Petition Stop financial and other support for asylum seekers
This petition is to advocate a cessation of financial and other support provided to asylum seekers by the Government. This support currently includes shelter, food, medical care (including optical and dental), and cash support.
More details
I believe that such provisions may inadvertently incentivise illegal migration, particularly via the English Channel.
This petition is to urge the Government to discontinue these support measures and payments.
