        And you wonder why the traditional working class voter is deserting Labour. They LIVE with the problems inflicted by the liberal elite

      Keep poor & marginalised competing against each other to distract from fact that rich Tory #NastyParty are responsible for austerity & cuts.

        A lot of the Tory areas are probably quiet country type places, would they have the facilities that cities/major towns have?

        I agree. My son relocated from a Shire to the North West as there are fewer prospects in leafy rural areas.

        The Tories will have MP's in some major towns/cities too though but we need more info on are they not doing their fare share on this.

        Doesn't this say more about labour controlling cities where most ppl coming into the country go- asylum seekers or otherwise?

        its a deliberate policy brought in around 2012 i think - so coalition policy (remember the FibDems)

      I think it would be much harder for an asylum seeker to integrate/find a job in a leafy Tory shire.

      This says Labour-led councils are more suitable for asylum seekers, large 'multicultural' towns with facilities (mosques translators etc)

      Would be interesting to know how things would turn out, if asylum seekers, the hungry looking for foodbanks, were based in Chipping Norton
