Scratching the authoritarian itch once more
Another display of governmental humanity at Yarl’s Wood…
The UK Border Agency wants to build a detention unit to house 500 single men at Yarl’s Wood and says it will be built to prison standards.
Built to prison standards? In case anybody needed reminding, refugees aren’t criminals. Treating them as such pleases who, exactly?

You’re forgetting your Daily Mail lessons: Prisons are like holiday camps these days, so this is actually about how the damned ZaNuLieBore government of Jocky McOne-Eye is treating illegals to five-star luxury again. They’ll probably all get their own en-suite indoor heated swimming-pool and home cinema system, with Michelin-starred chefs serving them four-course dinners three times a day. So I hear.
Prisons are like holiday camps these days.
Dammit. Of course. I feel such a fool.
“Prisons are like holiday camps these days.”
hmm, they probably are better than some of the places that they intern refugees, (given just shit those have been).
The Great British Public, of course. That’s also why asylum seekers — even when not imprisoned — aren’t allowed to work for three years. After all, they might steal our jobs and our women.
Ain’t democracy wonderful?
