I've now read up more on this case and it seems there is a reason why they decided to leave Canada - they would not get citizenship there because it is apparently Canadian common practice not to give it to ex-KGB officers. If I was in this position I'd certainly move to another country - UK is perfect from this point of view.Comment

And the system will run much better if we believe everything they say and assume they would not be a potential problem living in the UK. Let them all stay I say.
Spain tried an amnesty for illegals and regretted it, resulted in even more trying to get in...Comment

Still doesn't explain how Somalis, Afghans and Iraqis can claim asylum in UK since they are obliged under the rules of political asylum to claim it in the first safe country the land in.
Now as these citizens need a visa to land here by air, which they won't get, they must come by truck, and pass through God knows how many safe countries. So to me it's logical the UK should have very few asylum claims.Comment

Whether UK is the first country they landed or not is secondary consideration - you should also consider that asylum applications can be made in embassies, you don't need to travel.Comment
