    Three quarters of all the money spent on asylum accommodation currently goes on hotels, despite them only accounting for around a third of all the asylum seekers being housed. The NAO says that private providers who sign deals with the government may profit more from hotels than other types of accommodation.
    In 2019, Conservative ministers signed seven regional contracts with three companies - Serco, Mears and Clearsprings - to help house asylum seekers.

    The NAO says the three companies made a combined profit of £383m on asylum accommodation contracts between September 2019 and August 2024. A large part of the extra costs is accounted for by Clearsprings' contract in the south of England, which has risen from £0.7bn to an expected £7bn.

    Clearsprings' founder and director, Graham King, has previously donated to the Conservative Party, through other companies he has owned.

    That's all they get, the rest as I said, goes to third parties who are raking in cash.

    In the year ending June 2025, the top countries of origin for UK asylum claims were Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Eritrea, and Bangladesh.


    There are over 250 million Pakistanis , they are not at war & lefties think it's our duty to take them all in because they are poor.

    Their benefits are paid to their landlords, caterers and various other recipients. You have a really warped view of what counts as a benefit.

    It's actually cheaper to put illegal migrants in hotels & give them free everything, than not letting them into the country.

    We're actually saving money buy bringing thousands more in a week

    Tax avoidance isn't a crime. Evasion is.

    That's a lot of billions.

    Whichever way you look at it, illegal migrants cost us a huge amount of money.

    And who's pocketing the vast majority of the money? It's not the migrants, it's the pals/contacts of successive governments who are making a killing. That's what should be causing outrage.
