Asylum seekers on hunger strike

Asylum seekers on hunger strike

About 60 people are taking part in a hunger strike started by 13 Iraqi Kurds at an Oxfordshire immigration centre.

Could this become as embarrassing and a PR disaster like the IRA hunger strikes?

Likely it will. Government spent an unbelievable £17 billion of taxpayers money on asylum seekers against £3 billion on NHS last year, according to the Daily Express.

Do you know they are on hunger strike ?
