| From the New Statesman: the UK has a very low number of asylum applicants per 100,000 people (8.4 in 2021, compared to Germany's 22.9 or France's 17.8). This current 'crisis' is manufactured by the inept leadership that, somehow, we seem to be continuing to reward with more time in power. https://www.newstatesman.com/chart-of-the-day/2022/11/uk-number-asylum-seekers-rates-europe |
