EXC: London Borough Offering £100 Discount on School Uniforms Only to Asylum Seekers

Guido revealed this morning that Wandsworth Borough Council is now offering 50% off e-bike rentals to asylum seekers. They’re not the only council offering asylum seekers freebies…

Labour-run Lambeth Council is also dishing out perks. Their own website bluntly states they “do not offer financial help for school uniforms”. Unless, of course, you’re an asylum seeker. Since 2023, the council has handed out £100 per child to asylum-seeking families for school uniforms and supplies. Tough luck for other struggling families…

Lambeth also covers the £15-£20 cost of an Oyster Photocard – but only for asylum seekers. William Yarwood of the TaxPayers’ Alliance – who spotted the freebie – told Guido:

“It’s completely unsustainable for so many arms of the state to be giving priority to asylum seekers over British citizens. We increasingly have two-tier services across the board.”

Guido will be exposing more councils offering asylum seekers free stuff in the Asylum Freebiegate files…
