In Thetford, a small county town in Norfolk - there are street protests over the last few nights. And guess what all the hullabaloo is about - and you guess correctly - the opposition to asylum seekers in their local communities. These young alone men - it’s always men between about 18-30 are housed in - multiple housing occupancy (MHO). A number of police officers have been injured and one was bitten very badly. The men and women of Thetford are angry and fed up, saying ‘these houses, should be used by us, not foreign men’. So Andy Burnham, this where the - rubber hits the road. People feel the state isn’t on their side and working - for them and seeing asylum seekers getting into housing is - where the straw brakes the camels back. Welcome to reality.
