I feel that this 'sympathy' scenario is now coming out from various sources and that various people - ie Bob Geldof has offered his house and flat to accommodate some refugee's.
And that DC has offered more help in bringing some to the UK.

We have to look at this two ways, such as a comment made on this forum. In the UK alone TODAY, there are people that are HOMELESS and destitute. And need severe help and many homeless people live at Cardboard City in London.

And now since this poor child drowned along with his mum and brother. We have people offering there homes to help them

We have many building in London that are empty, why doesn't DC offer them shelter there.

This problem has been going on for over a year, yet, DC went on holiday, when it was starting to become a crisis.

Why does it have to be a poor child, bring everything to the forefront and start the usual UK - we will come to the rescue again, and again.

I really feel sad for the refuges, but there comes a time when we have to say enough is enough. We are a small island in the middle of a pond.

If the British Government can look after thousands of migrants, why cant it look after its own people as well
