“Asylum seekers in England can claim UK welfare benefits for more than one wife.”
The claim is not supported by current UK law. Asylum seekers in England generally cannot claim mainstream welfare benefits at all; they receive a separate asylum-support system instead. Historical rules for a small number of legacy benefit cases involving polygamous marriages do not apply to asylum seekers and do not show that asylum seekers can claim benefits for more than one wife.
“Anne Boleyn sought marriage to King Henry VIII of England rather than becoming his mistress.”
The evidence more firmly supports that Anne Boleyn resisted becoming Henry VIII’s sexual mistress than that she clearly pursued marriage as her documented goal. Henry’s letters show his offer, and later historians often interpret Anne’s resistance as a bid for marriage or queenship. But the provided evidence does not directly preserve Anne’s own contemporaneous statement of that intention, so the claim overstates certainty and simplifies a contested courtship.
