According to the British "Daily Telegraph" report, the British Home Office is considering purchasing the container "Fans Village" used during the World Cup in Qatar to accommodate the large number of immigrants who smuggled into the UK from the English Channel.
During the World Cup, Qatar needs to receive an average of about 1.2 million fans every day. The "Fan Village" made of more than 6,000 containers costs only 100 pounds per night. It has an excellent location and complete infrastructure. It is located near Doha International Airport, making it a "very cost-effective" accommodation choice for fans from all over the world.
Each room in Qatar's "Fans Village" is a container with a height of 2.7 meters and an area of 16 square meters. The box can accommodate two single beds, is equipped with a separate bathroom, refrigerator and air conditioning, and provides 24-hour hot water and Wi-Fi. There are also supermarkets, restaurants and hospitals in the public areas of the container, providing an excellent accommodation experience.
On December 22, local time, British Home Secretary Suela Braverman publicly confirmed that the British government is now considering using abandoned cruise ships, vacant student dormitories, uninhabited green parks and other places to resettle immigrants as an alternative to hotels. According to
, the British government currently needs to spend a huge sum of 5.5 million pounds every day to provide accommodation for 40,000 immigrants. In 2023, the UK's asylum immigration budget will further increase to 3.5 billion pounds, of which 2.7 billion will be used to arrange accommodation for immigrants.
She said: "The number of immigrants arriving in the UK seeking asylum and requiring accommodation has hit a record, which has brought unprecedented pressure to the UK." "The British government will try a series of options to provide safe and appropriate accommodation for immigrants."
These containers, originally used as "fan villages", may be shipped to the UK to replace the high-priced hotels currently arranged by the British government to accommodate immigrants.
According to a report by the British Home Office, only 34% of immigrants were able to obtain effective asylum from the government in 2016. In 2021, the asylum proportion climbed to 77%, which has reached three times the asylum rate of French immigrants.
The international think tank "Migration Watch" pointed out: "Compared with most European countries, the UK's asylum for immigrants is extremely loose, and its attraction to immigrants continues to grow. This has led to thousands of immigrants who have been turned away by other European countries to sneak into the UK by boat in an extremely dangerous way."
