Call them what they are. They are not migrants they are asylum SEEKERS. They claim they cannot go back to their country for the fear of persecution or torture. The UK government intentionally does not process their claims in a timely fashion and doesn’t allow them to work, instead packing them into these hotels, giving them 8 pounds a week to survive on. That’s not a fake number. They are stuck there for 2-3 years while their claims are processed. This is when you can pay for a premium visa service for any other type of leave within 2 hours so it is obvious it is done deliberately. Have some compassion, it very much could happen to you.
Imagine if they put this much time and effort into community projects
Why didn’t they protest these hotels before? You’d think Labour came up with this project or something.
We are so boned. Enjoy your human rights while they last.
People are gonna leave something they have no understanding of the benefit of, and then be sad when it turns around and punches them in the gut. again.
This kind of thing makes me ashamed of our country.
Edit: for the eejit commenting below (and no doubt countless more to come) trying to twist the words of my post above; the shame I feel is at the knuckle dragging, flag shagging morons who attend these kinds of protests. Not for the fact we, the UK, are housing asylum seekers.
Crazy how the cops have suddenly lost all ability to do dawn raids and arrest people by the hundreds. I guess they aren’t old enough or disabled enough for them to derive any pleasure from it.
There are other explanations such as they’re cool with it or it’s just government policy.
Deeply shameful.
I’m broken about my country. I’m a child of immigrants, and my dad came here as a refugee. I guess we’re not welcome here anymore.
Can’t go to Benidorm, might as well make the most of the last good weather on a bank holiday weekend and what do these fools want to do? Get drunk, shag flags and shout at hotels!
If this isn’t the biggest collective of stupidity, I don’t know what is!
What’s the collective noun for gammon?
Somebody tell them the football’s back on
Can think of Much better things to do
oh joy the right wing wave is sweeping again with their lies, now we just have wait for someone to badly hurt or at worse die. It’s prolem, yes but they being fed lies and misinformation by the rich and powerful who don’t have their best interests at heart
I don’t understand, if they aren’t in hotels where would they go? In the streets? The gammons would hate that too.
This is very uncomfortable, as someone that doesn’t look British but I was born here and my mother is English? Would I be targeted next?
Swap a bigot with a refugee.
These cretins. Let’s hope they don’t breed.
When the government doesn’t have a cohesive plan to deal with the problem, this is bound to happen
It’s a deliberate strategy to create this exact public resentment instead of just processing claims efficiently. The lack of compassion for people stuck in limbo is the real issue here.
I just think of the people in those hotels, scared and without anything they can do about it. The isn’t even protesting at someone’s house (which I find quietly revolting as well)–this is bullying someone who definitionally can’t do anything back at a place of temporary refuge. England’s culture as a Christian nation gets trotted out at moments like this, but it’s hard to imagine an observance less Christian than going to a place where migrants are housed and making them terrified for their lives. This feels like a failure of basic humanity.
This is the equivalent of yelling at the checkout girl because you don’t like the supermarket’s business policies.
So tories give their friends titles and millions of public funds and still nothing done about them but asylum seekers who fled wars sponsored by uk arms are the problen
Let’s not forget that all this started when people online believed misinformation about the migratory status of the Southport murderer, who was a native Brit, born to a Christian family.
These utter morons turned an utterly horrific incident into something all about them, shitting on the memory of the victims in the process. Rioting while parents were grieving over a *lie they wanted to be true*
There’s not enough contempt in the universe for these people. Send them all away in small boats, we’ll keep the migrants please.
Hard working immigrant here – they’re right to pissed! Why are European countries a charity case for economic migrants ? Who asked for this ? If people don’t benefit a country they shouldn’t be there – end of ….
Why doesn’t the government fucking listen?
Inbred Traitors the lot of them.
These people are heavily manipulated by billionaires to channel their anger towards the most vulnerable and poor – whilst completely overlooking how the rich cause more economic, social and environmental damage. Welfare is a drop in the ocean compared the amount lost from siphoned revenue out of the UK.
They didn’t make it to the hotel in Liverpool. Chased around the city and back to where they started.
And those who dont attend arent there because they’re in Spain…

You may want to avoid that part of Canary Wharf.
