Pretty much.

And whole towns made of new builds? They'll be a wasteland by the time the "young families" are retirement age!

Yes, they always get priority anyway.

I heard this guy on LBC sayng a bloke he knew came over on a boat, illegally, and skipped the UK housing waiting list. And was awarded a plush new flat in Chelsea, free rent. Two bathrooms. Three bedrooms. Just in case he wanted to bring over his family.

No British citizen could ever dream of being so lucky.

This migrant is also on Ł2,400 benefits per week.

EDIT. PER MONTH

This has no real place in a serious discussion honestly.

Oh? Why not? I'm not allowed an opinion? If they hadn't given endless housing hostels and hotels over to migrants we may not have this problem. That's my serious contribution. Don't belittle me.

It's panicked propaganda, and that is my opinion, I know it's a popular tactic to insist on being entitled to an opinion and then feel affronted when other people have an opinion about that opinion, but ... I also don't care.

The idea that they're building 12 x 10,000 house town "for the immigrants!" is just nonsense. Over 85% of the UK is British-born. It's also not the reality of the "new towns" that already exist - most of them are populated by (in the majority) white British people. The whole UK is not London, and does not have the demographics of the London area.

As we have 300 hotels all over the shop full to the brim with illegal migrants and the taxpayer is paying for their food, accommodation, medical treatment and heating it would seem the logical next step for the government to build houses to put them in as they have no intention of deporting them

The government is also moving residents into large sites and the private rented sector.

And I would add the hotels have to sack all the staff and get new government appointed staff so its a double blow for each community as well as a huge increase in threat level especially for women and girls

You think it seems even vaguely proportionate to suggest that they're replacing "300 hotels" with 120,000 houses?
