Mair Godley is distressed for both the asylum seekers and residents about the situation all have found themselves in without having any choice in the matter.

She said: “We are all dumbfounded by the speed with which this has happened. The Home Office don’t seem to understand that this is not just about us, it’s about two communities of human beings, both as important as each other.

“We have asked the guards on the base if we can talk to the asylum seekers but they just say no, we have to ask the Home Office. We want to find a way to bring the two communities together. The Home Office has made this place look like a stalag.”
Rather approprite, then, Mair. Since stalags were used to house prisoners of war. And a war is undoubtedly what we're in. And every war, it seems, has to have its Quislings...
