God bless you for that testimony.

If only refugees had it so good...

'I Sympathise with refugees now' Behave! You were failed consistently by your local council and govt repeatedly for the last 4 decades. Anyone with an ounce of nous knows that building houses on flood plains means having the correct infrastructure is critical. They failed you.

Then go travel to Uganda and see if they roll out the red carpet and feed you for free.

Hope this fella is prepared for the inevitable attack from extreme Leavers and Remainers... If I'm honest, I'd happily swap double the amount of refugees in to the UK just to get Brextremists from either side out. Brextremist - willfully bends reality to suit their agenda.

Nice propaganda you got there, Would be a shame if everyone knew you were talking shit- OH, SHIT! Everyone does know 😂

Just getting comfy for the comments
