How did they find the money for this? Also, no checks to confirm what sort of people we are letting into the country.

This country is an utter disaster,m

I don't believe you. In any case, being housed in a local army base doesn't sound like luxury.

Anyone can say they have insider information.

Ostrich? Head? Sand?

Is one meant to feel hard done by because they aren't housed in an army base? If you read my post properly , you'd see I'm not questioning if they are or not. Most of the UK population wouldn't be jumping for joy at being housed here.

Your stock Daily Mail phrase , "doesn't fit your narrative," doesn't cover up an insecurity about your level of education, by the way.

The ‘be kind’ and ‘progressive’ brigade really show their true colours with responses like this one.

Ok, well then, seeing as you know better than me, I am sure we all look forward to hearing about my prep and secondary school record , university degrees, professional qualifications, career to date, investments portfolio, value of my house etc….

Or maybe you don’t know and have no clue?

Yes, of course. It's all about your investment portfolio. I wondered if you'll judge education by the amount of money you've accumulated. They are different things.

It's 20k people plus their dependents.

These people helped and protected British military in Afghanistan. Many risked their lifes to do so. What else can we do other than offering them a safe haven??? Seriously.
