UKBA staff humiliate and trick asylum seekers - whistleblower

A former UKBA employee has alleged that officials at one of the government's major centres for processing asylum seekers' claims express fiercely anti-immigration views and take pride in refusing applications.

The press reported a shocking story into claims that asylum seekers are mistreated, tricked and humiliated by staff at a UK Border Agency centre in Cardiff. Keith Vaz MP, chairman of the home affairs select committee has called for an investigation into the claims made by a former member of UKBA staff.
