http://uk.news.yahoo.com/tcm_ireland/20080819/tie-asylum-seekers-on-hunger-strike-at-l-6c17b45.html

What do they want our countries to do for them???

Answer 1

That should save the taxpayer a bob or two, especially the price of food at the moment.  :)

Answer 2

that is a burning question and applies to everything what happens when everyone sits on street corners playing cards or praying all day who does the work then to provide food on the plate no good looking up at the sky  then on page whatever its to late its time the crutches were removed ive asked myself time and time again if we convert to this or convert to that bet all the isms would disappear rapidly and return to the day of the dog pc would be a thing of the past  

Answer 3

All they want is a nice detached house i the country with a swimming pool.

Answer 4

this question was on the other week . let them eat dog shite we dont need all this riff-raff no wonder the country is in such a mess

Answer 5

That's a very valid point.

The answer can be summed up in two words - "let them" !

Or even in one word - "good" !

Answer 6

How about we load them in a container and dump it in the north sea.

I say let them starve. It'll be 200 less asylum seekers for tax payer's money to go towards. I just can't believe how rude and ungrateful some people can be. They're probably living like kings compared to where they came from and they're still finding things to moan about.

Answer 7

If they want to go on hunger strike, they should just let them. We've given them asylum in a safer country than their own, and they're still complaining.

Answer 8

These people are here LEGALLY. They have claimed asylum. which is their right and are awaiting a decision. If they are being abused at the centre they should be able to complain and maybe going on hunger strike is the most effective way.

I think people here are very unchristian!

Answer 9

let them starve

they've got a roof over their head, clean water and food (which clearly isn't good enough for them)

Surely that's got to be better than whatever it is they're running away from  

Answer 10

I am oh so upset by this story, Well.I'll just have to have an extra sandwich and think "bollocks to them "

Answer 11

i think we should send those liars home, our country is too liberal

Ireland for the Irish

Answer 12

They shouldn't even be here, so it's like f*ck off complaining.  Send them back and see how they complain now.

Giving the ungrateful f*ckers human rights - bad idea.

Answer 13

wow what a mess of things..

Answer 14

If they're not satisfied, they should be deported, simple as that, they get enough from the state as it is.

Answer 15

They wouldn't be complaining if they were genuine asylum seekers.  

Answer 16

Other countries do nothing for them, I have seen this in Spain, as Mrs GC says they have their basic needs cared for, which is more than the many homeless UK born people on our big cities streets.
