housing how about help people living on the streets 1000s of them.They need home but get turned away because we have a shortage of home so hoe the bloody hell can we take 10,000 to 15,000 pluss more immigrants when we do not have room to house them .

And how many thieves,rapists and murderers are amongst this army sweeping North? There is no way of knowing who the hell they are and what convictions they may be concealing. Granted most of them are just ordinary folk who see a chance of a better life by just turning up at the door of a more prosperous country. So rather than just doing the thumbs down , explain how any convicted criminals will be weeded out at the door in the absence of any identification which has been conveniently lost.

Its obvious what will happen, the Government want to make available to 'Local Councils' a portion of the 'Overseas Aid Budget' to house Refugee's..
I can see Lewes Council for example getting their portion of the Overseas Aid Budget and it will promptly get swallowed up in their 'Talking About It Budget' and they will have no option left open to them other than to house the Refugee's on the normal housing waiting list but with the Refugee's taking priority over long standing desperate local folk..

Sid,
Wouldn't it be fantastic if the Lewes refugee quota had a couple of doctors and teachers in it?

Maria Trapp, your name is music to my ears, but I think you'll find an extra 23 people per km2 adds up to a LOT of extra people when you multiply it by the number of km2 in any country other than, say, Liechtenstein.
Having said which it's more a question of how many people a country can actually support with existing (or readily built) infrastructure.
On that front we're definitely creaking badly under our own weight, unless you're suggesting there's not really a housing crisis?
