If anyone out there knows BANKSY, please ask him paint a mural at a children's asylum centre.

For those outside the UK, Robert Jenrick MP considered paintings of cartoon characters too welcoming at Kent centre for lone children arriving in UK.

This is part of our Far Right govt's 'hostile environment' for those seeking asylum in the UK.

How depraved must one be to want to suck even a trifling amount of consolation from a traumatized child as this?

Very, very depraved! Words seem inadequate to describe how evil our government is.

Scapegoating immigrants is an ongoing part of their culture wars.

I'm appalled by everything they do. Not in my name!

It's almost like the US & UK government's are having a cruelty contest.

That is sickening and also sets a precedent for the govt to not care about wrongful convictions. Queen the govt legitimizes a fraud like this, the govt becomes a fraud.
