'I don't know why we should be giving these people anything,' Reform UK MP Andrew Rosindell told GB News
Britain is thought to have dished out more than 1,000 hijabs to illegal migrants this year alone. Internal Government figures show officials have been handing out 162 Muslim headscarves to so-called "asylum seekers" every month.
Home Office data unearthed by the Mail shows that between January and June, 974 hijabs were given to small boat migrants. If that rate has continued, the total will have almost reached 1,500 by today.
A Home Office source told the newspaper it had a legal duty to provide basic clothing, including cultural and religious items, under the Short-term Holding Facility Rules.
The rules also say that migrants' cultural and religious needs "must be catered for so far as is practicable" when they stay at places like the Manston processing centre in Kent. The source added: "All arrivals receive a basic dry clothing pack where required. The items available form part of standard welfare arrangements."
Reform UK MP Andrew Rosindell told GB News: "I don't know why we should be giving these people anything. "They're coming in illegally, and if they're coming in illegally, we shouldn't be incentivising people by making them feel like they're getting everything given to them on a plate.
"You couldn't make it up. The British state is acting in a way that is encouraging people to come to this country. "Don't they realise that British people have had enough? They don't want all these people coming to this country illegally.
