Pupils resort to wearing sunglasses in classrooms with faulty lighting
Schools are stuck in expensive private finance initiative contracts, but companies are failing to fix buildings
"More than 900 schools in England were built through PFI contracts after John Major’s Conservative government launched the scheme in the 1990s, supported by Labour. The contracts were expanded under Tony Blair’s premiership, costing taxpayers billions in inflated repayment costs."

In the UK, asylum seekers who are destitute are provide d with free accommodation, including utility bills and council tax, and a weekly cash allowance to meet their essential living needs. Unauthorised migrants, who are largely ineligible for publicly funded support, may still have access to some public services like state education and NHS services. While they may not be entitled to benefits, they can still utilize some essential services

In the context of asylum seekers in the UK, those in full-board accommodation like hotels do not typically pay for electricity or gas, as these are usually included in the cost of the accommodation. Additionally, they receive a weekly cash allowance for essential living needs like clothing, travel, and medicine, but this does not cover the cost of utilities

we should have 5 million buy then as there not going to do jack shite to stop them its all bull shite

As of December 2021, the UK had 869,976 active installations registered on the Central FIT Register, with 98.88% being solar photovoltaic (PV) and 95.42% being domestic installations, according to Ofgem's Annual Report. At the same time, the total installed capacity on the scheme was 6.43GW

so my system will be end of life 2035-40 so there will be millions of solar panels going to land fill buy then

Single people get access to hostel accommodation, and its the families only who can get a flat, though it can be anywhere in the UK, they dont get a choice there.
And yes they also get an allowance of £5.83/day which tbf isnt that much. It's not far off the daily homeless allowance i got back in the 80's which was £4.20
(Asylum seekers get 110Euros/week in Europe)

Calling their accommodation a 'hotel' is really disingenuous, as it might have begun its life as a 3 or 4 star hotel, but all its original facilities have been stripped out. So no bar, sports/swimming facilities, and certainly no silver service a la carte restaurant.

But it's in the interest of the likes of GB news or the Mail not to send a camera/news team down to show exactly what the accommodation looks like in these places. Well I suppose they need to create their narrative don't they.

All it is is just a shell building with 4 to 6 beds in each room and a bit of communal space.
Food is hit or miss, with reports of it being low quality in many cases.

Why does anyone need asylum from France?

I have NEVER ever seen any kind of attempt to explain this.

There may be people in France who would like to come here? I don't care about that. I'm surprised that anyone but a bleeding heart fool would care.

If you and I tried to go to Canada illegally, we'd be hunted down and thrown out. Same for New Zealand. Same for Australia. Same for the USA. Same for ANY country which is a desirable destination for mass migration. They all make serious attempts to find and expel people who abuse border controls or laws relating to who can stay there and set up home. They all have migration schemes to encourage and retain foreign people who are of value to them. You can go there if you fit their desirable criteria.

Many years ago I would have liked to go to Canada. I looked at the criteria and saw that I did not fit. Did I sneak in on a visitor's visa or in a crate? Certainly not. I treat the law seriously.

No one arriving by irregular means in this country on the south coast or via Ireland (which I suspect is a widely abused crossing) can claim to be fleeing from their point of departure in the EU as an asylum seeker. It is a big lie. No one in France or in any other EU country is in fear of any kind of harm of the sort that the concept of asylum is meant to cover. Anyone who doesn't accept that is completely delusional. I'm having none of it. Facts are facts. Nowhere in the EU is a place you need to flee from so arriving here in secret or in a small boat is a try on and a crime. If you want me to quote the statute which says it is a criminal offence to arrive here without the necessary paperwork and permissions, I can. I did so before and of course the usual defenders of these criminal advantage takers had no response that wasn't utter twaddle and nonsense.

It is not OUR problem that the EU has ridiculous borderless rules within its boundaries. and that it doesn't protect its own borders. They let these people in and let them in from safe countries where they could if they were genuinely in fear, have asked for asylum. The EU's inability to protect and defend itself in ANY dimension, due to their flaccid liberalism, is THEIR problem. We have no duty to help them out in ANY way - especially after the way they behaved towards us since BREXIT. 'FK them!', I say - and I'd take the same view of defending them against the Russians or anyone else, as they now seem to want since they are in many cases realising they could do nothing to stop Putin from messing with them. Now they are being rather more polite to us. Too late - in my view. The idea that we would need to give way on fishing to be allowed to participate in a European defence pact is the biggest joke of all. It's like as if Churchill in 1941 had said the the Americans, 'Well Mr Roosevelt, if you are to be allowed to come here and help us against the Naaazis, you will first have to let our fishermen have access to the great cod fishery on the Grand Banks!' Ridiculous.

Why does anyone need asylum from France?

I have NEVER ever seen any kind of attempt to explain this.

They only transit in France, like Spain, Italy or Belarus. Their destination is the UK.
For many years, like you, I didn't get it why they don't choose Germany where life would be definitely good if not better. Then I understood that they choose the UK because they speak enough English to get by and our government here in the UK actually like to have them, more than other countries like Denmark or the Netherlands, at least until now, to fill in the 1 million or so job vacancies where 9 million of economically inactive Britons don't want to take.

Passed 800 miles on the £252 bargain of the century. It still has a range of at least 18 miles on its maximum assist level, in warm weather, which is the same as when it was new last August. I noticed a drop in range during the winter when the temperature was around four degrees, and wondered if the battery was just rubbish, but it isn't. It only has 8.5 Amp hours so all is good. It could last over 25 miles on the middle assist level back when new and 18 and a bit in high. I have never ridden it until it cut off, but those ranges are really almost at empty. It isn't an expedition bike, but for knocking about the locality it is perfect for me, for all its shortcuts. No nonsense and effective and no frills, but what can you want for £250 with a years guarantee?

I changed the brakes and pedals earlier for better ones. Nothing else wrong with it.

Best buy ever as far as I am concerned.

I'd take the lash to those lazy basta rds. Apparently, every week tens of thousands of twenty somethings are claiming PIP as new claimants, these days because for some reason they are 'mentally ill'. This is not happening in other countries so we have a problem here and I am glad to see the government are aware of and are going to attack that problem.

Back in my grandfather's day they had a way of discouraging that. If it was peacetime they just starved, and if it was war time, they put them up against a wall.

By WW2 they were calling it 'lack of moral fibre', but now we have young and old royals and all kinds of 'Slebs' telling them that it is OK to be mental! You just couldn't make it up. I often wonder what my old grandfather Sweeney would have said about it. He was shot on the Somme through teh chest on the 16th July 1916 aged twenty because he thought he had a duty to stand up for something more than his own feelings. He was never the same again losing five ribs to an intractable pre - antibiotic infection.

Anxiety and stress??? I wonder how he felt that night before he knew he was going over the top at the start of that battle. I wonder how much anxiety and stress he was experiencing as he waited for the whistle that morning and as he started walking forward into German machine gun fire while all around him his comrades were falling to the hail of bullets and then he was hit himself right through the chest and in the thigh.
