A National Audit Office report reveals the UK's Afghan resettlement schemes will cost £5.7 billion through 2033 to resettle nearly 38,000 people already arrived plus thousands more pending — roughly £150,000 per person. The programme faces serious questions over data quality, housing shortages, homelessness among resettled families, and whether Britain is adequately fulfilling its duty of care to Afghans who risked their lives supporting UK forces during a 20-year military campaign that itself cost £22.7 billion.
