WOMAN: The telly's even worse!

You've got to do something about that aerial.

They've charged us interest on the interest.

I told you to pay it, didn't I?

"Oh, we've plenty of time," you said!

Now we're paying interest on the interest.

Any chance of a lift? No.

Go into the bank and pay it today,

and get some money for the plaster cos it's coming this weekend.

I thought you were getting a man in. I thought I married one.

Put the bacon on about four o'clock, and it's bin day today.

That's not an instruction. What?

"It's bin day today." It's not an instruction, it's a statement.

Put the bin out. Thank you.

GIRL: Give us a lift, Dad. Five minutes.

If you're giving them a lift, you might as well pick up a cabbage.

It's called multitasking. Oh!

See you later, kids. DOOR CLICKS

I'm up for sentencing now. Sentencing! Not trial.

Bleeding sentencing!

Expect four years, hope for two. That's what my brief said.

"Hope for two!" SIREN WAILS

Wouldn't you have done a bunk? Anyone would do a bleeding bunk!

If they catch you, though? You what?

Well, if they catch you, they'll add time on.

Yeah, if I get caught, but I'm not gonna get caught, am I, eh?

The only way I'm gonna get caught is through my kids,

and, well, I'm not gonna stop seeing my kids.

I'm gonna see my kids, and they know that.

I'm just gonna have to watch my back, that's all.

Er, I'm not being funny, Sean, but could you open a window, mate?

I did it all for my kids, do you know what I mean?

Once upon a time, you'd be respected, wouldn't you,

robbing for your family and that.

You'd get respect! Not these days, though.

We get trapped, I'm telling you.

Do you ever feel trapped, Ed, yeah? Yeah.

Yeah? Feel trapped? Yeah.

We're too bleeding responsible, mate, I'm telling you.

Yeah.

I'll box you off when I see you next, Ed.

He's coming now, mate. Taxi's here!

I were born here, mate. It were posh then.

Women out doing their step.

You know where we went wrong? No.

Letting them in.

Taxi's here!

Housing associations. As soon as you let them in, that's it.

They tin one house up, then another.

People start to leave, so they tin their houses up,

then they bring in asylum seekers.

Why are you bringing in asylum seekers?

Cos no-one else wants to live here.

No-one else wants to live here cos you're tinning everything up!

Taxi's here!

Heartbroken, mate.

I was born here and I'm heartbroken.

In here! It's on account, yeah?

Right. In! Here!

Yeah, don't, er, slam the... Cheers.

Look, I was told to bring him here, there'd be somebody here.

'There is no-one here.'

Look, can you just open this gate? 'Sorry.'

How long have you known Eddie? Oh, we've -

I asked him, not you.

Do you speak any English at all?

All right? (LAUGHS)

I thought you were in bed. I'm gonna take him back in the morning.

(You are not supposed to bring them home!

You are supposed to take them where they want to go and drop them off!)

I couldn't leave him walking the streets.

Why not? Are you gonna bring back every homeless person that you find?

Don't be daft. The Doberman was bad enough.

Look, he'll be gone in the morning, right? You'll never see him again.

It's Saturday tomorrow. So what?

What if there's no-one till Monday? There will be.

How do you know?

One night. That's it.

What do you think you're doing? Is this a trick question?

You're not leaving him downstairs on his own?

He'll be all right.

We've got a teenage daughter, for God's sake!

He's not gonna... He won't - Right.

Oh, I knew this would happen! I knew it!

Come on, come on. Sit down here, Ojo. Yeah? Sit down.

Right.

David, see what you can find in there, will you?

What am I looking for?

Look under "asylum seekers", "refugees".

Places they can stay, anywhere like that.

There's something iffy about him, if you ask me.

No, there isn't. Why did he run from the police?

I don't know. He's -

Maybe he'd been tortured by the police in his own country.

Yeah, and maybe he's not supposed to be here at all.

You were supposed to be plastering the kitchen this weekend.

I will once I get him sorted. How long's that gonna take?

Do you want me to plaster the kitchen or get shot of him?

Make sure you do.

There's nothing here. There must be something.

There isn't. They don't advertise them places.

Why not? Well, because people burn them down.

How am I supposed to find one, then? I don't know!

There's a support group for Ugandan women. I mean, where's he from?

Hakuna matata.

Hakuna matata!

Get rid of him.

What - nothing at all? Have you tried the YMCA?

Yeah. They said try you.

Sorry.

Well, he's not fussy. He'll kip on the couch.

Oh, we don't allow that. Sorry. You could try again Monday.

Oh, it's all right. Thanks anyway, mate. Come on.

Have you got any money?

Money, money. Have you got any money?

Is that it? Don't you know any -

(SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE) What?

It wouldn't be so bad if you could speak any English.

I know! Come on.

Well, the door's a bit wonky, but people keep...

Er, well, what it is, is, Wayne, is, erm...do you know any Africans?

Any Africans?

Yeah, black Africans.

Only I've picked this fella up and he don't speak any English, see?

Are you trying to be funny?!

No, no, no, I just though, you know...

Am I the only black person you know?

No, no, no! Yeah.

And you thought I might know some black Africans?

Well, only off chance.

I can see why you thought that,

seeing as I were born in deepest, darkest Salford.

Yeah, well, no offence, like.

You know, I just thought you might know somebody who knew somebody.

Somebody in the family. Tell you what, doesn't matter.

No, no, thanks a lot, mate. Cheers, anyway.

Oh, cab's running great, yeah. Cheers.

Liberia? Yeah.

I spent years there. Yeah?

And he's a Catholic. Carries rosary beads.

He'll be no trouble at all, Father. He's out in the cab.

I'll bring him in - Oh, you want me to take him in?

Er, yes, please. Take one, I'd have to take them all.

It's only for one night, Father. I'll come back for him in the morning.

Sorry, it's not allowed. Church policy.

Church policy? Yeah.

What about Christ's policy, Father?

Can I be frank? Yes.

You don't give a damn about Christ's policy.

The last time I saw you in church, your son's christening 13 years ago.

So, please, piss off, you bloody hypocrite.

Bought the bastard a pint and all.

Here goes.

(COUGHS) Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen.

Er, sorry, sorry for interrupting, like.

Erm, only my friend here, erm, well, he don't speak any English, yeah?

He's African and he's sort of lost.

You gonna get him sorted tomorrow, are you? Sunday?

Two more nights, then. He's staying two more nights and that's it.

No arguments whatsoever. He's staying.

And I'm supposed to sit in with him while you go out to work?

(SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE) No, Ojo, please, please.

He's no trouble, woman. He's not a mass murderer, for God's sake!

How do you know? He's staying!

That's it! He's staying!

You promised me he would be gone by today.

Two more nights is not gonna make any difference, you selfish...

He's staying.

I am not - (SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

Having complete strangers dossing on my couch - that is not selfish!

It's just tonight and tomorrow! I don't want him here!

He's got nowhere to go! That's not my problem.

He's staying.

Please...please, please don't make me say it, Margie.

Just accept that, please - Say what?

Just accept that he's staying - Say what?

For once in your life, will you do something that I want?!

Say what?!

You'll go before him.

At least let me drive you.

You stay here with your mate, seeing as he's more important to you

We've got no room in ours.

We can't afford to keep taking these people in.

We're a rich country!

Then how come they keep telling us we'll have to work till we're 70?

We've got a pensions crisis,

hospitals have no money, schools have no money.

They keep telling us there's no bottomless pit of money,

but they seem to be able to find it for these people.

We've got an aging population.

We need these people to work, create wealth, pay taxes.

Bollocks! There's not that much work to go round.

There's 1.5 million registered unemployed.

They're taking jobs off British people,

forcing wages down, that's what's happening.

I thought you were moaning about 'em getting benefits.

Now you're complaining about 'em working!

Aye! I just don't want 'em in this bleeding country.

I've travelled the world, mate.

You wanna see what immigration does to a nation, go to Australia.

Aborigines lying in the gutter, smackheads, stickheads.

Why? Because they let immigrants in.

This is Ojo.

They should have slaughtered us, but they didn't.

Would you like to sit here?

They let us in, and now they're finished.

North American Indians, exactly the same.

Where was this taken? Africa.

Looks nothing like Africa. You've never been to Africa.

I've been to Moss Side. It looks like Moss Side.

Is it because he's black?

No, Eddie, it's because he's an uninvited guest in my house.

If it were me, right, if I were in his shoes,

wouldn't you want somebody to help me out?

No-one's ever helped us out, Eddie! We're in debt up to here!

Our kids could get to university,

but they haven't got a chance cos we can't afford it.

My mother's waiting on an operation!

But never mind that - their problems are more important.

I've got to put these people before my own family

because some do-gooder wants to show the world how nice he is?

It was a joke.

I love you, you eejit.

It was a joke.

WOMAN: His port of entry?

(MAN SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

He's not sure.

When exactly did he arrive in the country?

(MAN SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

He thinks about six months ago.

(SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE)

Excuse me, can I have a word?

DOORBELL CHIMES

Did Ojo leave anything here?

Er, photo, pair of jeans, rosary beads and a radio.

Anything else?

No.

Well, they won't let him out.

I thought if he left some papers or something - an address.

He's in a terrible state.

What do you want me to do about it?

Oh, some mate you are!

Hang on, some mug I was. Oh!

What are you pulling faces at? How would you know?

I took him in here when he had nowhere to go.

I didn't see you keeping him.

I tried to get him sorted it. He caused murder between me and her.

I stood up for him and all that time, he were lying to me.

What are you on about, Eddie?

He said he was from Liberia, Sierra Leone. Next it'll be Timbuktu!

He told me his family were all dead! His family are all dead!

And he's from Nigeria, OK?

And the reason he lied is because if he goes back there, they'll kill him!

He lied cos he's scared shitless!

I don't get it - Sean has been released?!

But... DOOR SLAMS

..he's the one who started it.

MAN: Well, he's been released on police bail.

Well, why can't Ojo be released on police bail?

Because we haven't got a fixed address for him.

Right, if he had an address, yeah, somewhere to stay, you'd release him?

Yeah.

All right?

Listen, erm... I'm sorry about last night.

Sorry, yeah?

All right, steady on. Come on, mate.

Right, I'll tell you what.

Why don't you do all the talking?

Come on.

Listen, before you start, it's only temporary.

They weren't gonna let him out unless he had somewhere to stay.

I couldn't leave him there.

It's my fault he was in there in the first place.

If I'd let him in last night, wouldn't have been in that situation.

Now, I know I said last time I'd sort him out, but this time I will.

It's only temporary. This is my house as well, don't forget.

So, I'm not gonna say, "You go before him" - I was wrong when I said that,

but, well, if he goes, I go.

Have you had anything to eat?

To eat?

I'll go make you something.
