O/T Rother District to get 2,000 asylum seekers?

Disgusting that the former RAF base should be used, no consideration given the local residents not to mention the history of the place!

Yeah it is, but why should our towns be subject to them instead? If the immigrates had been house in the leafy villages of Oxfordshire, Gloucester and Wiltshire etc etc, this would have been sorted out years ago.

Plenty of old military bases around all of those places you named plus many other “nice” locations but they’ve chosen one of the most historical air bases in the world (the former home of the Red Arrows & 617 Squadron ie The Dam busters).
