The High Court has awarded Epping Forest District Council a temporary injunction to remove asylum seekers from a local hotel.
Setting a precedent?

I’m in the grow up and speak only for yourself group myself, it’s a group of one.

If that’s aimed at me, or just personal VS We Don’t Care. 😁

No, and it’s not BS either.

I think it's a thread about the woman who started it but they're joining in with their own versions 😁

I do remember having a look at the founder of the group, DD may have sent me a link.

What bothers me is that the majority of illegal immigrants are from countries where TB is endemic. Apparently, here in the UK, TB is on the rise and we are in danger of losing our 'low incidence' status. Statistics show 81% of new cases are in people born outside the UK. If you search Google for countries where TB is endemic you'll find many matches for countries where illegal immigrants are coming from. I wonder if the government have a screening system in place. If you search Google for countries where visitors to the UK need to show a current TB certificate you will find all the countries that illegal immigrants are coming from. The traffickers take their ID away of course.

Do you remember the NO SPITTING notices in buses back in day? That was because one way TB is spread is by spores that form when spittal dries out. The spores are very resistant and are viable for years. The introduction of the BCG vaccination brought the incidence here down to low status.

^Yes but that seems to be what PNis all about. Happily, We Don’t Care. That’s her choice^

For folk who supposedly don’t care, some of you are going on about it rather a lot🤔

As Casdon says, you’re using the royal ‘we’. You don’t speak for me.

Neither, it appears, do they speak for GNHQ.

I'm lost now grin

Who doesn't care, and what about? Who isn't speaking for HQ, and how do we know?

We don’t know.
But PNis saying that some unspecified person isn’t doing it.

The government have won their appeal for asylum seekers to be allowed to stay in the Bell Hotel.

Surprise or what?

Some 'in' joke I would imagine.

If it refers to the fact that some personal attacks have not been deleted, it could be because they were not reported as they were thought best left to speak for themselves.

I really don't care a jot, though!

I wouldn’t be going anywhere near Epping this weekend, I imagine that there are a lot of unhappy local residents.

I suspect that there will also bussed in agitators.

Where were the protesters expecting them to go?

Yvette Cooper has said that the plan is to have an organised programme of closures, and ultimately there will be nobody in ex-hotels, but that has to happen systematically. I don't know how many people are in the Bell Hotel, but they can't all be rehoused overnight.
