We’re not full 

& climate change issues aren’t reason to stop immigration. Just distracts from the actual problem & solutions needed.

Where they going to live? We have a housing shortage as it is. 

[Spider]

Process them.

Many could be sent packing.

And apparently the thousands of empty council properties are non-existent.

But nobody wants a solution, that’s far too boring and the headlines aren’t scary then.

With all their families innit! Which kind of cancels the idea of spreading them around the country which was meant to be the plan. Let’s hope they don’t have to share a small room though as it might give them flashbacks

It's been shown there are enough planning permissions to build the necessary houses, but for some reason they're not being built 

Wonder why that is

See above. Somebody already answered your question. And with a right to work they can contribute to tax to support an ageing population.

There’s your start 

Then you’ve got solutions to the housing crisis such as this one so we can build the homes we need 

https://www.centreforcities.org/publication/the-housebuilding-crisis/

On top of that you’ve got repurposing disused offices etc & temporary accom. It’s perfectly doable really. But if we don’t do it and make it hard for them then that deters more coming 🙈

The 270k already needing accom. When do they get housed? 

[Casino]

Now chat about means testing pensions

Thatll be blamed on the boats as well

Theyre not only racist, corrupt cunts, theyre thick as fuck

But who knows, perhaps theres enough thick as fuck,racist, corrupt cunts who will swallow it

Its all theyve got

[Spider]

If you were desperate to flee a war torn country, or under threat, would you send your wife and kids to make the journey, or do it yourself and hope to get them to join you once you’d made it?

A journey that could very easily go to shit and kill you?

No. You’d go yourself. You’d live in camps and risk beatings, being robbed or whatever in the hope of a job and a chance to live in a country that rewards graft.

they are not all just taking the bus to Calais from Syria, then having a sightseeing jaunt across the channel.

far easier to paint each and everyone of them as a rapist/murderer then it removes any risk of a human response.

Youd go mad if the police started profiling like that with football supporters

Utter drivel. We are 1 million plus houses short as it stands right now. Labour ease immigration and they’ll get arse kicked again.

Again, forgetting the fact that the tories have missed their own housebuilding targets for ever and a day

Lets get some barges or let em rent hotel rooms

[Cheese]

Funny how people who claim to be concerned about 'over-population' tend to have muliple offspring...

See above - read my post. The latter things can be done in a matter of months. Not all 270k would require that.

 What do & the others who think we are full think we should do?

We’d have to leave the refugee convention. That barely got 13,000 signatures last time round 😂 Not even enough to get a govn response, but they still made an effort. it’s worth a read

Yes just leave you wife and kids to go to a country that will put you in a hotel for 18 months 😂 you’re in the gym everyday and having days out courtesy of the local council/charities whilst they’re over there in a war zone. Top hubby!

I think thats how far the tories have missed the building targets by

It does suggest theres at least 2 million homeless

We could use the 40 new hospitals

Everything you and others are moaning about tonight are because of Tory incompetence, not foreigners. Do carry on though 👍

On a day when its announced 7 million appointment backlog and the boats is topic number 1

So as you can see nothing is happening quickly is it. Add to that schools being full, NHS on its arse, roads full, rail network at breaking point……..do you really think adding 1000s is going to help? The houses aren’t ready. There’s no where for them to stay.

Well according to the big issue the problems started 30 years ago, Tory and Labour are all to blame, you want to allow more immigration which will exacerbate the problems. That’s why your comments are utter drivel.

Doubtful, I’d say a  bigger problem is those families living in more than one house.

What about families who live in one house, but own multiple properties?
