AIBU to think the PM is ignoring the asylum issue?

[BusyDog]

I’m firmly working class, and I don’t believe that what we need is to spread the asylum seekers around more. The reason I’m annoyed is not because I don’t want them housed by the middle class, but because I think it’s completely ignoring the problem. I think we need secure detention centres whilst the country either approves the application or sends them off home. These will be safe, food provided, clothes, play areas for the children. The accommodation will have the basics like temporary housing does but they can’t leave until application approved or sent home. But they can’t leave and roam UK unless their application is accepted. Anyone who is violent etc and makes it not safe will automatically be sent home.
I liked this prime minister as I thought he had both feet on the ground, but it seems not….!
If he admits it’s not fair only working class has to deal with it, then surely, he admits it’s a problem and he’s not actually addressing it?

YANBU = PM ignoring actual issue
YABU = Issue is that only working class have to deal with them

I mean women bishops, blessing gay marriages and interfaith iftars

I couldn't possibly say due to his lack of presence when the Division Bell rings, I doubt he votes with the Gov when he is present tho.

Mary I is that you? 😂

Well he’s not going to make himself very popular if he starts spreading immigrants claiming asylum all over the UK is he?

Take the village of Paddington for example. They are going to house 1,250 so-called asylum seekers just half a mile outside a village of just 350 people. Don’t think Andy is going to very popular with them is he? If the same is going to happen up and down the UK, then he’s playing right into Farage’s hands. Still, maybe he sees the new arrivals as potential Labour voters.

Is he present at all :-)

And now? With Labour’s barracks?

Its still private contractors -

Private defence contractors, facilities management companies, and real estate developers make money from barracks by securing government contracts for construction, maintenance, catering, and alternative housing conversions like asylum seeker accommodation

It’s interesting that anyone would think they don’t contract it out.

More fture labour voters in each boat. Chnages the voting base. We want to settle more immigrants in middle class communities, ermm wonder why that is? packing the ballot box.

You are seagull and I claim my £5.

Yeah 😄

😂 you got me!

There will come a day, and maybe it's here already, where voting will be futile since those in power refuse to improve the lot of the citizens for reasons that just cannot be fathomed. And there's nothing we can do about it is there?

Changing the deck chairs on the Titanic won't change things either. Whoever is in power will do the same eventually, maybe with different PR strategies and messages, but the end result will be the same. Follow the money and mess with the citizens' heads at the same time.

I thought it was you or your mother!

That worked well 🙄

It wasn’t really started but the threat of it was communicated and people did voluntarily flow to ROI via NI.

It feels like we’re here already.

Great post @smallglassbottle

"Spreading them round" sounds a lot like an idea for "mass buy new builds to prop up the building industry during a slowing housing market to offer mass housing with no room for local opposition"

The saddest thing is over all I feel most people genuinely want to help those in need and I know some people who did have the space and willing to welcome Ukraine refugees.

I personally wanf us as a country to be a safe haven in the world , a beacon of moral integrity and compassion .
But we have to help those most in need and the most vulnerable which I would strongly suggest are women and children !
If after helping women and children there are spaces left...yes let's have some men !

And if the men attack the local women?

No right to education, outside air, running through a field etc.

Running through a field? Are you trying to argue that is a basic human right? My kids (British citizens) didn’t get to “run through a field” during their childhood - they grew up in a small flat in a city.

The French rebel don't they remember the yellow jackets...but I don't know if it got them anywhere.

Yes minster says it all.

I think men in much smaller quantities could be safer than importing mainly men ?

Still, maybe he sees the new arrivals as potential Labour voters.

House them in marginal seats up and down the land and he could be onto a winner!

• I don't know much about Sweden on this issue but it does seem like they have taken steps to assess this issue !

“Could be safer” doesn’t really cut it though, does it? Women in this country shouldn’t be put at ANY greater risk, no matter how small.
