Well this should shut up those who say these boats are inhumane. How about we do the same for our own homeless?

The homeless don't see these types of accomodations

Blimey, far more than we give our own homeless, no doubt itll be set alight in the not so distant future in protest for not getting a 5 star hotel or a council home

Nicer than most of the care homes i go to see patients at that spend thousands of pounds a week to stay at.

[jimzo]

fiver says they destroy it in a month .

Looks like a very civilised environment in which to house asylum seekers while their case is processed. Let’s not forget what the majority of these poor souls have been through to get this far.

Homeless people would give anything to be put on that barge, gets them off the streets and actually makes them feel like a human

[jameshensby]

What a great Idea so can anyone stay here or is it just foreigners ?? Just thinking of the many homeless brits 🤷‍♂️

[leetbawden]

[devancebowen]

They're Jihadists, not "asylum seekers".

[doctorkhumalo]

It's crazy to think that these people colonised near enough the entire planet and to this day still have territories on foreign lands, I suppose they entered those territories legally so that's where the difference is I guess.

[guff]

What disgraceful luxury. To think Britons are discriminately banned BY THEIR VERY OWN GOVERNMENT.

[applepie]

Cruel and Criminal and destined for problems. If I was an NHS I would not want to work on one of these.

Once the platoons start swinging from the pipework it won't look like that for very long 😅
