I just hope all these vulnerable children are going to receive better 'care' and 'support' than a good many of their UK born and bred counterparts have been the recipients of. I hope they get all the support they need to keep them safe and ensure they fully integrate and become valued members of society. I'm sure there are copious finances, resources and properly trained staff just sitting around twiddling their thumbs with nothing to do whilst waiting for them to arrive.
I think taking them from camps is the right thing to do - so far as I'm concerned the migrants in Calais are living in (and subjecting their children to) appalling conditions when they're in a safe EU country and the only danger they face is self imposed. If we allow people to effectively blackmail us into giving them entry where will it all end? We're seeing what results when that happens all throughout Europe.
I'm just listening to Yvette Cooper banging on about vulnerable, lonely children wandering around Europe. Has she ever had a stroll around parts of London and many other of our major towns and cities I wonder. I don't hear her offering to do anything about that appalling state of affairs.
When asked about her personal offer to house refugees she quickly backtracked, however, suggesting that the govt. had suggested that would not be the best way to help then moved on. No surprise there then eh? So easy to talk the talk isn't it...
