Thousands of migrants could be granted asylum in the UK as the Government pushes to clear a huge backlog of applications. The Refugee Council estimates the number of pending asylum claims could reach almost 120 thousand by January, following Labour’s decision to scrap the Rwanda plan. New analysis suggests that processing the backlog could see over 62,000 more people recognised as refugees in the UK. It comes as Downing Street says it’s committed to ending the use of asylum hotels, despite reports the Home Office may reopen some that were previously closed. #MigrantCrisis #Asylum #Labour #uknews #GBNews
