Where are the immigrants taken when they arrive in the uk?

How could an ordinary person have legitimate answers to this complex and worrying issue please? It is possible to be very concerned and have a shred of compassion. The two are not mutually exclusive.

People seeking asylum have no structure because they are prevented from working, in some cases even volunteering.

Are all the men trouble and criminals because correct me if I'm wrong that's what you seem to be saying?

FGS!!!! Prevented from working? they are here ILLEGALLY!!!
Name me a country in the world who allow people to do that!

Asylum seekers are allowed to work, at least in theory, if they have been waiting a year or more for a decision.

Many illegal immigrants are working - illegally. Some have been trafficked and are controlled by criminal gangs. Others were students whose visas have expired.

We should follow Australia's policy.
You can't get in there without a passport. and in lots of cases they won't take you unless you have a job lined up to go to.

Please read my post above.

Some people are racist

I don’t think it’s racist to want people to come here through the proper channels.

Also agree that destroying their paperwork is a no no.

Cannot imagine you would be allowed to rock up in Australia, say, without passport or correct identification.

No wonder Reform is gaining popularity. Not that they would have a workable solution, but neither do any of the other parties.

Lots of talk, not much action, and no results to speak of.

I do wish people would stop quoting Australia as if they turn back all those who seek asylum. They do not.
They do have immigration centres (some off-shore) where those arriving stay until their case is processed and they are either given leave to remain or deported.

DD volunteers with a group giving free English lessons and another young woman she knows gives free legal advice.

Ah, I see you are a consumate expert in all matters immigration and asylum.

As you were.

Completely different to the shirking free loaders coming on boats!

Please remember that if you vote for Reform because of migrants you will then be subjected to their other policies ( whatever they are ). And that a party that can treat other people in a way that some of us feel to be wrong will quite happily treat their own in that way, too. I was speaking to someone yesterday who is far more knowledgeable politically than I am and he told me that Reform are being backed financially by people involved in offshore banking and climate change deniers. We all acknowledge that there is a problem but please don’t just do a protest vote into the unknown.

I never bothered to vote this time. Tbh, I wouldn’t know who to vote for, certainly not labour, that’s for sure maybee70

Racist is a word that’s thrown in to shut down debate especially when they have no legitimate answer to concerns raised.

The news today bears out the folly of allowing men into this country from countries with ways and beliefs not compatible with ours. They have no structure to their days, get into trouble, commit crime, nobody knows who they are or where they really come from and what their real purpose is.

My sisters best friend years ago, fled Uganda in the 70s. They were quite well off, had a large house with servants.
They were being murdered by the thousands.
They were absolutely genuine refugees.

Most of the Ugandan Asians were well educated and well off.
They came here legally when Idi Amin threw them out. They had British passports so were entitled to come.

They have been an absolute credit to this country and have worked incredibly hard to build up hugely successful businesses.

I worked very closely with them when they arrived in Leicester with just a suitcase and about £15. I went into schools, I helped them to find jobs and I visited their homes.

I'd change 'some' to 'lots of' tbh - it's depressing

"Angela Rayner wants every town to take their share of these people."

It's all very well her saying that? would she like them moving next door to her? It's always do as I say not do as I do isn't it?
We've already got 'our share' here in our seaside town, our young girls are already complaining about these young men following them and trying to chat them upon the beach and in the parks.
And there's the rub, they're all young men, many coming from countries where women are expected to do as they're told. Why should we feel intimidated in our own country, or maybe it just isn't our own country anymore

My previous boss, church going, use to say to me twenty years ago, ‘is it really a bad world’, or ‘ isn’t it everyone’s world’ he moved his family to a lovely little village up in Yorkshire. last I spoke to him, he’s now grumbling, because they are seeing those people up that way, I just answered, “isn’t it everyone’s world”?

Totally agree Terribull, Denmark have said no more also, countries that more larger than ours need to step up, and maybe the answers lie in the countries these migrants are leaving?
Like lots of people I have no solution to this massive problem, I'm sure if I was in their position and saw a chance of an easier life I would take it.

Germany have announced a crackdown and in the last six months arrivals have reduced considerably by half. If they can do it why can’t we?

Could it be because Starmers right hand man, McSweeney, his father has made a huge profit housing these so called asylum seekers? Millions made.

All online to read for the usual doubters.

Ahh yes just listened to all that this morning. They sound like a cash cow to me.

How can their claims ever be processed if they have no documents?
Young male economic migrants should just be turned round and sent back to where they came from.

Absolutely Aveline. Surely they should hang on to any bit of evidence they have to prove who they are and where they are from plus evidence of qualifications. This makes me think they have things to hide and are just unqualified young men jumping on the bandwagon.

To be honest they should not even be allowed to set foot on British soil. Germany, Bulgaria, Greece and other countries don’t want them any more so why should we?

100% agree that the people who came here years ago LEGALLY from the West Indies and Uganda were a completely different matter.

I looked at all the Mums peacefully protesting in pink yesterday saying they are not far right, they are just scared Mums and I wondered how we have come to this.

I was in Nottingham a few months ago and it was like being in Somalia or somewhere. Crowds of young men hanging around outside shops blocking the pavements, spitting on the ground, smoking and being very loud. Everybody was giving them a wide berth.
