who is too ill to work,

Should we start up a Just Giving page for him. Poor man.
On Rothesay one immigrant was quoted as saying There's nothing for us to do here, if I'd known it was this boring I'd never have come.
Give him his fair to Calais, plenty to do there.

I read this the other day he has been here 5 years and never worked, that's why 1000's of Eritreans are biding their time at Calais.
