Actually, why should she?
I mean I have a spare room, but I'd not take anyone in unless there was a national disaster. I feel it should be something organised by government using willing individuals , not bits and pieces strung together this way and that. One of the main problems is that I've had experience of living with tenants of the English kind, you get bad uns and good uns everywhere.

harry writes: Virtue signalling JK Rowling to house "refugees" in one of her many mansions. https://www.change.org/p/j-k-rowling...src-reason_msg How stupid. "Since she is a sheltered member of the rich elite"... Strange - she used to work for amnisty international, and she was a broke single parent on benefits before writing Harry Potter. She has said she has decided to stay in the UK (which costs her loads in taxes she could easily save like many other celebrities do by moving abroad), specifically to repay for the bad times UK social security helped her through, and she is now also a philanthropist. Of all the people you might pick to moan about, Rowling is a stunningly bad choice. Has any celebrity making this promise actually kept it? What promise? How many homeless people are you putting up Harry? - Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

Brian The problem is she is advocating mass importation of these scroungers. They won't be living anywhere near her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHnj...ature=youtu.be |

Several promised to house refugees in their own homes. https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/lat...ee-home-pledge How many homeless people are you putting up Harry? None. Our own homeless are homeless as a result of decisions they took earlier. eg Bunking off school and not doing homework. I don't give a **** about them. They made their own bed. I'm not interested in housing foreign scroungers, rapists, murderers, muggers or terrorists I know nothing about. |

writes Actually, why should she? Because she said she would..and so did Sturgeon. I mean I have a spare room, but I'd not take anyone in unless there was a national disaster.

Someone told me she's dropped out of the "100 Richest in the UK" due to the amount of it she's given away. Tax dodge most likely. |
