OK so I need to get off the internet in a minute because this isn't helping anyone. But I'm trying to understand. Lots of people are talking about the cost of all of these 'illegals' (who are not breaking the law). So I looked up who runs the centre (who are breaking the law). So. It's run by Mitie Care and Custody. Their directors are registered at The Shard, that famously cheap building in London Bridge mitie.com/all-services/c… (FYI Manston is called a removal centre, which tells you a lot)

The comments below the articles on the Dover terrorist arrack are a disgrace. Our neighbour agrees with them: ‘if they hadn’t come it wouldn’t have happened’.
They somehow believe that those sleeping on cardboard, outside, in winter, with children, have ‘more than most’???! Which is clearly not true. Conditions at Manston are illegal. But closing all legal routes is a policy choice that allows you to criminalise & imprison arrivals.
