What to do about migrants/refugees

Who could not be moved in some way by the scene we witnessed of that three-year-old child’s limp dead body being carried up a Turkish beach, you would need a heart of stone.

The big question being asked is could the UK do more and take in migrants/refugees with plenty of people it will not really effect saying we should. ‘Britain is RACIST’ for not taking in more refugees, was the claim of actress Emma Thompson but how will it effect on her life, not much.

She won’t be queuing in all ready over crowded housing office with a number in her hand waiting to speak to some council official trying to find them some accommodation. Most will find emergency accommodation the only offer and probably end up on some council estates not the leafy suburb of London, Manchester, or some quaint village.

Is she offering to throw open her door? She most likely got the space does that make her racist if she doesn’t offer to help? Talk is easy. I don’t think the news reporters would get much joy asking the people queuing in the housing office and find much support for more competition for housing. Of course, it’s not just housing schools, health, and other services all could feel the pressure of allowing a free for all.

I like the Labour idea of spreading around 10 refugee families around a thousand town/cities in the UK. It could work in that case but I have the feeling most would want to go to London. Syrian’s only or are we opening the door to everyone? If so will it be families or hundreds of single young men.

If we do take in more they should come from the people who are in camps supported by the British government. It is only fair, as they have sat tight in the camps waiting for their chance and some are waiting to go home to Syria. Germany has created the currant problem and the mad rush across the backbone of Europe. They say they would take 800,000 refugees but what happens when the 800,001 refugee turns up at the border. I reckon when the dust settles Germany could find themselves with many more migrants/refugees came over their border than their set target.
