"British Red Cross officials are creating an 'induction tour' of London for destitute people to help homeless asylum seekers fend for themselves. Claimants who say they are unable to claim state assistance are being given trips to soup kitchens and night shelters to stop them starving or becoming victims of crime on the streets. The Red Cross has also prepared a booklet showing them how they might live on their wits.
The organisation estimates there are 33,600 destitute asylum seekers in England, a steep increase from the figure of 25,000 last year."
