The government has given nearly 1,000 hijabs to migrants who crossed the Channel in small boats this year, according to reports.
The Mail on Sunday claims internal government documents show officials gave 974 hijabs this year, a religious headdress some Muslim women and girls wear. The hijabs were handed out in clothing packs given to every migrant that reaches the UK via small boats over the Channel, reports suggest.
The Home Office has responded by insisting it has the legal duty to provide them under the government short-term holding facility rules, first established under the Conservative government in 2018, and last amended when Rishi Sunak was Prime Minister.
A spokesperson told the Mail on Sunday: βAll arrivals receive a basic dry clothing pack where required. The items available form part of standard welfare arrangements.β
In total, 15,406 packs have been given to migrants as 19,000 small boat crossings have been attempted so far this year, the report says. The breakdown of the packs reflects the fact the vast majority of small boats migrants are male, as 10,694 clothing packs for men were given out.
Only 2,760 packs were given to women, and 773 to boys and 829 for girls. Another 350 babygrows were also handed out.

I admit I checked to see if this was from Babylon Bee.
It isn’t.

Women were handed hijabs.
Men were given beer, beef jerky, barbecue potato chips and NFL and college football betting odds sheets.
Ha.
Capitalist ingenuity rises again.
The U.K. is importing women so ugly no one wants to see their faces.

Total insanity. England is gone. Maybe Trump should grant asylum to the true British who are left and send them to Minnesota to counter the Somali vote
Anyone that believes that the UK government is not 100% behind the invasion needs their head examined.
Risking their lives to cross the channel because the government handouts are marginally better in Britain than they are in France.
