AIBU to feel helpless about a large asylum camp in our village?

[putupwhatever]

My village has been chosen for a 1500 open asylum camp for single men. It will be an open camp (as the men haven't done anything wrong so aren't detained.)

The thing is the village only has 700 people and it is pretty isolated. it's about 10 miles to the nearest city and you can walk to another small village. There is a playpark, a pub and a primary school.

It has to go through planning, but the government have changed the planning laws so that they grant themselves planning and you can't see it as it is deemed sensitive. So they will just grant themselves planning and you can't oppose it without a judicial review--by which time it will probably be already open.

They want to reduce the number of people in hotels. But am AIBU to think that this puts the burden of sorting these issues out on one tiny community? Feels like we are collateral damage to be honest. The community will be outnumbered 2 to 1 and it feels too much. There is nothing for them to do or places to go. Also the fact that it is all single men put in one massive place with no money or means or anything to do is going to lead to problems

Apparently the camps cost £10 less a night than the hotels. But they don't count the set up costs which are astronomical (the one in Essex was £47 million to set up). So it seems like it's not not even cheaper than the problem it is trying to solve but much more expensive.

AIBU to feel a bit helpless? It seems so unfair but there is nothing I can do. We wouldn't be able to move from the village anyway as no one would buy a house here.

Now who's sounding like a bot. What the actual fuck is this nonsense of a comment.

Well said Lavender. The have the same tiresome tropes repeated over and over again.

Anyone who has a differing view is a bot apparently.

Says who? They're here legally.

It is not illegal to claim asylum.

Ffs! And people wonder why the nation is going down the pan. Clue - it's not asylum seekers.

Was it not something like 40+% of the men who turned out in NI rioting and protesting against migrants to "protect our women and girls" had convictions specifically for violence against women and girls?

So they knew the identities of all those in attendance? Thousands of individuals. I find this rather hard to believe given that they don't even know the identities of who they let into the country.

Exactly. The Home Office needs to get better at assessing claims but you either sign up to the ECHR or you opt out. You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

You only have to look at the morons in the TR marches to see that many of them have either been in prison or skirted close to it.

Rather than worrying about deporting men from 'those countries,' we'd be better exploring ways to export a large section of our own. Except nobody would have them.

She's not wrong. Never have I met more white middle class professional victims than when I was studying. I'm not particularly right wing but the problem with so many lefties is that they're driven by emotion rather than logic and facts. That's why so many seem impervious to reason.

Nice little late flurry of predictable waffle. I don't believe it's that lot who are proscribed terrorists.

Ok then.

Yes in that occasion that was the percentage of those who were identified.

You know most of the protests and subsequent rioting is actually orchestrated by gangs who are using child criminal exploitation to amass the young men participating right? This is not uncommon knowledge.

Not just ex military bases but also current ones!

It’s infuriating that before they move into housing quarters, that property is renovated extensively including new kitchens, bathrooms and carpets - yet current serving personnel are living in sub standard accommodation including in leaky and mouldy properties with sometimes temperamental outdated heating systems. Ridiculously worn old carpets, and the curtains can be as old as from the 70s/80s! Kitchens/bathrooms from also from decades ago back when blue/pink/green suites were all the rage.. 🤦‍♂️

There have already been a number of sexual assault incidents committed by these people that have been dropped into the garrison that I live close to. It’s scary, especially when the serving personnel are away leaving their families on their own.

I wonder where we could deport our own thugs to? Unfortunately countries like Spain have enough of them as it is.

🤣

The antifa lot are even worse though! They're always the ones in masks setting cars on fire. And usually for stuff that doesn't directly affect them like immigration does. It's usually over some nonsense like somebody saying a person with a willy isn't female.

😂😂😂

Look at the voting stats on this thread and weep. Not gone the way you hoped. You did try though. Bless you. Night.

Yes that’s what Rhiannon Whyte said before she had a screwdriver stabbed into her brain 23 times.

Lefty scum who are the biggest fascists on earth. They really need a name change.

Not just ex military bases but also current ones!

Just the place for unvetted males that could be terrorists. 🤦

I don't think it was me you asked or else I've missed it.

I know what you're referring to and I think that's a very specific incident which is also kind of a bit of an anomaly statistically speaking. Utterly horrendous and awful for the women impacted. But it definitely reeked of organised crime to me as opposed to just asylum seekers having that 'mentality'. Investigation concluded that this wasn't something that seemed to be normal or representative of any demographic or religion. But then the police response was pretty poor so I don't think we have enough information to get a solid understanding of the motivation and context behind it. That was almost 10 years ago now. I think if it was purely representative of migrant men we'd have seen it repeated many more times since on that scale and we haven't.

Why are they morons? Because they hold a
different view to you?

She didn’t start the thread!

Freedom and peace for all, including refugees!

Except for Tommy Robinson the moron and his cohort!

Welcome Refugees!

Live throughout the UK, not just London!
