Have you not heard, hotels are being filled at extortionate costs.
It's only about 8 million quid a day though, so nothing to worry about.

I'm aware of refugees being housed whilst their eligibility is assessed, as per international law, and many of those are, especially in Blackpool, Afgans that worked for the UK military.I presume that's my quote as you somehow cut me out of it

I'd imagine refugee accomodation would be a really silly place for illegals to hide from the authorities. You'd expect them to be found and arrested fairly quickly if they were that stupid.

Think of all the fortunate hotel owners and their staff who are benefiting from our largesse after several years of Covid-induced parsimony. They do say every cloud has a silver lining.

If they’ve crossed by a dodgy boat they aren't legal are they.I'm aware of refugees being housed whilst their eligibility is assessed, as per international law, and many of those are, especially in Blackpool, Afgans that worked for the UK military.

Not all illegals go missing, but yes some do.
However many know with no documents there's little point in running as they'll be housed in hotels until they are placed elsewhere and not sent back anywhere.
The whole costs are ridiculous.
Nearly 90% of those crossing in boats from safe countries are male
As UK answers call to help Ukrainian women and children, most boat arrivals are young men travelling from safe countries without prior permission Statistics reveal unfairness of situation where those coming illegally - and paying criminal smugglers - can push their way to front of queue UK is...

They're completely legal if they present themselves to the authorities requesting asylum! They're illegal if they don't or if they later disappear but then they don't cost us anything unless they're caught and subsequently deported.

Were not on about any coming by safe and legal routes, but illegal crossings.
The ones coming aren't coming from a war torn region, but from France.
Government admits illegal immigration of at least 135,000 since 2017 but number likely much higher - Migration Watch UK Blog
Analysis of the official statistics on irregular migration show that more than 135,000 people have been detected attempting to enter the UK illegally since 1 January 2018. The total quadrupled – from just over 13,000 in 2018 to more than 52,000 in 2022. Just under 60% of total attempts were by...

We shouldn't be paying out silly money to house these people who shouldn't be here
Let's not pretend there's no cost or risk either, as we don't know who they are.
The ones who go missing could be anyone too and of course they cost us, they have to go somewhere and use services etc, many will end up in criminal activity.

Good on him.
Shame about his right wing politics or he could have become an MP.
And it's not just a few lefties on here. It's most of the UK. Unlucky.
And there is possibly nobody that has raised more money for local charity than me on this site. But I don't go on about it because it's my business.

It pays to put all the attention on a few thousand in boats while giving visas to 1.5 million last year.
Stop the visas and the perceived overcrowding stops immediately, but too many on the gravy train of student visas (750,000) for starters.
