"https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67567401 Tell me again that we don't have a problem with GENUINE asylum claims. " I give up . People will only change their narrative when enough of them do something extremely bad. | |||

"We have a problem that discontinued claims aren't followed up. Strictly speaking these are no longer asylum seekers but illegal immigrants It does appear that people are exploiting out ineptitude especially given this is a huge increase from last year's numbers. The question for me is how do we manage this issue without throwing the baby out and dismissing all genuine claims.

"They probably spent a few weeks here and thought “fuck it I was told the streets are paved with Gold, I’m off!”" Sounds like you agree they've come here for 'streets of gold' rather than 'safety'. | |||

We are told the vast majority of asylum claims in this country are genuine. When we have over 17k 'missing' it would appear that is not true. | |||

I have never said otherwise. Some will have. Some will be seeking safety. There will be multiple permutations of needs. Some will be legit other not legit. | |||

There were 166k outstanding at end 2022. And 93k new apps this year. So less than 17k is less than 7pc. 75pc of initial decisions were approvals. Over 50pc of appeals were allowed. I can't find success rates yet. But I'd guess we are at over 80pc approvals in total. How big is "vast majority" And those rejected may be ones who feel they have a case but we disagree. Rather than attempting to game the system as is often presented. Now... There is timing differences in these numbers. I suspect the mix of 2021 differs to 2022 differs to 2023. Approvals lag applications. I suspect may of the 17k come from the 93k of class of 2023. And a large chunk are Albanian men, which I would also suspect have lower success rates (Indeed do from latest stats) However.... We need better MI etc to make definite statements. The huge lag makes it difficult to have a conversation. After all, the 17k is withdrawal of apps. It's not the number we have lost track of. If a load are Albanian, and irrc we now have a arrangement with Albania, then could they be part of this. Indeed "In the year ending September 2023, there were 17,301 voluntary returns, an increase of 74% compared with the year ending September 2022 (9,921). Two-thirds (64%) of voluntary returns are other verified returns and were primarily Albanian, Indian and Chinese nationals." I wonder if this form parts of the number? | |||

If you add voluntary returns or forced returns were talking about 35,000 in one year who weren't really here 'seeking safety'. | |||
