Unfortunately the people getting angry have generally not benefited from an economic boom nor 15 years of free money. They can see, often very visibly - that their neighbourhoods were already blighted, before government decided to dump a few hundred people there from halfway round the world.

And yes, you’re right about them feeling economically left behind, but the reality is that isn’t because of people living in hotels awaiting appeals or processing
