YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Asylum seekers in the UK are going without food as the government cuts off their weekly allowance for necessities.

A prepaid bank card, meant to be loaded with £39 per week, has been replaced by a new card. However, some say these either haven't arrived, don't work, or don't have any money on them.
