STOP THE USE OF NORTHEYE FOR HOUSING 1200 IMMIGRANTS
The Issue
The UK government is proposing to use the old prison called Northeye to house up to 1200 immigrants!!
This area is unsuitable due to it being in a residential area, and also Bexhill on Sea is a seaside resort and small town and this sort of development is not in keeping with the area. Although it was a cat C prison in the past it has been closed in 1992, and a riot took place in 1986 where 40% of the prison was destroyed. which would be a worry if the immigrants were to riot and with the possibility of escape making the town unsafe, like has happened at other centres!!
I propose that the government reconsider this move and Huw Merriman takes up our concerns and get this unsuitable plan removed
