£4million given towards settling migrants in Manchester

[kas_tippler]

Don`t come to Manchester then if you are that worried.

What a stupid thing to say.

 

[BimboBob]

I say good luck to them. They need all the help they can get. Manchester can afford it. It's the right thing to do.

But those are two different problems. People don't rend to be homeless because of lack of housing but because of other issues surrounding poverty, drug abuse and or mental health

Have you ever had to help someone looking for somewhere to live log on to the Manchester council (or whatever they call it) site to bid on houses? There just aren't enough

 

[totallywired]

If it was up to me Damo we wouldn't accept any!!! The money would be better spent on our existing housing shortage problem

Nice person aren't you. Kids washed up on Turkish beaches and still wouldn`t give them a chance. Thank fuck I live in Gorton, where people see the positive impact of immigration. Do you live in Manchester?

 

[Barcon]

Only if they let me join in their game of Taharrush.

Is that like soggy biscuit?

Not as stupid as the op.

I'm not sure but if it is you're not allowed to play, you're already the world champion at soggy biscuit.

I agree. I can cadge a sip of lager at the bus stop off my Polish chums, at 8am.

I can see the reasoning for helping our own first and others, neither is/are wrong or right. It is just your own personal ideals that prioritize one or the other.
Both views are fair and reasonable depending on again your personal criteria.

For myself i think we should help those who are on their arse from area x before helping others. get them in jobs fixing up houses that are in disrepair for themselves and asylum seekers who are in desperate need. I see loads of boarded up places or buildings suitable for conversion.
Something like this would really help imo, this just smacks of chucking cash around to seem pc.

There is a caveat here though that those with young children from Syria do get looked at first.

The bottom line is though we need more housing.

Bit early for me, but you should try the food in the Jollof café on Hyde Road.

 

[Blue Haze]

Let them in, they're just poor people who need hugs in Germa- wait did you say Manchester? You want to move them HERE?!

;)

Today I went past there and wondered about how it might taste. Somalian ain't it?

They cook dishes from all the regions of Africa, very clean as well.

For fuck's sake. There's this small matter of them fleeing a war zone, having had family members killed or mutilated, losing children and everything they ever had.

There's a sentence I thought I would never see - thank fuck I live in Gorton

I also loved the `BORN IN GORTON` banner on display before the everton game. Nothing wrong with being proud of where you are from.

Was born on mount road fella, loved the welcome to sunny Gorton about 100 yards from my house

Presumably the OP would have displayed the same attitude towards German Jews during the 1930s.

I would be interested to see how many of these migrants have been welcomed down south and not been made part of the social cleansing there.

There are a lot down here on the south coast and in kent,i don't know exact figures.It has been a drain on resources in the smaller towns but what can you do accept kids drowning,it's a dilema
