16th December 2019 to be precise. Known by some as the day of the big fib.Meltdown
You had one years ago
A big thank you...
To all you quitters, because I have been finally converted... After a few days of deliberation following the election, myself and my family have decided that england is no longer for us so I am now a 'quitter'! We have just booked our one way tickets out of here to my partner's country, along...

My mind at the moment is ill be voting Labour next GE
It's relevant because until they are processed we need to treat them with a bit care a nd dignity. More than the french do.
The government of the day are here to also care for its citizens. They are damned either way. Come out with some solutions of your own.
I'll listen

Lets see how soon a fire breaks out on the barge and they all have to be housed in hotels?
Andy
Lots of them are already in hotels. There is one quite nice one about 8 miles from me that was taken over by Government money a long time ago and WE are paying for it.
The UK doesn't have enough homes for its own people let alone the number arriving by boat every year.
Not sure what the answer is TBH, but don't see Labour offering much of a suggestion and as they are likely to be the biggest party at the next GE, it seems that nothing is going to change.

As long as they are housed, fairly and decently (dignity) I agree.
More staff (years ago as was advised ) to process quicker and return those that don't qualify was what was needed. Also the visa overstayers.
The Government refused that option. Up to them to now get on top of a situation they have let get out of control.
It's why we vote and have Governments, to make and implement policies so we don't have to. Can't remember any other policy I've had to come up with to give to the Governnent. Is it something you, or anybody else in here does?
An efficient processing system is all that's needed.
Thye government refuse to disclose the cost of the barges, so any comparison between current hotel costs and costs for the barges is not possible.
The government intentionally prevent any comparison of costs.
No doubt before long they'll transfer the costs of the barges onto local counils also.

You'll now be accused of fast tracking people into the country.

And the lawyers. And the RNLI.
In fact anyone you can think of apart from the government. Not their problem...
People seeking refuge who were ordered to live on a controversial giant barge have been reprieved after legal challenges claimed the vessel was unsafe and unsuitable for traumatised people. The developments come as the Home Office fulfilled Rishi Sunak’s promise to use barges and former military bases to accommodate some asylum seekers after the cost of housing them in hotels rose to £1.9bn pounds last year.
But their use has been condemned by refugee organisations for being costly, cruel and inhumane. The Fire Brigades Union has described the barge as “a deathtrap” because of overcrowding and narrow corridors and exits.
The refugee charity Care4Calais said it had stopped 20 people from being forced to board the barge so far, with dozens more referrals coming in “by the hour” from other refugees staying in hotels.
Wilsons, the immigration solicitors, is working with Migrants Organise to represent clients who received official notices saying they would be moved to the barge “imminently”.
Brian Dikoff of Migrants Organise said: “We had very serious concerns about safety onboard and that the Home Office would not properly screen or safeguard individuals planned to be moved to the barge and we are now seeing these concerns become reality.”

Looks like we're gonna need a better boat, Fillyboyo.

I'm not disputing it happens, but the government need to "sort" the system rather than blame others.
I'll now be criticised by some for writing that, because I haven't set out, in detail, exactly how they should sort it.
There have been suggestions but the government refuse to consider them.
Exactly. What a complete and utter balls up the government has made of this whole thing. Instead of investing £££ in employing & training more people to process claims, we get guff like the barge. And, such is the robustness of the plan (not), they've evidently not even considered what would happen if any of the migrants refused to get on the blo0dy thing!

Great distraction technique though.
Still nothing addressing the issue. Bet a few people are getting rich from these boats. Money that could and should have been spent on processing
