayStation becomes an

The Daily Mail has then pulled all of these confected outrage stories together into one piece on the “perks” of being an asylum seeker (No, no one is crossing a continent and at least one sea for discounted cinema tickets and the chance of a free cookery lesson🙄) The Tory

Yes, the State has a responsibility not to let asylum seekers starve, and live on the streets in destitution. Yes, asylum seekers are given support with healthcare if needed, as are British people on low incomes, and some essential travel Yes, some councils chose to support

The inhumanity of those on the Right who are horrified by the fact that our government won’t let other human beings starve, is beyond me. The Telegraph journalists and RW politicians pointing and jeering at orphaned children having access to a nice day out occasionally, and

Working class wide boy Thomas Skinner isn’t really a geezer who pulled himself up from the hood and done well . He went to a £29k a year private school and grew up in a £2.5 million house!!! Don’t judge a book by its cover!!! Bosh❤️!!!

The man wasn’t arrested. At least not in the video. If the woman didn’t charge the immigrant that walked into her house maybe he had a voucher. But just keep on peddling lies and hatred you clowns

Rupert Lowe starting a new week with more proof his lack of humanity is only bettered by his love a good bit of race baiting. What a cunt.

Unemployed people and domestic abusers?

This little prick is destroying people’s lives with deliberate disinformation. What’s the message? Black = foreign. Foreign = asylum seeker. Asylum seeker = enemy. Ergo, all black people are seen as a threat to white children. I hope they sue the shit out of the fucking hobbit.
