Disgusting.

Andrea Lewis, cabinet member for next generation services, said: "You can't help but to be moved and horrified by footage on the news of refugees risking their lives to escape war and persecution for better lives.

What a gullible idiot.

How many people on here have spare rooms and are prepared to take a couple of Syrians in?


I don't have spare room to take any Syrians in but I'm all for my council taxes going towards giving refuge to Syrian families fleeing a terrible war.

Shame the UK hasn't got a good government.

Bombing the Middle East and Afghanistan certainly hasn't made the "world a better and safer place".


Nope, but it's made arms dealers and oil companies a sh*tload of cash, which was always the motive in the first place.

If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face--forever.

Do you think that's why we pay our rates then? To underwrite the flotsam and jetsam of foreign civil wars? That will come as a great comfort to those struggling to meet their bills around here, Hump. They're going to love that.

Good Governments look after their own by trying to ensure the world is a better and safer place. The only government that looks after it's own per se is N Korea and even the fool there postures about nuking other nations.


You're funny.

If we did nt stir things up in Libya,Iraq,Syria and Afghanistan in the first place we would have saved billions that could have helped our homeless and prevented the humanitarian crisis taking place now.

Thats the price we have to pay I m afraid for not speaking up at the time.

Like many, sadly, our own people are second best.

Still, being a better humanitarian than another looks good ..on here.

I rather fancied a better life some years back but didn't qualify.

You're obviously an intelligent person, so I'm surprised you missed this part of the article:

"The type of properties being looked at are two to three-bedroom homes that have no waiting lists, meaning there will not be an impact on local families waiting for homes."


Why worry about the truth when it gets in the way of paranoid, right wing hate and fear.

True perchy, very true. I don't mind seeing a little bit of humility and compassion, whatever the colour of the politics. Sad that some do and are so wrapped up in hate these days.

That's right because concerns about the allocation of local social housing stock are the first thing that springs to mind when you think about monetarists, isn't it?

Think about this now: do you honestly think that out of the thousands on the housing list there is nobody, not a soul, waiting for either a two or three bedroom home to become available? The previous occupants either having passed away or moved on, a council housing officer standing outside shouting roll-up, roll-up but nobody is? Is that your truth?

Torture, murder, rape......but a least he kept them from becoming refugees.

The refugees coming to the UK are being drawn from the camps in Syria which are full of displaced people.

Being in a camp doesn't make you a refugee necessarily. Look at Sangatte (spelliing?).

Genuine refugees should be helped with provision for them to return home when it's safe to. The reality is, without vigorous checking we don't know who is being let into the UK nor their motivations.

Well I can't imagine many are going to abandon their homes to voluntarily resettle in a refugee camp on the borders of the country with few facilities, little sanitation abd variable prospects to be honest. But I could be wrong.

Equally, if I was ISIS and wanted to spread devotees/cultists into a nation I despise, that would be one option.

Your guess is as good as mine or Cameron as to how many are genuine refugees.
If they say they come from Syria...who do you check with in Syria if they genuine.
Nearly everyone I've seen the media interview say the same thing, then you see loads of young fit men that look more like they've come from Parkistan than Syria.

Ah, the theory that ISIS is despatching its finest on the refugee trail to infiltrate Europe. It's perfect for a series of increasingly untrue Facebook memes.

Not all of them are hypocrites but it's always the same with lefties.

Let's take our chum jez Corby, massive human rights man and all for the poor but brought up in a seven bedroom home, private school ,then university activist leading to right on feck the bosses Union man.

I well remember tony cross land also large house fashionable wife scrapping grammar schools which were the best avenue for poorer kids to get a good education. This guy wanted the smash the burgoisese, etc whilst having parties with the very best pome roll.

These people wouldn't give up their shithouse for a refugee and neither would any on here.

No need to find houses for Syrians as plenty of spare rooms within planet swans community.
