At the pitiful level of wages they receive? And they're refugees! They should be treated better than this.
I can agree that it's an improvement over Madeupistan's inhumane policies, but that still doesn't mean it's acceptable. Lord Grathula can clearly afford to provide better housing and social services for them, but he refuses to. Not to mention that the Morthurian refugees are, on the whole, better educated than native Torvalians; Torvalia's economy was on the brink of collapse before the mass migration expanded their skilled labor force.
At a minimum, he should repeal the ban on Morthurians running for seats in Parliament. I don't see how they can be properly represented if they don't have the option of representing themselves.
