Absolute disgrace.

In Southampton (as in other places across the Country, I know full well we are not unique) we have a number of people who have been denied leave to stay, are not receiving any benefit and have received notification that the Government can not afford to send them home to their country. They will have to find there own way back as thats how they got here... oh and leave their children here until they get back to Somalia/Afganistan/Croatia/Wherever and then they can come back and collect their children.. WHAT? WHAT? Makes no friggin sense whatsoever!! Our Charity is then asked in the meantime to re-house these individuals which we are willing to do, but we don't get any benefits or rent to pay for anything (this includes food/bedding etc before we actually think about rent/tax blah blah)... sooooo where do these people end up, on the streets... it's an absolute frigging disgrace.

Hope that makes sense.. I've just come out of a meeting about it and I'm cross...
