The backlog is the worst issue. I mentioned before (and got sneered at) about an asylum seeker who'd been stuck in one room for 18 months with their family waiting to hear. That does nobody anywhere any good.But aren't Labour trying to do something about this?
They're reemploying border control staff and trying to clear the asylum back log and sending the tax man after the barbers, nail salons etc.
Will their plan work? Who knows?
I'm not someone with a lot of faith in them
but they are trying something. I don't think it's realistic to expect them to sort it after a month.
We need ID cards. It’s the only thing that might sort the black economy. But when they’re suggested no one wants them.
Would genuinely listen to policy proposals but despite having the ear of national media for decades we haven’t heard anything beyond “leave the EU” which has only made things worse
I really think we need to go all out on Northern productivity and connecting Manchester/Liverpool/Leeds to make a London competitor. The economy is so ridiculously centralised the south east and everywhere else are like two different countries which just adds to the feeling of being fucked over by a bunch of toasters in London.
I think you should read this
‘Illegal immigrants’ aren’t entitled to benefits in the UK - Full Fact
A Facebook post calls for “illegal immigrants” to be deterred by stopping benefits—but people in the UK without a right to be here aren’t entitled to benefits already.fullfact.org
I've come round to ID cards tbh. And if we must have ID in the form of a driving license or passport to vote, then lets at least allow the state to provide the means of identification fairly.We need ID cards.
Because no one has said there will be anyway of not "taking a risk" it's about not choosing to live where you increase that risk.From being in a hotel that houses immigrants, from speaking to somebody who's job it is to put people in accommodation. The hotel was out of Coventry, the other was in Coventry.
Like I said, why are illegal immigrants putting themselves at risk of capture by working at a car wash or a nail salon where it's pretty much the "stereotype"?
Because no one has said there will be anyway of not "taking a risk" it's about not choosing to live where you increase that risk.
Do you have the figures to back up your case as frankly it isn't passing muster at the moment.
But if everybody was living comfortably and we had enough social housing to house British citizens and those granted asylum already then nobody would bat an eyelid.
I understand the perceived unfairness but we have to house those we’ve granted asylum and don’t have the facilities because the state has been gutted.
No issue with ID cards myself but the black economy is rife in Italy with them.We need ID cards. It’s the only thing that might sort the black economy. But when they’re suggested no one wants them.

In terms of ID cards, what do they entail?
It's risk limitation, why would they do that when they have less riskier options?OK so people won't sneak into a room to sleep but they will spend all day somewhere? You aren't explaining the logic.
Do you have figures to say that there are no illegal immigrants in this country being housed in accommodation intended for those waiting on asylum / being funded by the tax payer? There are even circumstances where people classed as illegal are housed anyway.
Basically like your drivers licence but for everyone. Would make it easier to check people’s status quickly in the street if you’re a copper or whatever I guess. I just knowing being one of the few places that doesn’t have them means we are easier to work in the black economy than other places which is an obvious draw for certain immigrants.
Lack of education and aspiration has lead to violence crime in all areas in poverty since the 50s and beyond in virtually every country regardless of race and religion. Not to do with immigration as largely 3rd/4th generation in asian communities. Government neglect, lack of investment, breakdown of families and racism leads to isolation and thereby growth of crime. It's not rocket science. The solutions are complex though!I quoted somebody earlier saying:
"'Our system has collapsed. We are at the end. The main reason for this is the continuing influx of refugees,' he said. 'I'm calling for a freeze on refugee admissions, otherwise it would no longer be possible to provide help.'
He also says "Young Muslim adolescents in particular show what goes wrong with integration. Eleven-year-olds are already running around with knives here.'
No idea why anybody would be against it if they had nothing to hide?
That's very racist. The black economy?We need ID cards. It’s the only thing that might sort the black economy. But when they’re suggested no one wants them.

I did used to know how it worked, because I used to volunteer for the refugee centre. Been out of the loop for a number of years thoughIt is interesting how some people who have no clue about the situation regarding migrant hotels try and spread misinformation rather than have an adult debate on migration

Yeah, don't come to Coventry much at all these days.Have a look at the Coventry Hill if you are ever in town and have a chat to the beleaguered people who live around it
You mentioned Allesley. It’s actually the Coventry Hill Hotel that houses asylum seekers.
The village has always been a sleepy village with school fetes, cardivals, a village hall with WI gatherings etc.
Now it’s a ghetto. The local shop is raided on a daily basis. They actually now remove items such as washing tablets from the store as they are pinched daily.
At one point the local pub was invaded by hotel residents and it turned into a drug den and had to be closed for a while.
Many of the hotel residents are frequently drunk and abusive. They target young females and make sexualised comments.
That for some people is the reality. How tolerant would you feel living there?
I suppose making them stay there means the hostile environment policy has continued.Have a look at the Coventry Hill if you are ever in town and have a chat to the beleaguered people who live around it
Almost bought a house round there in 2018 but decided on Eastern Green instead.
Definitely made the correct decision.

Exactly what officials said about Southport isn't it
There were a worrying amount of Sunderland shirts out there last night though for sure
The biggest giveaway is the number of people wearing crocs and flip flops with socks.View attachment 37388

So, the rugby union community you think?The biggest giveaway is the number of people wearing crocs and flip flops with socks.
tbf we could have all got behind sending Wasps fans to Rwanda. Surprised they haven't suggested it yet for a new stadium.So, the rugby union community you think?

Another job for the black market then. When will you leave us alone.No issue with ID cards myself but the black economy is rife in Italy with them.
