The cab rank rule means that barristers cannot discriminate between clients. In any event, this case is not the reason why asylum seekers receive state support. People in the UK without a legal right to be here are not entitled to claim any benefits. https://www.barcouncil.org.uk/resource/cab-rank-rule-statement-of-the-four-bars.html#:~:text=The%20cab%20rank%20rule%20is,are%20available%20and%20appropriately%20remunerated. https://fullfact.org/online/keir-starmer-court-illegal-immigrants/ https://fullfact.org/immigration/illegal-immigrant-benefits-access/
