Nothing new there. We already knew that it is only immigrants from the EU who benefit our economy. However, international law dictates our duties towards asylum seekers.

Interesting question during PMQs though from Paul Flynn, the Newport MP.
"Cardiff has 700, Newport has 600, Rochdale has 700 but the combined constituencies of the PM, Chancellor and Home Secretary have a grand total of 3. Is this fair and reasonable way to treat asylum seekers?"
The big numbers may be mixed up and the rest is as near as I recall. but it's a revealing stat I think.

But the headline did not say that. Harry says it as it is, dreamboats live in their own little bubble.

Most of those seeking asylum in Britain come from Pakistan, with Eritrea second. I don't think even Tony Blair managed to attack either of those.

That might've changed in the last few years, but for 2011, 2012 and H1
2013, it was Pakistan then Iran then Sri Lanka - with Eritrea last in the top ten.Pakistan was a long way down the list of nationalities granted asylum, though...
Iran - Syria - Eritrea - Sudan.

None of those were attacked by Britain either and conflicts in those weren't supported by Britain either.

OK, 2014 numbers. Like I said - they may have changed between those
