Germany loses the top spot for EU country with the most asylum requests.
Germany is no longer the country where the most people apply for asylum in the European Union, fresh data released by the European Union Agency for Asylum (EUAA) on Monday shows.
France and Spain received more asylum applications in the first half of 2025 than Germany, with more Venezuelan and fewer Syrian applications partly responsible.

Liverpool Echo actually bothers to try and speak to some of those trapped in the "asylum hotels" and otherwise affected by the utter bullshit which is our asylum and immigration policies.

ICE sends Russian asylum seekers, including, for instance, army deserters who don’t want to fight Ukraine, back to Moscow
Here is yet another #asylum-seeker who was granted legal authorization to be in the United States, but the #ICEGestapo showed up to the courthouse and dragged him away. This is the land of the free..? Fuck this. Right-wingers hate America and want us living in a fascist shithole.
Just when you thought that Reform could not get more dangerous….
Aseem Malhotra, a British cardiologist who claims that mRNA Covid vaccines did more harm than good, will speak from the main stage at Reform UK’s conference in Birmingham this weekend.
He will give the only health-related address on the main stage. Andrew Wakefield was not available.
Truly, the self harming lunatics are getting control over the asylum.

"Migrant crisis: How Europe went from Merkel's 'We can do it' 10 years ago to pulling up the drawbridge"
You might think that the article would mention Russian influence: Troll farms, funding for Farage, Le Pen, etc. and all the other stuff they do to try to destabilise Europe.
But no, not a single mention of any of that, because it's the BBC. It's all about how terribly concerned everyone is about all these foreigners.

Cooper’s U-turn on refugee family reunions is already drawing criticism.
The Home Secretary is now applying rules she condemned in Opposition, leaving children and families at risk.
What does this say about Labour’s approach to asylum?

Yvette Cooper (aka Mrs Balls!) once warned Parliament that halting safe refugee family routes would push children into smugglers’ hands.
Now she’s doing it — and critics say the cracks in her asylum policy are showing.

Showing you, once again, that this administration never cared about the legality of immigration, only that it happens, here is a man from #WesternSahara who was picked up by the #ICEGestapo right after a judge granted him #asylum. The Nazis in charge don't want brown people here.
The most shocking thing for me in Starmer's interview was when he unhesitatingly and unambiguously said that he would be unhappy and wouldn't feel safe if he had an asylum hotel on his street.
How TF did we get to a place where a Labour Prime Minister is promoting the narrative that all asylum seekers are dangerous criminals?
I know I've said it before, but I think it bears repeating: we could all reliably get same day GP appointments and see hospital consultants within a week by now if the government had put half as much energy into fixing the NHS as they spend being mean to foreigners
“Scapegoating vulnerable people has always been a deliberate ploy by the government to distract from its own domestic failures.
Today, it might be #asylum seekers.
Tomorrow, it could be #disabled people.
The next day, #trans people.
Whatever the minority, we are witnessing the demonisation of vulnerable people, to the grave detriment of us all.”
#Starmer’s #Labour government has laid itself wide open to these criticisms by #Corbyn.
Because it has turned against each of these groups.
"Labour Is Paving the Path to Fascism"
Corbyn may have his faults, but he is absolutely spot on in this article.
