It’s Northgate Community Centre, Crawley.
>A group of migrants from the Chagos Islands have refused to leave a temporary rest centre, resulting in a general election polling centre being moved.

> The centre is used as a polling station and, as a result of the stalemate, residents will now vote in Thursday’s general election at St Elizabeth’s Church.
Good for them. It’s utterly shameful that they’re not being provided with proper accommodation.
Can’t believe people are living in there, unless it’s been upgraded in the past 20 years it used to be a bit of a shit hole. We used it for battle of the bands and other gigs occasionally.
Disgraceful they are not being provided with something more sensible. But better than being on the street I guess.
‘A group of Chaos islanders….’.
Yeah, no, good for them, the amount of shit our country did to them is inexcusable.
I’m just waiting for some Reform Party type to say that they should be sent back to where they came from!
