I believe the adequacy of the accommodation is in dispute. But as I say, I need to read further.

I spent quite a bit of time in service accommodation,it is perfectly functional .I had to pay to stay there. The greatest freedom of any democracy is the freedom to leave, if the fellows are unhappy with the free accommodation that has been provided by the UK taxpayer then perhaps they would be happier returning to the war ravaged EU.
This my opinion.

Of course they are..

My own view is that if I were seeking asylum in fear of my life, I would be only too willing to accept all help possible without biting the hand that feeds me.

Or even setting alight to it.

It’s a bit more complex than that. But as you say, it’s your opinion.

You seem to think these people need to just get in the barracks, sit down, accept any conditions and keep their mouths shut. Like grateful little foreigners.

I work with vulnerable women. We sometimes have to put them into our safe-houses. We try and make them as homely and comfortable as possible. They are not just three hots and a cot. These people are afraid for their lives and fleeing dangerous situations.
Should they just accept any old place with unending gratitude?

No, you're right.

I'm wrong.

Next time I feel like I'm badly treated, whether it be my bank or BHA, I'll commit arson.

The future does look rosey, doesn't it?

It could catch on (pardon the pun) next road trip I go on, if I don’t like the service in a restaurant,having passed through several safe countries to get there ,I may torch the gaff. Difference being I would have paid for the food myself.

That’s not how humans work I’m afraid.

If I was in a situation where my country was so bad I sought safety in another country, different culture, different language and they provided me with a bed and food, I’d probably sit down and accept the conditions like a grateful foreigner knowing that it was a hell of a lot better than what I left behind ( Apparently)

Very thoughtful of the ACG -(Anarchist Communist Group) to get involved with the Napier barracks situation and agree with KRAN and demand the asylum seekers are moved out of secure accommodation and housed in communities instead.
Not much hope of that when even the supporters of KRAN like clampy (see post #1) think they should be housed in secure accommodation.

oh yeah......and racism

"Kent Refugee Action Network have said that they look forward to all the residents of the Napier Barracks site being moved out. And we in the ACG feel the same way and would just like to echo what else they said, which is that:
They are not criminals, and need to be housed in communities where they can receive the support they need.
We absolutely agree with that.
Don’t be conned by racist lies and racist propaganda, don’t see other people in an inhuman way and allow vulnerable people to be treated inhumanely."

I’m glad most Brits didn’t have the same attitude between 1933 and 1945. Pretty shameful. How quickly you have forgotten.

There weren't boat loads of time wasters making illegal crossings of the English channel and the barracks housed the armed forces
How times have changed

Despite me being the OP, I wish the mods would lock this thread now. It's become an embarrassment. It's just a place for some pretty foul, racist posters to air their bile. Enjoy.

I’m pretty certain that when you started this thread you had no idea it would turn ugly, of course not, that’s not what you’re all about right, so perhaps in future it’s probably best you avoid starting controversial threads on subjects such as this as I’d hate for you to be considered a shit stirrer or worse.

nah ....off it to the bear pit so you can carry on ad infinitum , juxtapositional debate is no reason to lock a thread .....you are glad to welcome thousands of refugees from completely different cultures into the country , others are not ................it doesn't work , it never has and it never will anywhere on the planet , some cultures can abide each other and get along fine , most can't , fact of life .

That is not my experience at all. I don't think you could be further from the truth. I suppose it depends on one's attitude to other people.
