watched part of a programme on tv, last night, it said to house all the immigrants we will have to build 200?

Question

houses a year for 20 years , what about the people born here , will they build new houses for them ? council's say they cannot afford to do this,!!

Answer 1

Don't get me started on this one, I just hope my kids will be at the top of any lists when they come up to finding homes as the poor things will never afford to buy homes in this day and age.

Answer 2

So that means, what, an absolute maximum of 2500 immigrants housed a year, assuming we're in the business of packing the houses right out sweatshop-style?

How many down-on-their-luck brits get housed on the social again? Oh, that's right, lots more. Which is why we have portions of entire cities that are packed out with estates.

And if you're being housed, then you're here legally. Which means that when you're housed, you can look for work, and pay tax, and buy your house. Social housing is an investment, not a cash sink.

Answer 3

Don't think the councils can afford to do this - they're all to busy just now spending the council tax on housing asylum seekers and immigrants. It's grossly unfair to the indigenous population who've been waiting for DECENT houses for years only for people to arrive from abroad and walk straight into them.

And before the PC brigade jump on me - I KNOW lots of the immigrants are working here and paying taxes. It does NOT give the local councils the right to put them to the head of the housing queue. This is one of the things that's turning Brits against immigrants/asylum seekers.

There will be plenty of new homes built - only problem is they probably won't be for the ordinary people.

Answer 4

you miss understood this mate. this is for the people those are in shleters awaiting asylum. so government is planning to let only 200 asylem seekers in this country. but current ration is too high. so government planned to give them housing and better living. rather then having 2 million a year it is better to have only 200 a year and treat all equal. so they will provide them 200 houses as well.

we are definiatly safe as every council has there own budgets to spend on the area and housing. if your council is messing around you have legal right to ask them where they spending the money. and if it is not justified then you can grab them to the court. as simple as that.

hope it helps. many thanx.

Answer 5

Have you drove around an seen what has happened to the houses that are being used for 10 or more to live in .They will need a lot more to replace these.

Answer 6

probably not, same as the NHS cant afford all the funding for treatments and such but they can afford to have Iraqis flown here for treatment then flown home

Answer 7

I think it was a lot more than that. Did you see where five coaches per day come into Victoria from Poland. They also said that one person per second was entering the UK. The mind boggles, but it seems that they will be likely to get housed before a british national

Answer 8

Lets just hope other countries where the Brits have emigrated to don't send them back here where they belong.

We would never house all of them.

Answer 9

Nancy you've got it about right it makes me so bloody angry and bewildered as to which department of the government sanction all this. just send them packing all of them and let this country get back to sanity so come on Mr Brown we are looking to you to give us our country back and rid all this immigration for all times.//and cancel out CP and Human rights/ours come first, the Brits are fed up to the back teeth with these scroungers

Answer 10

Britain needs 1 million homes, yesterday! Your figures seem non-sense.
