"A senior judge has accused the Home Office of relying on “AI hallucinated” information to refuse an asylum claim. The case relates to a Moroccan woman and her child who fled her country after experiencing forced underage marriage and extreme violence, including rape. The woman claimed asylum on the basis of fears that she would be killed by her husband: a powerful, previously convicted criminal. The Home Office refused her case, citing evidence from a supposedly independent and authoritative document known as a country policy information note (CPIN), which they said confirmed that Morocco would be safe for her. But the document could not be found, although its existence was relied upon by a judge who rejected her appeal against the Home Office’s refusal decision in an immigration court known as the first-tier tribunal." https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/jul/28/home-office-used-ai-hallucinated-information-to-refuse-asylum-claim-judge-suggests #UK #AI #GenerativeAI #Hallucinations #AsylumSeekers #HomeOffice

After terrorizing politicians and asylumseekers since a few years (with heavy fireworks, putting trees on fire, kicking in windows) now the next step is there in the Netherlands : people who show solidarity with asylumseekers are terrorized at their homes. Is it a matter of time before the first wounded or dead ? Is this also happening in other countries ? Is Elon Musk finally happy now ? :blobcathyper: #asylumseekers #netherlands #fascism #racism "Video: Car found in water in Engelen; Police investigating link to anti-asylum vandalism A car was found in the water of the Dieze Canal near Engelen and Bokhoven on Wednesday morning. The police are investigating whether the discovery is connected to the anti-asylum vandalism in the Noord-Brabant villages over the weekend." https://nltimes.nl/2026/07/29/video-car-found-water-engelen-police-investigating-link-anti-asylum-vandalism

The Home Office acted unlawfully when deciding to use a former military training camp in East Sussex to house asylum seekers and made the decision "under conditions of secrecy", the High Court has heard. #asylumseekers #nimbyism #Crowborough

Asylum seekers will be ordered to pay about £10,000 to cover their state-funded living costs or be denied settled status in the UK under a new law to be considered by MPs today. The means-tested scheme, compared by officials to student loans and included in the immigration and asylum bill, has been condemned by charities for placing a tax on refugees fleeing war, torture and famine. We can't have this! #asylumseekers #Mahmood
