Asylum seekers continue to be stigmatised by the British press – The Guardian
“‘Soft-touch Britain: the asylum capital of Europe’; ‘Refugees made our lives hell too, say neighbours’; and “DNA test for bogus refugees scrapped as expensive flop”. All are headlines that have appeared recently in the UK press, despite it now being almost a decade since the Press Complaints Commission first heard from charities on why coverage like this should stop. And despite it now being almost a decade since the PCC issued guidance to address what it agreed was widespread inaccurate reporting.”
