QuoteBut asylum groups attacked the court's verdict. Donna Covey, chief executive of the Refugee Council, said: 'Almost all asylum seekers arrive in the UK with nothing, and a great many of those who are refused but who can't go home straight away end up homeless and destitute.
'To refuse treatment to those people simply because they cannot pay for it is appalling and inhumane.'
