- High unemployment and low life expectancy: this is Teesside, once the hub of Britain's steel industry. It's now home to record numbers of asylum seekers - filling homes abandoned by dwindling local communities. Many claimed they'd become targets for abuse - thanks to their red-painted front doors. Now they've been covered over, Assed Baig has returned to Teesside to find out how long term residents and those who've recently arrived are coping in this area of high deprivation.
The red doors were the houses owned by Jewish entrepreneur Jomast whos absolutely coining in on the housing of immigrants
Racist much?
They bought a job lot of paint like most companies do. Not their fault that other people are racist.
@@catherinehume9193 Wokie much ? Off ya pop silly corbynite doo gooder 😊
got a house in a week yet people have been on housing lists for years dont see the problem why didnt he claim refuge status in the first country thats the rules !!1
That is the first international rule of asylum CLAIM REFUGE IN FIRST SAFE COUNTRY YOU COME ACROSS. If these people tried it in Australia they'd be shipped back.....
If he didn't like it go home English men no run away
@@anthonyperkins7556 Australia wouldn't have let them Dock the boat.
I’m from teeside and they have made it look worse then it is
@@leenobody3249 You beat me to it.
My heart went out to the chap called David (a week without food - it's not right) and the lady who has to use bars on her property - so sad! It is so hard for everyone at the mo all over the UK - we all need to help our communities. Food banks are so essential. And in particular focus help on regeneration in areas which have the greatest poverty
no food for a week and you ride a nice bike ... ye right
did you watch it? it literally says his benefits hadn''t transferred over yet smh PLUS the bike is clearly worse for wear, get over yourself
Spread across the continent like chaff in the wind, living isolated, losing their culture. It would be much better for them and much better for us if we used the money to create settlements close to their home countries where they can live together and retain their community
Yeah that worked really well for isreal
thats not part of the kalgrgi plan my freind
I worked with a lot of Boro lads in the late 80s early 90s .A top bunch of lads
if this so called refugee crossed the med why and how did he arrive in the uk, he passed Italy france and spain at least. its all rubbish.
Anthony Smith They come here because we have the best benefits system compared to France, Germany, Italy etc. And England is softer on "refugees" compared to the other european countries from what I have read.
I was in Boro in the nineties and it felt like a forgotten outpost of a distant empire even then. Dear God! Has nothing been achieved in all that time?
I guess when everyone tells you it's a dump and not to go there and you see things like this... What reason is there to go there?
Principled Uncertainty Go to the North York Moors, a few miles down the road - beautiful place with green hills and high moorland, river valleys and decent people. Middlesbrough is a bit of a shithole though...
The university should bring jobs and money. Invest in tourism and higher education.
Honestly that area, whenever I go back, it's like stepping into desolate Eastern Europe.
Oh use sad people glad ur all gone
That guy at 4:08 who walks past then peaks he’s head out 😂
Risks his life running away, most would risk their life and fight for their country!
Exactly most of them are deserters who left their own woman and children to fight their war
Harris Ali What are you talking about ? There are plenty of people fighting ISIS . You find out where they are and join them !!
Harris Ali Oh and if you do leave your country you stay in the first peaceful one you come across . You don't travel through 10 countries until you get to the ones with the best benefits .Thankfully the British people have spoken and we are out of the absolute joke that is the E.U .We certainly didn't ask all these people to come to our country . So Germany can keep em
+Daves Reality bet you're signing on!
Simon I'm at college whats that got to do with anything what the fuck do you do ?
Tax payers funding all these benefits
I grew up here all my life before emigrating a while back. It amazes me that nothing has changed
Where did you emigrated to?
@@imnotgayyy8489 Canada. You can tell from my accent in my videos that a lot of my original accent has gone
He gets a house within a week and has a £36 weekly allowance but after paying his phone bill he keeps just about £4 "it's not easy you know? My family are in a warzone that's why the phone is so important" his father lives in Sweden and the rest of his family are in Turkey.
Nothing to add all lies, could have stayed in Turkey which was a safe country but these people are willing to drag their kids in a suicidal journey across the world even crossing the sea and risking their lives for "a better life" that's not "seeking asylum" that's seeking a better life, asylum would be the first safe country
derrengui They also forgot to mention Asylum Seekers don't pay rent or council tax. And that if their asylum appeal takes longer than a year they can legally look for work.
Only as £4 but it shows a glass full of spare change .😂
I couldn't afford the money they managed to get there hands on to pay their travel costs
News crews don't show the good parts of Middlesbrough like Marton, nunthorpe (I know that's technically Redcar in Cleveland) but still I live there and we live in a nice house and neighbour hood so cameras don't do Middlesbrough justice
DeltaPlayZ mate boro is part of Redcar an Cleveland
yes but they dont house the asylum seekers there so it seems pointless to show those areas,no?
Had asylum seekers that moved near me No1 bothered them nice house made welcome but they decided to move to the parts of town shown on this video they won't intergrate
Get out of the EU and closed all your borders.
I am from australia.Both parents born in boro. I see know why they came to oz.
I'm from boro theses people don't want these houses 😂 how about the Homeless
You couldn't pay me to move back to to teesside. I loved it, before I lived outside of it. It's nice to go back and visit. But my god its nice to be out.
Tell me about it man
@@Jack-zk6yt where did you move to?
@@imnotgayyy8489 🏴🏴 why do you ask?
its a mess down there now especially the housing near thw center. stinks of waste and most are scruffy and dont give af. sad really
We emigrated to New Zealand 20 years ago and never regretted it for a second. We lived in Thornaby and now and then, I can look at those places out of curiosity on youtube. I still get that feeling of depression even though many places have been poshed up I can still sense the despair and hopelessness of many people, maybe I,m wrong.. That place bears absolutely no resemblance to the country I grew up in. I still see thousands of people plodding along carrying shopping bags because they havn,t a car and cannot afford bus fare. I took a bus from Thornaby to Stockton and what once cost only a few pence, cost 2 Pounds one way and it was within walking distance! It seems that if you havn,t a car if you live in Thornaby, you,re practically hemmed in by motorways and you,re trapped. I remember thinking twice about going to the corner shop after 6pm because of unsavoury looking teens hanging around in gangs.I We had a young daughter and felt the need to get her away from there altogether and moved as far away from Britain that you can possibly get without heading back.Twice I have been back to visit family. The first time reminded us why we emigrated in the first place, the second was closure. The first thing that happened to us was, all our health greatly improved. Everything improved.
Because the greedy bus company's have a only one fare so if you need to travel further its cheap but shorter journeys are expensive. Andy England 🇬🇧 👍
Yep, thornaby is an absolutely horrendous place.
Oh how nice for you 😂 get depressed in sheep land leave proper people alone😅
@@DevilishBeaver0 u dont live there grow up
i I left England 20 years ago for Sydney as i could see what was slowly happening to england. I was born in Durham, grew up in Billingham and went to college (St Marys) in Middlesbrough. When i visit home i dont recognise the place and I have to say i felt unsafe in Middlesbrough. I am all for charity however we need to look at our own first. David not eating for a week broke my heart.
This isn't even a story when the headline leaves a question mark. This video is to fit Channels 4's out of touch narrative.
They show the worst parts if middlesbrough
Andrew Smith The North York Moors?
@@TheUKNutter That's not Middlesbrough though, it's near by in a car that's about it.
Bio-plasmic Toad It’s about 10 miles away, so it’s kind of like the outskirts!
I lived in Redcar all of my life, so the OP isn’t wrong
@@TheUKNutter I live in redcar, it's not Middlesbrough. It's like saying redcar is marske.
I agree. Makes the people look like scum and the area look like a complete shithole, which is not true.
As the Dalai Lama says , go home !
You go home!
Republic of Ireland, Iceland, Norway are better places than Britain as far as economic and social mobility.
At this rate Sierra Leone will be better
Teesside is still probably one of the most closed minded, rough and horrendous places in the country.
I grew up there and got out as soon as I could
Good for you you puff
Turkey is a safe zone?
Why not fill all the posh hotels in london with these illegal immigrants and let our homegrown homeless have these houses. The politicians would soon start clamping down on our imported detritous .
As the Dali lama said himself
They should fight for peace in their own countries
Thanks for sending them to us France!! I bet they never believed how the Boro turned out!!!
UKIP and right wingers need to start brushing their teeth.
Pakistanis and muslims need to stop marrying their 1st cousins
For men’s is easy asylum life because they work in black but for women with baby’s it’s very very hard
5:04
A week of no food and you look like that?
hardwick anyone?
I never had a problem getting work in Teesside. I've lost jobs in the past, but pretty much found a decent new one 2 weeks later. I'm a heavy goods driver of course
They always want drivers all over the country, but if you are an unskilled worker there is not alot at all. Everyone needs work and everyone is in competition for what is there.
If that lad hadn’t eaten for days he would have ripped into those carrier bags to eat anything he could open .Utter BS
them bags are straight round terry's for a £5 bag
Tuxedo Royale looks pretty rough.
to be renamed teesideistan, i live in stocktonistan
no wtf
If yo don’t like it leave then enough people need help in this country
they accommodate asylums in the worst part of middsbro
Do like Denmark make them work for their benefits, no work No house, No work no food or benefits .
2:07 £36 a week, £4+ a day to live on. So ~£8 is spent on the phone bill?
Yes? Is that unreasonable?
J I’m from this place. We get way less money than that and we work. We also don’t get a free house to live in. This place is not supposed to be a refugee facility!
@@TheUKNutter you're working for less that 36 a week? Is that even legal? Look. I also live here. And I disagree. It has come to the point that the people who are denying your rights to you have convinced you that other people in need have taken them from you....
J A country should put their people first. As in, their own - the locals that have lived there for millennia.
@@TheUKNutter this comes back to my point. The government could do right by both of you, however it chooses not to. It has convinced you to go after the foreigners rather than them. Its a distraction.
Who's constituency are you in, I'm in simon clarkes?
Keep paying your taxes so we can keep funding our replacement.
Am a Eastbourne lad, combat 18is the truth lucky
So he can't work and loves on less than 40 pound a week that's shocking
Poor David no food for 4 days, what a liar and a smack head.
I used to live there I grew up there but I live in Blackpool now
Also my family still lives there
@@zapzazzlionz6118 how is it
This country is so fucked. The poor are uprising. Can't give them more free money. I have said this before and I'll say it again, open those mines back up and get everyone working.
Simon oh yeah fuckin fossil fuels it's a dying industry they wouldn't stay open two months and the environment would go to shit, not like it hasn't already
think factories would be better ugm
I was meaning just for work. But yeah maybe factories would work but then other countries are getting paid less to do work. Minimum wage here is getting ridiculous though I'm sure Molly would disagree with that since she probably has lots of organic/ fair trade items to buy and they ain't cheap.
Doesn't have to be coal mines- theres plenty of other mines.
coal mines or factories... wouldn't make any difference because the asylum seekers and EU immigrants would work cheap and drive the wages down. a mine where no one speaks English would be a safety hazard. They need to stick to a certain wage level and do something for the people born there.
theyre human beings, why are so many people full of hate towards foreigners
That's all that some people can do, hate and even more hate.
+Jason Gibson And easy when they come to our countries as guest's and demand we live under Muslim law, easy indeed.
+SeanPaulSmith Because these people destroyed their countries and will do the same in our lands if they ever grow in numbers. Even after dealing with several religious extremists they still hold on to their radical believes even after spending decades in our countries.
+SeanPaulSmith The homeless in our countries are human beings too yet no one is fighting for them like they do for these people
Zarathrustrasite The 'white working class' arent escaping a war torn country and have theyre homes and family blown up by isis and the british army.
You heard it yourself folks. Come to Britain, get a house within a week.
He's got a Glass full of money 2.47, and still whining.
propaganda 101
What a great guy he is, abandoning his family, then he wants to complain about cost of phoning them from his allowance
Raciste
@@imnotgayyy8489if you think exposing the idiocy of the man in the video complain is racist then you are an ignoramus
36 divide 7 is 5.14. So he has 5.14 a day to live on and his phone bill costs £1.00 a day. Don't twist things to make it seem worse.
Teesside is horrible now i hate life here if it wasn't for my kids i would be swinging from a rope
Say it loud say it clear refugees are welcome here allahu snackbar
Excellent reporting.
You MAKE your life, wherever you are.
you would not come to another country to live on £4 per day and the bullshitter who said i have not eaten for a week
This guy is siran men hahaha I know him he get paper now abhahab
Lol x
The reason we have wars, from which people flee, is precisely because of the kind of attitude exhibited in many of these comments.
u see guys alot of the comments was like he should have stayed and try to fight
but talking is easy
specially when u don't know the truth
none of you ever been there
it is not a war against someone or some groups we have people from all over the world fighting in our land .there is no side you can choose . we didn't ask for that or we didn't ask to get our lives destroyed.
for the people who say that why did u choose the uk?
cuz we can speak some english !!
i've already lost 5 years of my life in that war and i don't need to lose another 2 years learning a new language
we don't have enough enerji left to fight all the way from zero
so please guus you should now and understand that we r not here to take your jobs or benefits we were forced to go out and we won't stay in your land for ever we r just visitors ...
That's not the point.....you have all ignored the first international rules of asylum and that is to claim refuge in first safe country you come across, if you ignore first safe country rules then you are no longer asylum seekers and become mere economic migrants who are a nuisance a pain a burden and a slap in the face for UK citizens whom would rather you didn't come here in the first place.........
@@anthonyperkins7556 well said anthony...
i live near the fountain in stockton and had a 0h contract so one week id work 60hours and the next 2 weeka id have no work. the council left me homeless 19 weeks until i eventually found a private rent property and you know what, ive never had any benefits but I certainly wouldnt persecute an asylum seeker for living for free next door. people are people and i can only get angry at the government for who they choose to help or not. no one else
we need more asylum seekers and refugees! good people, good people
