🚨🇬🇧UK SPENDS £141M ON MIGRANT SERVICES FROM TAXPAYERS' MONEY: FROM PLAYSTATIONS TO DJ LESSONS
UK local councils have reportedly provided PlayStations, yoga, circus skills, driving, and DJ lessons, sparking a debate about the appropriate use of taxpayer money.
This expenditure reflects broader pressures on local councils, with the Local Government Association noting a near doubling of spending on unaccompanied asylum-seeking children to £152.4 million in 2017-18.
Initiatives like the £19 million Controlling Migration Fund in 2018 aimed at integration show government support for these efforts.
This comes as the UK increasingly uses its aid budget domestically, with £4.3 billion spent on refugee costs in 2023, highlighting the complex balance between integration, humanitarian support, and fiscal accountability.
