Human Events: UK approves record number of asylum seekers claiming to face LGBTQIA+ persecution in their home countries
The UK has seen a significant increase in asylum seekers granted permission to stay based on claims of persecution due to sexual orientation, with 2,133 approvals in 2023 compared to 762 in 2022. Concerns have been raised about the legitimacy of some claims, particularly following high-profile cases.
While the Home Office asserts a commitment to thorough processing of asylum claims, critics argue that the system may be too lenient. The rise in applications is largely attributed to the clearing of a Covid backlog, with the majority of successful claims coming from Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nigeria.
