UK spends $749,250 of taxpayer money to give Muslim migrants free legal advice

Dec 18, 2016 10:44 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

More than £600,000 (749,250 USD) of taxpayers’ money in the UK is being spent every week so lawyers can give free legal advice to asylum seekers — to help them stay in Britain. A significant portion of those asylum seekers are, of course, Muslim migrants.

Meantime, asylum seekers are getting away with disgusting assaults and crimes, and it isn’t just the British taxpayers who are paying for them: it was reported that a Muslim migrant with four wives and 23 children in Germany claimed $389,000 a year in benefits.

“More than £600,000 of taxpayers’ money is being spent every week so lawyers can give free legal advice to asylum seekers, figures show”, by Matt Dathan, UK Mail, December 15, 2016:

More than £600,000 of taxpayers’ money is being spent every week so lawyers can give free legal advice to asylum seekers – up almost nine per cent in a year.

A total 38,005 cases were approved for free legal advice over the last financial year, often in cases where the applicant is seeking to fight a decision where their asylum claim has already been rejected.

The cases, which cost the taxpayer an average of almost £900 each, have increased since 2013 as an increasing number of migrants fight for asylum status.

An astonishing £8.2million was spent on legal advice in a total of almost 10,000 cases between April and June this year.

The cost of those cases is 22 per cent higher than the corresponding figure two years earlier.

These cash payouts go to lawyers who are paid to help immigrants prepare their official asylum claim cases.

Solicitors can also be paid under the scheme to make an application for an asylum seeker to be released from custody if they are being held in a detention centre while the process is going on.

Lawyers can also be called on to represent asylum seekers at a tribunal hearing if they appeal an initial decision not to allow them to stay in the country….

    I wonder if Britons are OK with their hard-earned tax-money being spent like this?…

      No, we certainly are NOT. Nor are we happy with the amount of muzzrats that have infiltrated our once civilised green and pleasant land!

    No we are far from happy about this or the level of Muslim immigration into Britain. ALL Muslim immigration needs to be halted & an investigation of those already here needs to take place with those here illegally being deported forthwith.
    Forget free legal advice from bent solicitors facilitating fraudulent applications from those who have no legitimate right to be here.
    We need to leave the EU NOW and remove ourselves from the European human rights legislation ECHR.
    Then start at Scotland and work down rooting out illegals and removing them. Any that have destroyed their documents in an effort to stay should be held indefinitely on one of the northern Scottish islands with minimal facilities until they decide they would rather be returned to nation of origin. Any nation refusing to accept the return of their citizens should have all aid payments stopped, and those receiving aid yet failing to prevent their citizens entering Britain illegally should also have payments dtopped.

    The ONLY refugees from the middle east allowed into Britain should be Christians fleeing Muslim persecution, Christians have a shared culture which makes them more easily and completely integrated into British society than ANY Muslim.

    It is time to stop the whining liberal PC drivel that has allowed the infestation of western nations to take place, and it is time for large boots to stamp out the problem

      ROGER THAT!

      You have the classic “appeasers” in power now.

      Get you a brave new Churchill or Thatcher–they will clean the rats out double quick!

    Note the V for victory being waved by those pieces of shit.

    Winston Churchill used the Victory V as an encouragement to his people to stay strong and in the fight against Nazi tyranny. He was a great man and a great war leader.

    Think about it Britons…

      He also had some fairly trenchant views on Mohammedans.

    Western governments have to create protocols to completely DEPROGRAM MUSLIMS RIGHT OUT OF ISLAM.

    At this point, even if Britain were to declare and officially legislate that muslims are immune from any type of legal prosecution, regardless of the charge, I would not be surprised. UK is simply too far gone.

      Well, they are more or less a protected species here.

        Yes, The situation has become unbelievable -but few people dare protest or are even bothered. Someone can be as rude as they like about the Queen or the Church of England, but being rude to a Moslem is a punishable crime.

    More than £600,000 of taxpayers’ money weekly is STOLEN from its rightful owners – native Brits. The money belongs to the thousands of desperate, jobless, homeless British vets who live on the streets DENIED HELP because they’re non-Muslim white.

    With All that benefit money going to massive numbers of Muslims, many native British pensioners must choose whether to buy food or pay for heating in the winter. Many die in the winter.
