Other countries who have taken refugees and asylum seekers, whose current cultural frame of mind might be at odds with theirs, have made mistakes with distribution, housing them, education facilities, policing and enforcement and employing them.
These are people who have had to escape the horrors of total war, who rather be safe in their homeland and who have been pummeled with warped images of the west and have endured life under a Jihadist administration for many months. Coming to Europe has been a total culture shock. European countries should have anticipated this as they carried out their obligations of the Geneva Convention.
It is no use demonising these desperate and damaged people. We should be sheltering and nurturing them, whilst protecting ourselves. Not rocket science.
Unfortunately there are people in this discussion who have picked up on the disgraceful rhetoric of Farage, et al, who seems to have his speeches written for him by ISIS. ISIS rub their hands with glee at every sign of hate and misinformation directed at Muslim refugees. They love anything that destabilises European society or the EU. Why else do they bomb our cities and continue to drive refugees north? They have Farage and his ilk totally suckered, and at our expense.
We need to get a grip and work with other European countries, EU and non-EU. This is a global and continental problem that would exist without the EU.

Sorry it's certainly not hysteria to point out what's happening in the EU and what could so easily find its way here. As for demonising people, I have consistently stated here that we should be assisting genuine refugees closer to home. Sadly, the world is full of would be economic migrants and the more we allow to come here one way or another, the more will want to come and I couldn't care less what religion they are. That's not hysteria it's logic and it's happening right before our eyes in Greece now. To claim the UK will somehow remain 'immune' forever from the huge fallout of what's going on in Europe is naïve.
The rest of your post regarding ISIS and Farage is garbage and not worth commenting on.
