Home Office response to our asylum story
– Home Office"All claims for asylum are considered carefully. In fact fewer claims from women are refused at the first stage than those of men.
Where we and the courts find that an individual has no need of our protection we expect them to return home - no failed asylum seeker would face destitution if they comply with our laws."
