Banned from running a charity for ten year. That will sort her out. Meanwhile the £1.5m will be burning a hole in her pocket.

Get her in the jail and we will have our money back, please.

His family should have had no direct control of the funds - there are plenty of trustworthy retired military personnel who could have formed an oversight committee.

250 million a month it’s costing us taxpayers to house these fighting Muslims and we don’t check their backgrounds…..Captain Tom will be turning in his grave what Britain has turned into now….it’s embarrassing


He definitely wouldn`t be happy after what he fought for.
He fought to defeat fascists and yet here you are our very own home grown version.

Did Brexit not stop the immigration and save us £350m a week? Two birds with one stone I thought?

Also, since when were Holiday Inns and Travelodges classed as 4 star hotels?

`I suspect the thousands of our own indigenous homeless would be content with an upgrade to these types of accommodation`

Maybe they would, but the only way homelessness and asylum seekers are linked is the horrific actions of the government towards both.

Maybe if we let asylum seekers work whilst claims are being processed they would contribute to the economy? Or we could invest in national infrastructure to house them within local communities, or maybe spend a bit more on processing claims so that`s done more efficiently? We could also set up centres in mainland Europe to avoid them having to take such high risks before making a claim?

Just a few suggestions to avoid having to use hotels as last ditch(which are not nice places to stay long term btw). Not that anyone is interested in solutions. Let`s just get angry at the foreigners

While I can understand the frustration of people coming to the UK via questionable means, I don`t see the need to mention their religion. Is the suggestion that it would be fine if they were Christian, Sikh, Hindu, Buddhist? Just the Muslims we have an issue with.

Let`s be frank, the biggest issue in the UK is useless politicians and corrupt media. The lying gits told people Brexit would fix everything and the media supported them. Guess what? It`s not any better and we`re financially worse off. We`ll now likely see more power given to the likes of Reform who couldn`t run a bath.

Anyone who is stupid enough to believe immigrants / asylum seekers are getting fed and receiving four star treatment in the hotels (or any kind of preferential treatment/benefits) the government have paid to house them in deserves a kick up the erse. Don’t be so bloody gullible.

1. Captain Tom is a hero because he enthusiastically killed fascists on sight. He wouldn`t be pandering to them now.

2. British people without homes would rather sleep on the streets than put up with the conditions faced by people seeking asylum here.

The hotel in BPs article is 4 star but far from luxury. The star rating relates to facilities, not the luxury. The hotel in the article is over 50 years old.

There is a valid point though. We shouldn`t be using privately owned hotels to essentially imprison people while we sort out processing. Suggestions like daft boats won`t work but surely there are spare government buildings that could be utilised for a lower cost?

I think everyone is agreed on that, same with homelessness. The reason hotels are used at all is due to our failures to deal with national infrastructure investment. Indeed it`s been cut back with land/property being sold off.

It`s politicians being unable to look beyond the next election. I sell my house and start renting my bank balance looks healthier at first glance. But it`s a poor long term decision, and when you keep making short term decisions there`s severe long term consequences.

It`s all part of a big swizz isn`t it? The hotel companies are coining it in from these government contracts, to the tune of about 145 quid per night, per person. They are being paid well over the odds for what it`s costing them. These are shabby, old rooms that would need renovating before they could get them on booking com. The people that stay in these places aren`t living in the lap of luxury, I know someone that volunteers to help some of the people in settling in. They get food, but it`s rubbish quality and insufficient to feed a human properly, we are in no way getting value for money. It`s all a big money making exercise, taking our tax and putting it into private hands

It is perhaps germane to this discussion that it has been the policy of successive uniparty governments for at least the past 25 years that all small boat arrivals must be housed in at least 3-star hotels.

It is hardly surprising many will be housed in 4-star and above.

There could be many reasons why they would prefer England to France... For example, Do they speak French or English? Do they have a community from their home country in England? Do they have family or friends in England? Do they believe they have a better chance of getting a job in england?

There`s a clear issue with illegal immigration in the UK. There`s no simple solution but one that is already being implemented unintentionally is to make the UK undesirable as a place to live.

This is happening in the Bathgate area near a hotel that has been set aside for immigrants, older folk are feeling it too as the guys often walk about in big groups.
It`s all men.

So immigrants in Bathgate caused bother by *checks notes* "walking around in groups"? Honestly...

If the allegations of grooming and hanging around playparks are true then I`m surprised none of the vigilante groups who hunt paedophiles have caught them. They seem to catch white men incredibly easily (as do the police based on the Press reports). Is this an example of two tier paedophile hunting?

Are you okay? I don`t want this to sound patronising but you seem to be going a bit OTT. I`m only asking questions. I apologise if comparing your to Yaxley-Lennon was upsetting but your post sounded exactly like the tripe he comes out with. The issue with the likes of him is he spouts things that are likely partly true but then he sprinkles in some unsubstantiated nonsense meaning it`s then disregarded completely.

Was it grooming or photography you witnessed? Regardless, did you report it to the police?

Filming kids coming out the local school, twice reported to Police who informed that they weren`t doing anything wrong, which may be the case, however it`s still uncomfortable.

You`ll appreciate you can be married to someone of a different race and still be racist. That`s irrelevant though as I never called you racist.

I`m guessing the police response relates to filming in a public space, but aren`t there rules about filming kids when that appears to be the sole intent of the filming? What about the grooming? That`s much more serious. If the police are ignoring reports of child grooming you should raise that with your local MSP and MP.

There are definitely cases of paedophilia and grooming in the UK. These should be dealt with and not brushed under the carpet as is often suggested. However, people making unsubstantiated allegations are effectively the boy who cried wolf - when it really does happen no-one believes them.

We actually had a local example of misinformation in Dunfermline this week. Story going round on social media that a guy had tried to snatch a kid. The dad was quite understandably upset and seeking to identify the guy. Turned out it was perfectly innocent. Kid had fallen, guy had gone to help. Despite that, we were close to a lynch mob being formed with people suggesting the guy was a migrant being housed in Premier Inn. That appears to also be incorrect.

The tensions are there. It`s just a matter of time before an innocent Muslim is killed. We`re fortunate in Scotland that most immigrants are essentially forced to integrate as we don`t have large concentrations of people not born in Scotland.

That`s the way things are now. I would probably have to think twice about my natural instinct to help, if I seen a kid that had fallen off it`s bike possibly better just to turn away and let the kid bleed, than end up on Fife Jammers with everyone calling you a nonce and turning up at yer house, to get you moved on

The alleged attackers have rightfully been remanded awaiting trial. Youth court though as both are 14. That is good news.

Now to the not so good - what on earth posses people to torch numerous houses for 2 nights straight?

One house that was attacked had a women and 3 children in it hiding in the attick. One that was set alight had a pregnant woman inside.

This isn’t vigilante behaviour, its down right racial hate violence. The irony after The Troubles is either staggering or their excuse to ignorance.

Anyone thinking this is a good thing or something that our country needs locking up themself IMO.

Sexual assault is bad, I don`t think anyone who isn`t a complete wrong un could argue otherwise.

But, if this was the response to every sexual assault we wouldn`t have a single building in the country that hadn`t been destroyed. People are very clearly using the victim as an excuse for racist violence, and that doesn`t help a single sexual assault victim nor does it prevent future assaults.

Does anyone agree with the 250 million a month it’s costing us taxpayers to house, feed and keep these illegal immigrants? They get a set amount of cash per month to live on!

They are making the streets unsafe gathering in groups and shouting at walkers by…mostly sexual slurs at woman…if this was your girlfriend or wife I’m sure you would be concerned?

Nobody can defend what these illegal migrants did in Ireland and although I disagree with the disorder British/Irish people have to stand up for themselves.

Again before I get called Tommy Robinson the 2nd it’s illegal immigrants I’m against and not migrants(I don’t like that name tbh) who come over or who have settled here with their families and work in Britain.
There is something not right with these young men getting of the boats every day with their iPhones etc and we just house them…

I’m only thinking about our children’s future so call me a racist/facist all you want.


Never mind illegal immigrants Alter ego, what about the court case today involving Rochdale residents grooming and sexually abusing girls as young as 10. Sickening stuff, no wonder the far right is growing. The perpetrators of these crimes are bringing it on their communities

FWIW GG from what I`ve seen these were initially meant as protection elements.

Non-rioting locals were trying to use UJ to protect their homes and non-Romanian residents were trying to distance themselves(naively IMO)from the riots by declaring their nationality give the initial spark seemed against Romanians.

I don`t think that was a good idea as it seems inevitably the racism would expand beyond one nationality, but if your obviously not native I can see why it seemed like a worthwhile desperate idea.

The misinformation displayed here by some posters repeating the MSM disinformation about the unrest in Ballymena is exactly what has led to the nights of violence we have seen there.

The alleged issues have not been caused by Romanians, but by Roma gypsies from Romania and Bulgaria. The origin of word "Roma" has nothing to do with Romania which seems to have confused some on here.

There have been multiple alleged sexual attacks linked to this group as well as alleged drug dealing and alleged prostitution and sex trafficking.

The things these Roma have been accused of in Ballymena are also leveled at Roma communities in both Romania and Bulgaria.

The latest incident which involved a 13 year old girl being allegedly lured by two 14 year olds to a house with a garage where she was allegedly sexually assaulted by an older man in this garage that had nothing but a mattress on the floor.

I have seen video of the young 13 year old alleged victim`s father speak, he is a black gentleman.

While this latest incident seems to have been the tipping point, the anger has been building for years with similar alleged incidents happening multiple times and anyone highlighting them called all the ists and ismims and ignored by police and politicians for fear of being branded "racist". A rather similar story that will no doubt be revealed in the upcoming grooming gangs inquiry.

I condemn the violence that we have seen in this town over the last few nights and I can also recognise the feeling of helplessness and being ignored by authorities.

Ah, cheers, pars4life. I seem to have got hold of the wrong end of the stick if what you`ve posted is correct. Like you say, if these notices were put up by the residents in these houses, it was very naive, but perfectly understandable.

Still and all, it`s a very regrettable situation. The behaviour of some folk in Ballymena is indefensible.

Yes words do matter.

That CNN "fact check" has already been debunked.

Yes, the mice were "transgenic", hardly surprising when most lab mice are, they contain the genetic material of other animals.

Yes these transgenic mice were given cross-sex hormones in various experiments.

On the Ballymena situation it`s worth being clear that it`s fair to assume that someone who speaks Romanian as their first language is Romanian. They may also be Roma who happens to be from Romania.

Regardless, it`s worth being clear that the man alleged to have been involved was released with no charge. The allegation is that two 14 year olds forced a 13 year old to give them oral sex. The race or ethnicity of those involved is irrelevant. If that did happen, those two boys should be punished (preferably by having their peckers chopped off IMO!).

As has been mentioned, the response is extreme. We regularly see or hear of homes being targeted where there`s a known sex offender present. There was a situation in Dunfermline just a couple of weeks ago where a home had its windows panned in over three nights of protests. What we`re seeing in Ballymena is far more extreme and is using this current case as an excuse to release clear tension that already existed in the community.

If this is against the Roma community, that makes barely 3% of the population of Ballymena but that`s not to say they can or can`t be involved in criminal acts. I`ve never been to Ballymena and don`t know anyone in Ballymena but do know based on local experience how easy it is for situations to be exaggerated and flames fanned by idiots on social media (see: Fife Jammers).

If there`s a perception of immigrants (illegal or otherwise) being given houses over people in greater need, receiving benefits they shouldn`t be or a blind eye being turned to criminal acts, that all needs investigated. Panning in windows and starting fires displays local frustration and impatience, but it won`t get things sorted any quicker.

"The alleged issues have not been caused by Romanians, but by Roma gypsies from Romania and Bulgaria. The origin of word "Roma" has nothing to do with Romania which seems to have confused some on here."

It is confusing terminology largely because Romania (the modern country) developed ties historically with the Romans over nearly 2 centuries during the second and third centuries after Dacia was conquered and occupied.

The Romanian language is derived from Latin one of the so called Romance languages.

So let’s help British people(black,white etc)that were born in Britain instead of the millions we are paying housing illegal immigrants up in hotels etc…Do you really think it’s ok to house these men that we don’t have a clue where they are from as they get rid of their passports as soon as they are in Britain so they can’t be vetted?
Where are the woman and children with them? I’m sure you can invite your families over unless you earn and contribute BUT they are all enjoying themselves in hotels with NHS staff on standby to care for their needs…..And you stand by this?? As in the title do think if captain Tom was still alive and fought for this country he would like to see what is happening?
Another 8000 illegals entered Britain in the past 4 days and people think this is right??



I dont care what your nationality is. If you need help ill give what I can, and my qualifying criteria will not be where you were unfortunate enough to be born.

You need to stop listening to your extreme right wing propaganda roasters and care a bit more about all people.

Im pretty sure that if you were born in a country that persecuted you for your lifestyle or religeous beliefs, or a poverty stricken country with a corrupt government, you would want to find a better life.

There are folk who were born in this country that I would happily trade to make space for people who are so desperate to escape their circumstances that they would risk their lives to do so.

I dont care what colour or religion the are.

What`s the source for 8000 illegal immigrants in 4 days? The average for a YEAR is 36,000 so 8000 in 4 days suggests something has gone terribly wrong.

See this is easy, avoid the difficult conversations by branding people racist or (insert relevant "phobe" slur)
There are some truly horrible videos coming out of Ireland with refugees threatening people, whilst racism should be resisted of course, there is another side to all of this that the public are being shamed into keeping quiet about.

Well, I`m regarding the whole public discourse as using racist and (far) right wing relatively interchangeably.

There has been reference on this thread to racist comments (on Fife Jammers) and listening to the views of the right wing press.

I think that is pretty much what we`re seeing in the public debate just now. Even mentioning this as a problem does seem to provoke a response from some quarters that it`s racist to even mention this. And I agree that it`s not healthy to shove our heads in the sand.

From what I`m seeing in terms of the footage, we`re paying a few hundred million to the French so they can watch gangs take the p*** and make a lot of money. I suspect the reason we`re seeing a lot of young males coming across is it seems to be the survival of the fittest and they`re taking the places of the women and kids on the boats as they can get there more easily.

I can`t quite work out why they can`t address the folk running the boats. They are apparently running them tens of miles along the cost now to pick folk up so I don`t understand why a French police or naval boat can`t stop them.

The boats ARE an issue but there`s no legal way of stopping them. The only solution would be a massive big fence in the sea with a couple of gates to let ferries in. But these men (it`s 85-90% men) will then be jumping on lorries.

You can make life in the UK unappealing but I`m already struggling to see what appeals to illegal immigrants about life in the UK. Crap weather, the people generally won`t like you, crap benefits and you`ll stick waiting to be processed forever.

How is illegals a right wing term? An illegal immigrant is used very widely to state that a person does not have legal permission to enter the UK but has still done so.

Does that mean legal is a left wing term?

ETA : it might be worth looking at this. Unfortunately without clear statistics we're collectively going to get into a debate based on individual assumptions. A sample of one could massively skew things.

The two things that I feel are definitely true .... big corps are making a lot of money out of this mess and there's a real chance that some of those complaining about stuff could very well be aiding the corporate behaviour that's supporting some of it.

ETA2: It wouldn't let me post a link to the Essex Police Braintree page which reported they had caught someone delivering food in a car on the wrong side of the road, with no UK driving license or right to work or even legal right to be here.

Those people are legal migrants who went via a passport check. What`s being referred to here are people who purposefully discarded ID and arrived "illegally".

The biggest issue that no-one talks about is these guys are hanging around town centres because there`s nothing else for them to do and processing takes too long. Rather than making hotel owners wealthy, why not invest in PROPER processing centres so this can be done quicker. Why not develop a legitimate form of requesting asylum in the UK? The guys arriving in the back of lorries must be desperate but the ones arriving on boats and paying smugglers must have decent amounts of cash.

The key thing though is these are people, not just numbers. If you want to solve illegal immigration you need to understand WHY people are coming here illegally in the first place. It certainly isn`t for the weather! The only rational reason is the English language but it`s not that hard to learn Spanish, French, German etc.

I thought the main changes via https://www.paragonlaw.co.uk/resources/illegal-migration-act-2024-update

didn`t make it less illegal to rock up without appropriate documentation, just that we would do a bit in the UK to review the cases in a timely fashion rather than horsing then off to Rwanda.

It does feel to me like we`re a soft touch on this front, and as nation we`ve ended up having an argument that could have been avoided if we had decent processes that were managed properly.

It shouldn`t be too hard to identify someone even if they are from the back of beyond. Right now I, as a Joe Bloggs,.could take a photo of someone on here and put it into AI and you would be found. Ever posted on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter? Or maybe a friend did. If I can do that, a government system should be able to do it and more. They`ll have access to passport systems. Can`t find you? Then you`re held in a processing centre until found.

This stuff isn`t hard. You`re telling me we can afford to pay hotels millions of pounds but we can`t build a processing centre in the south of England? Must be plenty old MOD sites with land to build it? Or, as mentioned, build in France. That would probably be better for people rather than being stuck in a hotel with no-one really monitoring what`s going on.

Nice one Dandy, though I`ll point out a couple of issues:

1. Never called you racist. I suggested you were a Yaxley-Lennon due to the claims you made of people being intimidated by immigrants walking on the street, something that is frankly laughable. I apologise if you felt I was suggesting you were racist, which is not something I believe of you.

2. You`ve fired out far more abuse at me than I have at you. I don`t take it personally and genuinely hope you`re doing well, but you need to be mindful of the forum rules around abuse.

3. As mentioned a number of times, my issue is with people exaggerating. This isn`t exclusive to you though so don`t take it that way. The reason I have an issue with it is it means that when truly awful things happen (and they DO happen!) it means that people can turn round and say it`s just another porky pie because of the mistruths told previously.

Genuinely wish you well and I`m not seeking to annoy you though I appreciate it clearly am!

“The claim that “2,000 illegal immigrants arrive in the UK every week” doesn’t stem from any official source—it’s an off‑hand calculation often used to dramatize Channel arrivals, but it’s misleading. Here’s a clearer breakdown:

🔍 Origins of the “2,000 a week” claim
• This figure loosely stems from dividing annual detected small‑boat crossings (e.g. ~100,000/year) by 52 weeks—an oversimplified assumption.
• But official Home Office / ONS data shows far lower numbers actually recorded.  

📊 What the data actually says

Small‑boat (irregular) arrivals:
• In the 12 months to March 2025: 38,023 people arrived by small boat 
• In the year ending December 2024: 43,630 irregular arrivals detected 

That works out to:
• ~730 per week (38,000 / 52) or
• ~840 per week (43,600 / 52)

All irregular arrivals (including those by air, port, and undetected):
• Year ending June 2024: 38,784 detected 
• Year ending December 2024: 43,630 detected 

🧮 Summary: The real weekly rate

Timeframe
Annual detected irregular arrivals
Weekly average
Mar 2024–Mar 2025
38,023
~730
Jan 2024–Dec 2024
43,630

So, rather than 2,000 illegal migrants per week, the data indicates closer to 800–850 detected arrivals per week. This count only includes people who are caught/detected—not undetected arrivals or those who overstayed visas.”

It’s not like a 1 way boat trip for illegals for us to catch them…then you have to think the illegals that go and stay with their fellow members that have not been detected and what convictions they have?
Folk have had enough now and if this carries on there is going to be major problems…Bring all these religions/3rd world the way they live and then we have it..streets filled with everything.


Incorrect - did you not read the bit that says air, port (which is small boats) and undetected for the full total per year? So nowhere near 2000 a week - pulled the relevant piece out for you;

“All irregular arrivals (including those by air, port, and undetected):
•Year ending June 2024: 38,784 detected 
•Year ending December 2024: 43,630 detected ”

While those sentences end with the word detected it includes estimates for undetected when you validate in the supporting link at fullfact.org

Laugh now but apparently within a couple of months they`ll have taken over and that wee deli in Aberdour will be a halal supermarket. Mock if you will... 🙄

I`m more worried about the immigrants from england to be honest.

Whenever I am up in the Highlands and pop into a pub or whatever there is always some english immigrants bemoaning the fact that, "it`s not the england I once knew" and telling their tale of how they have been taken over down there.

I don`t know if `racist` is the right word but it`s certainly discriminatory to refer to everyone who comes here as `illegal` and suggest they spend their time in the lap of luxury and patrolling the streets causing trouble.

The last three posts gave me a genuine lol. One giving a commentary on the vernacular of the public discourse, one with views about the individual impact that life`s challenges may have resulted in for an individual poster, and one giving some clear feedback on a specific posters line of argument.😀

I look forward to AE`s return in a few months to see how accurate or not their forecasts were...

Well well guys and Buffy..just didn’t want to say you were a guy or whatever nobody can say…what I will do is come back every week and report from the government on how many illegal immigrants have entered Britain? And we are paying for their 4 star hotels, NHS nurses making sure they are ok and they get a bit of Pocket money to spend when they are out and about…now have any of these individuals been checked coming into Britain? If not and they can’t prove who they are then they need held as could be a terroism threat etc….but hey ho put them in hotels with cleaning/nhs services and let them roam about in groups all over towns/villages causing problems..
Anyway I’ll be back next week with another amount of illegals entering
…I’m really surprised that folk can’t see what is happening but I’ll be called a racist,facist,bigot ant Tommy Robinson lover….wait and see!!

To be honest with you, having read this thread, and your "jokes" on the Joke Forum, you ARE a racist. There`s no other way to put it, no way to dress it up, or try and give you the benefit of the doubt. You ARE a racist.

Not only that, you come across a fairly intellectually challenged. It`s a shame, I do feel quite sorry for you, but you are exactly the target market for people like Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson. They aim their message straight at people like you, chip on your shoulder because life hasn`t turned out how you wanted and rather than own your failure, you want to put the blame on someone.

You are being played like a fool

When AE comes back in a couple of months, what is the expected state of Dunfermline at this point? Are we talking a few guys staying in Premier Inn or are we talking Life being converted into a Mosque? (It is owned by a Muslim family afterall). Maybe the Kingsgate is renamed the al-Malik gate?

AE, for the good of your sanity I`d suggest cooling your jets on this one.

With the reduction in aid budgets (ironically something that most on we must lower immigration side of the argument would also support) we`re only going to see more folk trying to cross the channel. Of course, the focus in the UK is on folk crossing the channel, but it`s simply a specific example of illegal immigration that all developed countries are seeing.

I do actually think some of Rwanda scheme is likely a good solution. At least it`s better than encouraging folks to take the risk to come here for some free medical care.

So 740 a week then - you must be pleased that it’s much lower than 2000 a week then 👍🏼
Sounds like you really need a holiday with your hotel fixation though - maybe you should cram 5 folk into your hotel room and see how wonderful it is.
