      A lot of these “asylum seekers” are actually just trying to game the system. Doesn’t help that you need a £40k job to work in the UK, but still

        Instead of repeating the enormous gas bag that is Nigel Garage, perhaps you would actually like to provide some evidence that that is the case.

          Given that there are asylum seekers who pretend to convert to another religion to try and get asylum, is it really that much a stretch to suggest that some others will try to game the system in another way?

          I know this is Lemmy and we’re all supposed to pretend that every asylum seeker is a good and honest person, but that’s not how reality works.

            Sure people will try and game the system, does that mean everybody is and we should fuck then all over?

            Based on this thread can I make the connection that everybody here is a fucking idiot, or do I just assume you and the other dude are the idiots here because that’s all we have evidence of.

            My fellow brits are known for being beer louts around Europe, does that mean all of Britain is that way? Of course it doesn’t.

            Your justification for your hard right extremist attitude notwithstanding I noticed you have not actually provided evidence. I find this highly suspicious of your personal belief system. Your personal belief system being one that has a tendency to make people pariah’s without much in the way of logic or discourse.

            So I again ask for you to provide some evidence.

            I interestingly note that since you weren’t the person who originally made the comment you have waded into this argument with an uninformed and quite frankly abhorrent opinion without any defense.

              Do you remember that guy who committed an acid attack in London and then killed himself? He faked a conversion to Christianity so he could get asylum.

              Do you remember the Liverpool Women’s Hospital bomber a while ago? He also faked a conversion to Christianity so he could be granted asylum.

              Both of these were refused asylum before. Why do you think they suddenly found a love of Jesus?

          Most asylum seekers aren’t accepted based on their sexuality, so over half lie about it

            This is just a circle. “The judge is probably right, because he’s probably right”. Using this case as evidence that this case is something that happens frequently, inspite of the judge not using evidence, but his gut. Evidence he was faking would be a video of him kissing a woman at a football game. Not, he hasn’t documented his gayness enough, but also he has to show shame over it at the same time. Too much shame? Somehow evidence he’s not gay, like in this case. To little shame? According to this article it is used to prove they aren’t because real gay people need shame. The evidence is never “hey look, he’s having sex with women, and refusing all these perfectly good men”.

                Do people in your family actually have positive feelings about you or are they kind of embarrassed every time you walk in the room?

                The judge already fucked him, and he didn’t like it. That’s the missing evidence, guys! Case closed!
