00:00Fake asylum seekers are reportedly going back home for their holidays.

00:05Asylum accommodation whistleblowers have revealed that three teenage asylum seekers from Iran

00:10who claimed that they had to flee because of persecution went back home to see their family

00:16and even did a spot of water sports while they were there.

00:20They also wanted to go back home to celebrate Eid.

00:23Well, I mean, you don't have to go anywhere for that, do you?

00:26They could just do it at Bradford Mosque.

00:30Eid al-Fitr is a celebration that comes at the end of the month of Ramadan

00:35and it's known as breaking of the fast.

00:38And this year, the Bradford Central Mosque are hosting something really special.

00:43Or turned on BBC One and they would have live-streamed the whole thing for you.

00:47They could also have just made their way to the capital.

00:50It is wonderful to be in Travago Square celebrating Eid on the square,

00:54celebrating Eid al-Fitr with so many thousands of people.

00:58The wonderful thing about London is we celebrate our diversity.

01:02We see diversity as a strength, not a weakness.

01:05Gosh, if he gave Sadiq Khan a pound for every time he said that diversity is our strength,

01:10I wonder how rich he'd be.

01:12But anyway, the whistleblower is a man called Darren Jennings,

01:16who worked for an asylum accommodation company.

01:18Now, he claims that one Iranian man went home for a whole two months.

01:25Then another asylum seeker told him that he planned to go back to Iran,

01:30having heard about the first chap.

01:31The whole thing was allegedly being funded by another asylum seeker in Britain.

01:36I mean, the killer quote from Mr Jennings is this.

01:39If you're saying that you've left the country because it's unsafe

01:42and then you're choosing to travel back there, it doesn't make sense.

01:46Well, I do hate to disagree with Mr Jennings here,

01:50but I think it actually makes perfect sense.

01:52It makes perfect sense if you are willing to take the view

01:55that Britain is being invaded by a significant number of totally fake asylum seekers

02:00who make up false claims to come to Britain for the free housing,

02:04free health care, free education, free mobile phones,

02:07in some cases, free driving lessons.

02:09In fact, really, it's free everything, isn't it?

02:12And this is not an isolated incident.

02:15Two years ago, Border Force revealed that asylum seekers

02:18were caught at an airport going home for Christmas.

02:22The quote from a Border Force official was,

02:24we do find a lot of people who've claimed asylum in this country

02:26and are heading back to their own country for holidays,

02:30which obviously isn't allowed.

02:31Well, I think we should allow it.

02:34We just shouldn't allow them to come back again.

02:35So when people shout, go back to where you came from, to an asylum seeker,

02:40they're often called racist.

02:42But it turns out that some asylum seekers probably just think you're a travel agent.

02:45This is happening everywhere.

02:48Afghan asylum seekers in Germany were going on secret holidays

02:51back to the Taliban-run nation.

02:54Germany wants to strip them of their asylum status.

02:57In Sweden, they are stripping asylum seekers of their status

03:01if they holiday back home.

03:02But what do we think will happen here in Britain?

03:06Probably nothing.

03:08As has been pointed out, the Home Secretary does have the power to do this

03:12through the Nationality and Borders Act of 2022.

03:15So why aren't they doing it?

03:17This is a massive slap in the face to you, me, everyone we know.

03:21British taxpayers, you pay for these fake asylum seekers

03:24to live the life of Riley while your cost of living goes through the roof.

03:28And then it turns out some of them have been going home for a jolly up.

03:32All along.
