Helping migrants in the UK is a form of overseas aidJUNE 7, 2021 35 COMMENTSThe UK has welcomed a large number of migrants in recent years. When considering our overseas aid budget, people should also put into the balance the large numbers of people from dangerous and low income countries we help by supporting them on arrival and then granting them rights to stay and to work. I have always thought the costs of housing and setting up the facilities for migrants should be properly attributed to the overseas aid budget. The international definition of official development assistance allows a country to include some money spent in the donor country helping people from a recipient country.The EU once estimated that a migrant into the EU received the equivalent of 250,000 Euros in capital as they received a home, access to health care, education, transport and all the other public services provided free at the point of use for them or subsidised. There is no reason to suppose the UK current offer is below this indicative figure. Many migrants are housed in London and other locations where housing is dear. Whilst establishing their right to remain and to work the migrant receives board as well as lodging from the state. Once in work they receive top up benefits if their employment is at least in the first instance lower paid.Given the number of people coming to the UK as refugees or migrants to live and work, there is a direct cash cost on the state to provide many more social homes, and additional school places and healthcare capacity.....

Very true scruff. If the government's sole purpose was to smash British business to pieces it could hardly have done a better job. Perhaps that was its sole purpose.

The only thing Ollie Robinson did wrong was to apologize. He and others like him should realize that no apology will ever satisfy the dangerous fanatics who are making such a meal of this.

You must understand these celebrities would likely get stabbed by a BLM in the street if they don't take a knee, they don't care about George Floyd, BLM people are thugs who would stab/shoot you if you disagree and go after your family, it's violence that works in the UK now, admit it we are all scared of the BLM people, especially Jewish people.

The outcome was not relevant. The point is that virtue was signalled.

Not sure of the relevance of who brought in what law. If its a bad law or just out of date then if its statute its changed by parliament, if its common law or precedent its changed when its challenged by some idiot. Its actually against the law to push a pram on a pavement or not to practice archery on a Sunday afternnoon - but you would be wasting your time a money to challenge them

Talking of migrants...would be interesting to know how many are actually intercepted at their source Countries or along the way journey...it seems they are always intercepted at UK waters...do they just fall out of the sky and land on UK waters?...
