Default What Claire Richards thinks about refugees fleeing persecution..

Back when she was in Steps, she and other band members were asked about political issues. When asked about refugees, she said "Why are we paying for all these people to come into the country anyway?"

Well Claire, I think that all countries are required to take in a certain number of the worlds persecuted people, people fleeing dictators and genocide. This is nothing to do with economic migration.

In spite of what the Daily Mail says, Britain does not take in any more refugees than other countries and it's criteria is quite strict. Most african refugees for example end up in other african countries. Only a minority end up in europe and they are divided between different european countries.

I think that comment shows ignorance and insensitivity on her part.

She obviously doesn't extend her emotional tendencies to the victims of genocide and persecution in the more hostile unstable parts of the world.

Yet you constantly bring up Spencer 'hitting somebody' which didn't happen, that isn't relevant to the show either.

Claire is right, when I came to America on my banana boat I worked hard for my money, my daddies in the strip club made it rain.

How did I know your non-BB related posts would be just as awful and deluded as the rest...please, please don't ever stay for off-season.

I hope you return to the Daily Mail comments section for a few months so we can have some peace.

The character and political views of housemates is a factor in voting for them. If someone was a member of the BNP, lots of people wouldn't want to vote for them.
