ASYLUM seekers living in an remote former hotel called off a hunger strike yesterday which they had undertaken to highlight their claims of bullying and racism.

Proves they do not stand by their convictions.

Totally discredits their cause.

Give back to the taxpayer!

Deport these ingrates or make them dissapear.
