MORE than 110,000 asylum seekers came to the UK last year.

Home Secretary David Blunkett now says: "It's bad but we'll fix it".

The same David Blunkett (October, 2001) said: "Britain's asylum system is in a mess from beginning to end but I will sort it out".

Home Office Ministers are now scurrying around trying to put smoke and mirrors between reality and Tony Blair's promises.
