lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, asylum has got far less to do with shielding people from persecution, and much more to do with serving as a pretext for facilitating immigration. The political class knows that there is opposition to mass immigration, so they present asylum as a system over which they have no control. If applicants are not detained or allowed to seek work, they will also need housing. Jobs and houses are in short supply, so they will be employed or housed at the expense of the home populations. Perhaps complicit MEPs should open their homes to these applicants and fund them from their salaries, rather than letting the poor and dispossessed bear the burden. Of course if asylum is refused, the applicant will be given a piece of paper asking them to leave, but there will be no coercion. They can also use the legal system to frustrate removal. An Iranian asylum seeker, Mr Rostami, came to Britain in 2001 and was refused asylum in 2002. He is still in Britain after several appeals, a prison sentence and a deportation order."@en1
