The title is confusing me. Is it saying that asylum seekers are using their benefits for gambling or that they are given specific cards for gambling-use?

Not much you can really do to actively prevent it, only. you could block gambling places but they'd just get cash from an ATM instead

A Freedom of Information request made by PoliticsHome revealed more than 6,500 payments in gambling settings were attempted by asylum seekers in the past year.
The payments were made on Aspen cards, given by the Home Office to asylum seekers awaiting a decision to allow them to buy basic items, with small weekly top-ups.

>rather than buying necessities, some asylum seekers have successfully used the chip and pin Aspen cards to gamble at physical sites such as casinos, slot machine arcades and national lottery retailers. Attempts to gamble online using the cards were made, but were blocked each time, and in some cases, cash withdrawals were made in or near gambling sites, located using the terminal's ID number. The FoI showed a peak of 227 attempts to use the cards for gambling in one week last November and the lowest number of attempts was 40 in a week last July. Conservative shadow home secretary Chris Philp said it was wrong for asylum seekers to be gambling using taxpayers' cash, adding: "This madness has to end." There are currently around 80,000 Aspen card users in the UK
Hey this exactly like when abbos used the cashless card for alcohol

What if and just hear me out. You stopped giving them free money for invading? We tried it over here in the 90's but a kike judge said no.
