Tragic. Sadly it's not the first and won't be the last example of a 'refugee' repaying their hosts in this manner and their victims are the collateral damage of a flawed system which allows plenty of people in but clearly doesn't provide the means to support them. We're admitting all sorts of people into our western society, some of whom are highly dubious characters who have been involved in criminal activity and other highly unpleasant behaviour that we certainly don't need more of here. No, it's not always their fault either - we can't blame, for example, young boys who've been turned into killers by extremists of one sort of another but what resources are going to be available to these damaged individuals when they get here? Have the resources allocated to mental health treatment and associated services in the UK ever been under greater pressure? I'd submit the epidemic of suicides amongst young men is testament to the scale of the problem and the lack of help available to our own citizens let alone anyone else. It's all very well giving refuge to needy or traumatised people but unless huge extra resources are made available to treat them over quite possibly many years, we're just storing up more trouble. As it is, once again it's our existing needy who bear the brunt of the pressure on scare resources not the professional do-gooders and maybe that explains the growing resentment we're seeing across Europe.
