>>>>>They aim to show what Britain might be like if it were to experience the same booming urbanisation as is happening in Nepal and Bangladesh.
They also show what Britain will be like if we continue to let people in from 3rd world countries, and poorer Eastern European countries, who continue to drag this country down to the level they are used to in their own countries.
We already have immigrants from some countries crammed a dozen or more to a house.
We also have people in some areas building garages and sheds at the end of their gardens and renting them out to immigrants (even if the building has no running water or sanitation).

You did know when you posted that, that it was to publicise aid to Bangladesh?
// The appeal has been backed by the Government, with International Development Secretary Justine Greening saying: “By matching pound for pound all public donations to this appeal, we will help Practical Action provide safe drinking water and basic sanitation to over four thousand people living in slums in Bangladesh and Nepal. //
I thought you were against that kind of thing?

Really believe in that do you Sandy?

Don't be so naïve.
As I say above, there are loads of people living in garages and sheds at the end of people's gardens in areas of high immigration (like Slough in the article above). These have no running water or proper sanitation.
There are also Eastern European immigrants setting up "shanty towns" in some London parks and other nice areas of London.

And look at this "shanty town" in the UK set up by Romanians, looks like hovels to me

So don't tell us nobody would live in a hovel in the UK.

In the 19th century many people lived in terrible conditions in this country, including those born here.
Many people living in one room, a shared outside toilet, no bathroom and you had to go to a public bath for a proper wash and so on.
But we have moved on since then. Outside toilets have gone, most houses now have a bathroom, people don't live 15 to a room.
So what we DONT need is a load of people coming here dragging us back to the Victorian ages.

The fact is that time of the greatest number of slum dwellers in the UK was when Buckingham Palace, the current Palace of Westminster and many other fine buildings in our cities were being built.
The project in the link is intended to arouse assistance from the 1st World to help people in the 3rd
Attempting to pervert the visual associations into some sort of warning to us is spurious and stupid
The developing world has Shanty Towns
We don't
And aren't likely to - despite the isolated examples given here
Anyone who thinks a few makeshift shelters in a London park is akin to downtown Dhaka obviously hasn't a clue

My wife grew up in two suburbs of Birmingham called Small Heath and Sparkhill.
In the 1950s and 1960s these were quite pleasant suburbs with mostly working class people, but they were decent houses and everyone looked after their garden and kept the place tidy.
When she was young she lived in Sparkhill and my wife's bedroom used to look out over the back gardens and she said it was a pleasure to look at all the nice gardens with a well mown lawns, nice flowerbeds, a small greenhouse, and a small vegetable plot.
Then the Asians started moving in to the area and the whites started to move out.
Gradually the gardens went downhill, with people building awful extentions out the back made of breize blocks. Nice fences were replaced by corrugated metal, rubbish was just thrown a the end of the garden and left there, soon there were rats running around.
Eventually the whole street became Asian, and the whole area went downhill.
My wife moved out to live with me, and left her mother there on her own.
One night her mother woke up to find a black man in her bedroom demanding to know where her handbag was.
This was the last straw for my wife and she moved her mother into a home.
If you drive through Sparkhill now it is 100% Asian and the area is a dump.
30% of the cars are uninsured and if people don't want a sofa or a matress any more they just dump it in the street.
I find the whole area so upsetting I now refuse to drive through it and always drive round it rather than going through it.
All these people on here who are so "pro immigration" should see what a damaging effect immigration has on an area and a community.
Seeing the effect immigration has had on a area has made to very anti immigration, certainly at the levels we get it and the type of people we allow in.

>>>The developing world has Shanty Towns. We don't
And how do you think Shanty Towns start, with one dwelling.
If that is allowed to stay then others are built alongside, then more, then more, and suddenly we have a shanty town.
If enough people keep coming here and building these rough dwellings then eventually they will grown into a "shanty town"
