It sounds like they want to opt out of central government funding that helps pay to support the refugees. It will leave them with the same amount of refugees but less money for the council.
It’s like “opting out” of crime by refusing to take funding for Police.
I guess the taxpayers will pay the price for such political stunts.

I couldn’t think of a less attractive party to vote for.

Historically in England Church parishes were responsible for the poor in their parish. It wasn’t unheard that they would drag a pregnant woman to the border of the next parish and push her over so she gave birth in the neighboring parish so her and baby became their problem.
Seemed relevant.
