George Bunn – GB News Feb 4, 2025
Councils across Britain have spent £141million of taxpayers’ money since 2022 providing asylum seekers with PlayStations, DJ lessons and football match tickets, an investigation has revealed.
An audit by The Telegraph of 110 local authorities found newcomers in hotels were given game consoles and yoga classes paid for by the public purse.
Funding was also used to provide driving lessons, stadium tours and instruction in “circus skills” for refugees and asylum seekers.
The spending comes as many councils face severe budget pressures, with several proposing maximum council tax increases for next year.
The initiatives were funded through Home Office grants despite growing strain on public finances and a sharp rise in migrants being housed in hotels since Labour took power in July.
West Sussex Council spent £334 on PlayStation consoles and games for migrants in hotel accommodation, plus £496 for yoga sessions. Croydon council allocated £317,224 for extra services, including £6,900 for DJ skills training sessions.
The Labour-led Cardiff council provided circus skills and Tai Chi classes using Government funding. Bristol Council, which faces £53million in required savings, spent £270,389 of Home Office grants taking migrants to football matches.
Denbighshire council in Wales paid £550 for asylum seekers to tour Liverpool’s Anfield stadium. Several councils funded driving lessons, with Staffordshire County Council spending £18,000 on theory sessions and Bracknell Forest providing £300 worth of practical lessons for Afghan refugees.
Reform UK MP Rupert Lowe branded the spending a “disgrace” and called for an urgent review of the system.
“It is pure insanity. What message does this send to the millions looking to make the journey?” he told The Telegraph.
“No computer games, driving lessons, phones, laptops or whatever else. They should receive a one-way plane ticket,” he added.
He described the expenditure as “simply staggering” and questioned how it could be justified when the public is being asked to pay more.
William Yarwood from the TaxPayers’ Alliance said “taxpayers will be furious that councils seem more interested in buying PlayStations for asylum seekers than fixing potholes”.
“While Brits put up with crumbling roads and declining public services, they have every right to ask where their council’s priorities really lie,” he added.
The Home Office spent £5.4billion on settling new arrivals in 2023/24, a 38 per cent increase from the previous year. More than 20,000 people have arrived in small boats since Labour scrapped the Rwanda deportation scheme, adding to housing costs.
A record 52,739 people were granted asylum in the UK in the year to September 2024. The backlog of asylum claims fell 22 per cent to 97,170 cases, though appeals against rejections increased fourfold.
Migrants can receive £49.18 weekly support and accommodation while appealing decisions.
Over 150,000 people have arrived illegally on small boats since 2018, with new arrivals housed in taxpayer-funded hotels.
Net migration reached 728,000 in 2024, following 2023’s record-breaking influx of 906,000.
The Office of Budget Responsibility found low-skilled migrants remain a lifelong burden on public finances, taking out more than they contribute.

here in the midlands they also get free english lessons gymn member ships TV licences
dental care driving lessons and being proposed is brothel tokens and extra clothing allowances
we get none of this and it breaches all laws on racial discrimination
they should teach the migrant hordes that our children are not there to be serially raped and in some cases murdered
The bigger question is ‘who is implementing all of this? Sure, we know Mr Kikel is behind it all, but 99% of those working within this system, of national suicide, are nationals. Limp wristed liberal hippies and self loathing Europeans, who’ve spent their lives gorging on ‘hate whitey’ propaganda gladly welcome all the brown skins into their lands, who will subsequently go on to rob, beat, rape and murder them. The disease of liberalism and Christian universalism, nothing more than the cult of the hippy is what’s wrong with the United Kingdom. Eastern Europe has woken up. They lived under the tyranny of the Jew and can clearly read the signs of Jewish communism at play in the UK & US, France, Sweden, the Netherlands and Germany. They’re trying to warn us, but it’s falling on deaf ears.
They’re all going to just have to learn the hard way and at a very, heavy cost to their nation and civilization.

Looks like Starmer plans to kill off the sick and disabled to make savings to finance his treason, and with so many who will die he’ll clear up some housing stock to put them in instead of building houses which would drive house prices down. He doesn’t want that because wealthy homeowners sure don’t want that.
Maybe having foreigners in every backstreet who don’t have the grace to learn our language will gain public support for our weakest against all government cruelty? Little else has, it’s why they can do it.
Conclusion….overthrow the DEMON,crypto jew and homosexual STARMER and start again.
The performance of the King of Sweden shows conclusively that at the very least their monarchy needs overhauling!
It may come as a surprise to these befuddled imbeciles that the only thing big government is concerned with is expansion…it doesn’t give a fuck about tax slaves in as much as they are only important in proportion to the amount of fiat shekels it can wring out of the chumps…and how much torture they are willing to endure…
The More rubber ringers you can shoe horn into the pirate rock gulag..the greater govern-mente reach will be and the more slush and churn to dip your bread into.. that’s how the apparatchiks are rewarded…insider dealing, stock options and of course running government ‘schemes’…because of course they are all scheming bastards…
on the take..
For the occupational kritarchy, it’s myriad institutions and central bankers..there are even more esoteric benefits to reaped… in lawfare and legalisms…
because since the daze of the demented poofter Blair and his jewe immigration czar Babsy Roach (Roche).. they’ve pocketed over a hundred and seventy billion in net costs for gimme grants, which of course is their rather conservative estimate and obviously much much higher…
because of course ‘die-versity’ is their strength… at cost to you.. so hurry up and do so..
Cloward Piven strategy in action. The welfare state is doomed.
Now you know why its called ZWOG.
As I’ve explained before, ‘ZOG’ is outdated, passe & one dimensional, which no longer reflects the current sociobiological situation of the West & the world. The new improved term is ZWOG–the Jew (Zionist) & wog union/alliance (viz. ZWOG) governing/controlling the world & their joint operation to supplant & eliminate the white race/civilization via immigration, murders, brainwashing, wars & miscegenation. Now you know, thanks to me of course.
