Half of asylum seekers complain UK housing funded by YOU is 'completely inadequate'

EXCLUSIVE: FIFTY percent of asylum seekers surveyed about the quality of housing they have been provided, which is paid for by the taxpayer, have branded it as "completely inadequate", it has emerged.

Refugees housed across Birmingham and the West Midlands were quizzed about the standard of accommodation they were provided and a further 17 per cent described it as just "mediocre".

The properties were provided by G4S, one of three companies hired by the Home Office to provide asylum seeker accommodation up and down the country.

Just 11 percent of people asked said the housing was excellent, eight percent described it as good, and 14 percent said it was adequate for their needs.

The survey was carried out by Migrant Voice, an organisation set up to encourage a more balanced and inclusive debate on immigration in Britain.

It has been submitted to an ongoing Home Affairs Committee inquiry into accommodation for asylum seekers, set up in the wake of the Syria refugee crisis.

The report said: "Migrant Voice has undertaken a research into the living conditions of asylum seekers in Birmingham in housing provided by the Home Office through private housing providers – in this case respondents only named G4S.

"The research came about as a result of our members in Birmingham raising issues around their housing.

"We wanted to find out what the situation was, and if there are problems, to find out whether they are unique or widespread and to come up with recommendations.

"The questionnaires asked participants to describe their accommodation, asked what was good about the accommodation, what were the problems, and what were the recommendations."

Nothing should be provided but the bare necessities.

What a bunch of thankless ingrates.

Give them a parachute.
Fly them over Somalia.
They will have a nice safe landing.
Problem solved.

If there were any sense remaining in England’s ruling class, they’d be housed in pigsties.

Find each and every employee of this organization and drive them into the wilderness at gunpoint.

(from the article) "..a research into the living conditions of asylum seekers in Birmingham in housing provided by the Home Office
through private housing providers – in this case respondents only named G4S."

G4S is an international organization, and even has a presence here in the USa.
For the most part, they are an operations arm of a primarily security organization, here, stateside.

That makes your job easy. Kick the ones that are whining out.

Nothing you will do will ever be enough. You have enough home grown versions of that. There is no need to import.

I’d be perfectly happy to see them resettled here, provided that they’d be willing to live in tents at Camp Grafton, ND.

I played hockey in Grafton, ND. It's doggone cold, but the ingrates are welcome to that ND weather.

I would not waste my time telling the Britons what to do. They turned their backs on Christ, and the consequences for doing so has always been the loss of your country to foreigners. Our work needs to be to ensure we don’t do the same.

They shout get the same housing migrant farm workers got in the 1950s in California and the Southwest. Also demand they work.

Damned unfortunate. Maybe they should seek refuge elsewhere. We’re plumb full up.
