Afghan Refugee Scheme

[fender62]

call me cold hearted, but how many dinghy arrivals this year alone, now we are supposed to house feed support x amount of afghans, i suppose if you could? kick out all the male dinghy illegals and all the foreign criminals in prison and the ones still walking the streets, pie in the sky of course, but do you think we should let x amount in, and where are they going to live, and be supported, i guess we don't council waiting lists anymore for the indigenous brits..

We could employ the Afghans who were protecting the British Embassy and Consulates in Afghanistan, to man our Borders and keep the economic migrants out.
Win - win.

[ummmm]

They don't jump the waiting list.

Have an open referendum. All those who vote for more refugees and asylum seekers who have a spare bedroom or even a sofa should house them by law. Problem solved.

Now that Johnson has said no one needs to quarantine in hotels when the come to the UK, there will be plenty of 5 Star Luxury Hotels where our Afghan allies can be housed.
It could even boost our economy with sales of Halal Goat meat.

We had a General Election not long ago when the winning party promised a points-based system to control immigration.
// - Migrants will contribute to the NHS – and pay in before they can receive benefits.
- Our new system gives us real control over who is coming in and out. It allows us to attract the best and brightest from all over the world.
- Only by establishing immigration controls and ending freedom of movement will we be able to attract the high-skilled workers we need to contribute to our economy, our communities and our public services.
- There will be fewer lower-skilled migrants and overall numbers will come down.
- And we will ensure that the British people are always in control. //

That is what they promised. They have failed us miserably.
10,000+ illegal migrants so far this year.

I wonder if any have been vaccinated or if like the boat people, they get tested, show positive, will still be allowed in.

They’ve probably all got Rabies, Ebola, MERS and Aids too. Why take the risk ?

Guess we dont get council waiting lists anymore since Thacher sold them all off either.

[fraser]

Close the borders this is a small island no more immigrants house our own people first Britain first.

Let them in, someone's going to have deal all the nice cheap heroin we'll soon be getting.

Boris agrees to accept 20,000 Afghan refugees.

// Women, children and religious minorities will be prioritised in a new UK resettlement scheme for 20,000 Afghan refugees, Boris Johnson will announce, acknowledging that those who helped the western coalition over two decades are now most at risk from the Taliban takeover. //

[fender62]

and i thought britain was running out of housing, guess not..must be plenty to go round, or get dumped on some council and hope for the best in your bedsit if your lucky.

[Gromit]

The Government’s immigration policy is in tatters.

Probably 10,000 boat people already, more by the day, 20,000 Afghanistanis on their way.

The only people Johnson and Patel are successfully keeping out are the doctors, nurses, lorry drivers and Software specialists.

01.55 Gromit , 20.000 refugees heading for the UK , and this is just a starting figure. I hope they don,t go living next door to any Brexiteers.
