Human rights chiefs were hit with a furious backlash last night after ruling Britain wasn't generous enough to migrants.The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) watchdog said ministers weren't doing enough to prevent asylum seekers falling into poverty and that more should be given access to benefits to comply with UN standards.It also criticised the government for scrapping a programme designed to help refugees write CVs and find jobs.But the intervention sparked a furious backlash, with critics saying hiking benefits would create an even greater 'pull factor' which could encourage more dangerous small boat crossings.It comes after the Mail revealed how hundreds of migrants at a former RAF base in Wethersfield, Essex, enjoy access to luxury sport facilities, a fully equipped gymnasium, fitness room, full-sized football pitch and recreation rooms with televisions, pool tables and a snack bar.This newspaper also revealed how mobile phones are provided for the 800 inhabitants with generous allowances for free calls, sparking accusations it was more of a 'holiday camp' than migrant holding centre.The Tories' shadow home secretary Chris Philp said: 'The out-of-touch Equality and Human Rights Commission and its ridiculous demands show exactly why we need to strip these bodies of any control over Government policy.'There is not a word from them speaking up for the hardworking British families struggling with their own bills, but these open-borders activists never miss a chance to lobby for more benefits for immigrants. Growing numbers of migrants are making it to the UK on 'mega-dinghies', with 80,000 small boat arrivals since Labour won the 2024 election The Tories' shadow home secretary Chris Philp branded the EHRC 'out-of-touch' and said its ruling shows 'why we need to strip these bodies of any control over Government policy' Alp Mehmet, chairman of Migration Watch UK, said the EHRC had shown 'breathtaking cheek' with its findings 'Our soft welfare offering is undoubtedly a pull factor for immigration, which is why we need to break the incentive. The Conservative Party would restrict benefits to UK citizens.'Tory MP Neil O'Brien added: 'The problem with encouraging more free handouts and benefits for illegal immigrants is that you create a pull factor and encourage even more people to come.'Many are not really refugees but just economic migrants.'Encouraging even more unvetted, illegal migrants to come here poses a serious risk to British people.'Alp Mehmet, chairman of Migration Watch UK, said: 'What breathtaking cheek.'The chair of the EHRC has the effrontery to demand that the British taxpayer dole out more money for migrants for fear of upsetting the UN - a body that now seems utterly divorced from the real world.'The EHRC found Britain has taken 'inconsistent action' – the watchdog's lowest ranking – for failing to uphold the rights of migrants and asylum seekers in line with UN recommendations.It criticised the government for scrapping the Refugee Employability Programme after less than two years.This aimed to help refugees with CV writing and interview skills so they could find work.At the same time, ministers also revoked their legal duty to support asylum seekers at risk of destitution this year.Ministers were also criticised for consulting on extending 'no recourse to public funds' rules, which prevent many migrants from accessing benefits.The government has consulted on proposals to extend the rules to people granted Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK.The EHRC published 57 assessments overnight – 33 relating to UK government action and 24 to Welsh Government action – looking at whether they're meeting recommendations made by the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights last March.Dr Mary-Ann Stephenson, EHRC chair, said: 'Among the UN's recommendations are steps that the government could be taking to improve how people arriving in this country settle and contribute to it.'Which should accelerate their integration into society and improve social cohesion in our communities.'That's why we are calling on the UK government to implement the outstanding recommendations for promoting economic, cultural and social rights in full.'The Home Office was contacted for comment.
