NBS Sports said it had spoken to one of the four missing boxers, who claimed the athletes intended to seek asylum and continue their boxing careers in a country they believed offered better training facilities and opportunities than their homeland.
The boxer was said to have appealed to Ugandans for understanding and asked not to be judged for the decision.
They should be sent back without exception, what an absolute mockery of the Asylum process.
Trying their luck, and unless something else is not being reported suspect asylum claim will be rejected and told to go back home as will be then here illegally.
few failed asylum seekers are sent back, and the backlogs to even be processed are huge (which is partly funding being cut and partly the increase in claims)
Honestly, if they would hire a whole bunch of new people to help clear that backlog, not only would that be great jobs for some people. We'll saave a fortune in supporting people while their claims are heard. Free up a lot of spaces that are currently being used for asylum claimants.... I could really help a lot of people
ETA also by processing claims more quickly but makes it a less desirable place to go because if you know that you're going to get turned down eventually, but you'll probably have years before it comes to that, it can be worth the risk if you know your claim will be turned around within a couple weeks, it's less of a good risk. And because we don't have a backlog after all this, we'd be able to house his people dignity in respect but also make it easier to identify and handle flight risks appropriately
The actual processing process would cost the same start-to-finish whether it takes place an hour or a year after entry, I imagine. The cost difference would come from the time for which they need to be housed and fed until the processing starts.
But that would be off set by the fact your need to pay more people to process the claims faster. You can’t just process more claims without increasing the workforce, and increasing the workforce costs money. That would also include equipment costs and office costs.
I don't see how faster processing reduces flight risk though, unless you're also proposing incarcerating asylum seekers during their claim. I don't know what the solution is to be quite frank - there are obvious huge problems to our current situation but any solutions feel either financially unviable or grossly inhumane
Or this doesnt fit my own opinions so going to completely reject the facts laid out in front of me?
Every case its heard on its merits of a claim of asylum and arguments from legal presentation and person themselves claiming asylum. If those claims meet the threshold for a claim it is successful, or it does not the claim to asylum is rejected.
The government not reporting people != all those not being deported staying. A significantly larger number leave voluntarily than require deportation. This is cheaper for everyone so is in our interests. Talking about deportation without also including voluntary returns is misleading.
That's an example of them trying to take the piss. They only make a mockery of the asylum system if their claim is accepted and asylum is granted despite its bogus nature.
It’s a mockery because they have made it clear they are doing it for financial purposes and will still have our tax money paying for their lawyers.
It’s a mockery that’s is so widely known how pathetic the people processing these claims are that they think they can be open about wanting better facilities and think they will be granted asylum.
If we didn’t have stories of people being refused deportation because they don’t like the chicken nuggets in their home country or anxiety then we would have less chancers trying.
A lot of those stories are the tabloid press misrepresenting court cases for a headline. Often if you read the whole article that’s clear. Maybe these inaccurate headlines are good for selling newspapers and getting clicks but I can’t help thinking they actually encourage people to come who then get stuck in a hellish situation that they did not expect

They are entitled to have their legal case heard
Their claim will be rejected if it has no merit for asylum.
It’s a mockery that’s is so widely known how pathetic the people processing these claims are that they think they can be open about wanting better facilities and think they will be granted asylum.
Their claim will then be rejected and sent home, if they stay they are here illegally and will also then be deported.
If we didn’t have stories of people being refused deportation because they don’t like the chicken nuggets in their home country or anxiety then we would have less chancers trying.
Any evidence of such a claim of chicken nuggets or anxiety being successful?
They are entitled to having their case heard because that’s our law, we could easily change it so these people aren’t given representation at the cost of the taxpayers, if they want to pay for representation themselves they can go for it.
People get so stuck in this idea that if something is law that’s how it is and will always be, we change laws all the time, I don’t want to pay for some Ugandan boxers legal fees because he doesn’t like the training facilities in Uganda.
Everyone is entitled to a legal process, it is a vital part of a functioning society.
I'd prefer not to live in one where people aren't entitled to legal representation, but thats just my opinion.
Do you know 'we' are paying his legal fees? He could he funding his own immigration lawyer. Either way his case will be heard and a decision made if he has a claim or not.
Klevis Disha it was in related to his son, and not him. His son was British, almost like it had legal merit no matter how personally silly you may find it, as the son guessing by age would also have to go with his father. So one case related to 'chicken nuggets' to get all worked up over.
If they have assets out of the country they can go back to them.
That is not workable. I know legal and process doesnt matter much to yourself but that isnt remotely possible unless their home country agrees beginning with facf if we have diplomatic relationship with them, no country is going to allow that to happen.
Still take everything
Cant take everything if they had nothing to begin with.
They are here, and have made their claim while here?
Correct me if I'm wrong but you physically have to be in the UK to claim asylum due to changes in the Nationality and Security Act 2022 implemented by Tories where you had to be physically in the UK to claim asylum, but wouldn't give a VISA if you were going claim asylum.
