This petition was submitted during the 2015–2017 Conservative government

Petition Stop all Legal Aid to Migrants and Foreigners not born in the UK.

Dealing with foreign criminals in Britain costs the taxpayer up to £1 billion a year, including £81 million in legal aid.
• Measures to keep foreign criminals out of Britain by turning them away at the border – even if they are European Union citizens – are not being used.

More details

Stop foreign serial criminals abusing the British taxpayers by claiming Legal Aid to fight deportation. A good example of this is the story of Aso Mohammed Ibrahim as detailed in the media recently, who ran down a 12 year old girl and left her to "die like a dog". He has now successfully won his case to remain in this country as a failed asylum seeker, all thanks to Legal Aid.
