This is utter madness, data I have just pulled out from the DWP. £726,000,000 was spent on refugee households claiming Universal Credit in 2023.

For 2024? It's soared to £1,103,000,000. That's 1.8% of the total amount of Universal Credit, 'paid to households where at least one claimant’s HRT concluded they held refugee status'.

The British people are being scammed.

Not a penny should be spent on benefits for anyone arriving in our country illegally.

I'm very much of the view that anyone breaking into our country should be deported.

Claire became a Samaritans volunteer four and a half years ago after receiving support during a tough time. They know how powerful a simple conversation can be and always looks out for people who might need someone to talk to.

One moment stands out to them. 🧵

Today is Time to Talk Day, a day when we appreciate the power of a simple conversation and recognise the positive impact it can have on mental health. Visit the Time to Talk website for great resources and activities to get people talking - we especially love the origami conversation starter! And if you love to chat and want to get involved in a befriending project, check out our directory to find a project near you. ✨ https://t.co/Jiz5OWW7H8

So much useful discussion at our volunteer training this week with @KingsLynnSams who talked to us about active listening.
Listening to our clients is at the heart of what we do. Thank you KL Samaritans for sharing your knowledge with us 💚
