THREE ASYLUM SEEKERS JUMP 150FT TO THEIR DEATHS IN GLASGOW

Three  aysulum seekers, thought to be Kosovans, have jumped 150 feet to their deaths from the 15th floor of the notorious 'RED ROAD' FLATS in Springburn, Glasgow.   They first had to throw a wardrobe through some safety netting to make sure their suicide bid would be  successful.  Although it would be flippant to say they were only trying to escape the Scottish weather or the state of their accommodation, (I've been in the flats in a professional capacity and believe me you wouldn't keep a dog in there), it seems to me that it is a sad state of affairs when this country can't welcome genuine 'ASYLUM SEEKERS' who would rather commit suicide rather than be sent home.  This is the constituency of former SPEAKER, Michael Martin and of course thanks to the Labour Party's cowardice in not holding a Bi-election there is no sitting MP.  Therefore, as immigration is a reserved matter, there is no one in power locally to make sure an enquiry is swift and probing.  A SAD STATE of affairs for a 'CIVILISED COUNTRY'.
