| Nine asylum seekers a week are found to be lying about being children in desperate bids to stay in Britain |
| 2018-09-11 |
| [DailyMail] Over the past three years three out of five asylum seekers whose age was checked after they claimed to be under 18 were found to be adults. The Home Office statistics revealed 2,336 cases where the claims to be a child were disputed and then checked. Of these, 1,403 turned out to be over 18. More than seven out of ten unaccompanied Vietnamese child asylum seekers whose ages were investigated – around 100 in all – were actually adults. A similar percentage of child claimants from Iran and Iraq whose cases were checked were also discovered to be adults. |

| #2 I love how the lead with the Vietnamese before admitting "a similar percentage" of Muslims are pulling the same stunt. I suspect the percentage is similar but the numbers are much, much different. |
