Rejected petition Not allow Roebuck House, Cosham as temp accommodation for illegal immigrants

Cosham residents don't want Roebuck House, Cosham, Portsmouth to be temporary accommodation for illegal immigrants.
Cosham is home to many families, young, old and vulnerable and the last thing we want is to feel unsafe where we live and see a spike in crime rates like there has been around the UK

More details

Cosham residents have a right to feel safe where they live and not feel threatened or scared about leaving their home, letting their children play, elderly relatives safety or fear that their property may be damaged or stolen.
You only have to look at the incidents that have happened across the UK due to these temporary living arrangements to understand everyone's concerns. We would all appreciate this matter being taken seriously.
