Al Bundy Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 7 minutes ago, redruby said: They are playing the system. No one has been on that barge for longer than 3 weeks. On the one hand we hear that they are prepared to risk their lives making a dangerous sea crossing and nothing will deter them from coming here etc. Yet on the the other hand they can’t cope living for a few weeks in basic temporary accommodation. It makes me sick that so many fall for this horse💩. Let's be honest, it's the lawyers and human rights activists that are doing the talking for them. This is what the government is up against. It's situations like this that gets people's backs up and to be honest it's the genuine asylum seekers that suffer because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are my thoughts on it too. It stirs up a lot of bad feeling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who work hard all year so they can travel legally to a European country for a few weeks holiday Yeah that's exactly the same tactic 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly I’ve heard it said that the young men make the dangerous journey so they can get asylum and bring their families. So presumably the women and children are just fine carrying on with lives in these ‘war torn countries’ 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So presumably the women and children are just fine carrying on with lives in these ‘war torn countries’ 🤔 I suspect that is possibly correct - in a limited number of situations - how do their 'families' get here? Your second sentence though, gives the lie to that 'claim'. Edited August 25, 2023 by RollingJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These activists and so called human rights lawyers do more harm than good, but they really don't give a toss as long as they get their pay check or 15 minutes of fame. They are parasites. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I’m sure there’s always some genuine cases. The problem is that there are so many playing the system and getting away with it giving them all a bad name. It’s the genuine asylum seekers suffering because of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
