<\/p>\nIt is reported that there are over 30,000 asylum seekers in UK hotels (June 2025).\u00a0 You may wish to know that early this morning a coach arrived at the Manor Hotel in Datchet.\u00a0 A significant number of persons left the hotel and boarded the coach – which then departed towards Slough.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now here is a thought:\u00a0 Although it appears that the steady stream of people arriving in small boats – and asylum seekers in hotels – are problems, I hold a slightly different view.<\/p>\n
In my opinion the small boats and asylum seekers are only two symptoms arising from the far greater problem of governments failing to act on a global scale.\u00a0 The unwillingness (or inability) of national governments – working together – to consider, to agree and to take effective action is a real problem that has not only been evident but also inviting ever-increasing mass migration for decades?\u00a0 Strengthening borders, targeting smugglers and sending people home cannot be sufficient to stem the flow.\u00a0 Surely there is an urgent need to adjust the balance of those forces that drive a person or family to leave their own country – rather than attract them to stay?\u00a0 And that applies as much at home as abroad.<\/p>\n
