But keeping 600 young men for many months in a hotel with nothing to do is seemingly the source of some tension locally. Extremists are then exploiting this situation, threatening violence and the result is that, over a wider area, many of our residents feel unsafe.
Thank you, Paul. I am aware of the national issues, & appreciate the local context. The extremists revel in symbolism. As a local resident, I would rather the council invoke the bylaws as a means of showing solidarity with those who are being so appallingly treated in places like the Thistle.
