Reconsider the policies on immigration/asylum seekers

We are really in big trouble. We have lipodystrophy, big breasts, big stomachs, we are growing fat yet we don't have money to buy any larger clothes. If we could get at least £20 clothes vouchers on top of the food vouchers it would be better. We can't even buy a bra or even underpants. It's very unfair.
