What's you're definition of child though? 0-12 maybe 13. yes. 13-15 depends on the circumstances. 16-25 year olds that pretend they're children, no.

Probably because the system was openly abused with the help of Calais charity workers, by men in their twenties or older, in front of the British tv cameras. Due to a lack of willingness to assess a claimants true age, we appear to be in the position of having to let anyone who claims to be under 18 in, or none.

They are not children,they are men.
They are fighting age men of a certain religion. They don't like you. A number of them will be Jihadists. For the sake of your treasury,your women,your schools and your health service don't be fooled by the virtue signallers. Don't be fooled by the wealthy who champion these people but will be in no way affected by them. |

Perhaps you should be a customs officer, then those twenty somethings getting off the coaches wouldn't have made a laughing stock of the whole process. Proper kids were left behind so that those men could enter.

Most of the terrorists in the U.K. were homegrown most of the refugees are fleeing terrorism and war.

Surely all refugees are fleeing war, the rest are trying to break and enter. Calais was mainly full of the latter. Plenty of bone fide refugees we can bring in from camps in Lebannon and Jordan without caving in to criminal types.

Where are these children supposed go when they get here?
We're seeing calls all the time for foster parents to look after our own parentless kids, without importing more to add to the problem. So where do they expect them to go? Or is at all a calculated exercise to send the kids on first, which gives the parents legitimacy to follow at a later date? |
