A WAITING GAME
Applying for asylum is a waiting game, and many refugees who arrive in the UK live in uncertainty for years.
For instance, one Ethiopian asylum seeker, known only as Abiwot, told CNA that although his asylum claim was recently approved, he is unable to find a job until he receives an identity card.
He currently lives off a government handout.
Abiwot had fled civil war in his home country back in 2021, making his way to France before travelling by a small boat to the UK.
“I get like £48 (US$61.53) to £49 weekly. I just prepare myself, I just cook myself and I serve out my life. That’s good, but it’s really boring, because you always sit, you are not allowed to work, you cannot go anywhere,” he told CNA.
“But it’s fine. I don’t blame this government, because so many asylums are coming, I know.”
