THERE are three asylum seekers' centres to be built in the country, each holding 750 people.

Each will have its own health centre, education centre and gym.

If these centres are successful another 12 to 15 will be built.

Absolutely marvellous! Well done Home Secretary David Blunkett.

If you can do this, why can't you look after the elderly in this country -- with better pensions, and homes for the elderly?

Or are they all past their sell-by date?

Have you forgotten what they have done for this country in the past?
