Brighton and Hove City Councillor Michael Impkin-Leissner, who is German, said he was appalled to hear Europeans were being targeted by immigration officers.
"If this is what the British Government is doing it will destroy more relationships with Europe.
"If there are no criminal reasons and these people have committed no criminal offence - then this sort of action simply fuels hatred.
"This is absolutely unacceptable.
"In Germany we would never send Britons home like that.
"This is yet another of the very sad effects of Brexit coming through."Good lord! What are they doing?!? Rounding people up to send to labour camps?
Ten rough sleepers are to be deported after being found living on the streets of Brighton and Hove last week, The Argus revealed.Oh. Is that all?
Argus readers also raised concerns that the Government strategy could mean that Irish members of the city's street community could also face the same fate.Yes, please do! Who'd object to this?
Oh. Hang on:
Richard Williams, chairman of Brighton refugee charity Sanctuary on Sea, said it was "absurd" to say anyone comes to the UK with the intention of sleeping rough.As absurd as thinking maybe you just don't want the sheep to start disappearing from your flock, eh, shepherd?
'Street Community'??
ReplyDeleteSeriously?
Sheeiiit!
It is interesting how so many things are being blamed on Brexit before any actual disengaging from the EU has even happened. Anyway, if Brexit leads to us no longer importing tramps, isn't that a good thing?

Comments from tunnel-visioned, single issue, warriors who continue to ignore the wishes of the majority of people who voted regarding our continuing membership of a European dictatorship, do not hold much interest from me. Foreign nationals lived and worked in the UK before the EU and will no doubt continue to do so after we leave. The big emphasis is on 'worked'. Any one who comes to this country with the intention of being a parasite should not be either allowed in, or allowed to stay. We have enough home grown parasites, thank you.

Sadly so. Even worse parasites than the tramps!

It's nearly (but not quite) overtaken 'Thatcher!' in the SJW Hall of Blame...

Spot on! It's going to make zero difference to the people we want here.
