I Thought It Was Only The Children Who Were At Risk, But It Now Seems That It Is Also The Women, Shall We Then Take Them In As Well?

Are you happy that women could be at risk from sexual abuse if we do not take them in?

[Jackdaw33]

Shocking. We should admit them and relocate them to Rotherham where they will be perfectly safe.

[Zacs-Master]

You thought wrong. The plight of women in the camps has been widely reported:
June last year: http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/680311/Unicef-report-rape-women-migrant-camps-children-drug-dealing-france

The scheme (dubs) has now been halted so we're only taking 350 children rather than the 3000 which the Govt stated:

Why dont we just let everybody who want to come, ENTER.

I dont think a few more thousand will make our economy, NHS waiting list, housing shortage, school placements, benefit scroungers etc, any different.

Lets just open the flood gates, and let the Country slide into a landfill.

[Zacs-Master]

But that's not happening trt. Are you aware that the Dubs scheme has been terminated?

[anotheoldgit]

Zacs-Master

I was quite aware of those reports, on the Dubs scheme it is only the children that some are concerned over. But my point is (which you failed to answer) should we take them in also or leave them behind to endure what is happening to them?

But then why not take in the women and children in the Sudan, and other parts of Africa, in Indonesia and from the streets of Brazil etc etc etc?

How can we, with our record of humanitarianism fail to do so?

[webbo3]

Surely the safety of the women and children in the camp are the responsibility of the French as its in France.

[Zacs-Master]

If you were 'quite aware of those reports' why did you say you thought it was only children who were at risk?

/// But that's not happening trt. Are you aware that the Dubs scheme has been terminated? ///

And are you also aware that Sir Dubs has been knocking on number 10's door with a petition and the matter might be taken to court?

I bet there are plenty of spare rooms in Dub's mansion that he could use to foster a few of these 'children'?

[Jackdaw33]

//The scheme (dubs) has now been halted so we're only taking 350 children rather than the 3000 which the Govt stated: \\

Still 350 too many IMO.

[Zacs-Master]

That tells us more about you than the Govt, JD.

It was a sarcastic remark, seeing that this week we have constantly been told that it is only the children they are concerned over.

[Jackdaw33]

You're welcome.

[Zacs-Master]

Of course it was AOG. Of course it was.

[anotheoldgit]

Zacs-Master

/// That tells us more about you than the Govt, JD. ///

I hope it does since most of us in their right minds would rather listen to what the general public has to say, rather than what the Government has to say.

After all it is us who have to suffer the consequences and not them.

[Zacs-Master]

So what exactly, are 'the consequences' of letting 350 abused children into our country?

[Togo]

So Let's get this straight......the children are at risk and the women are at risk....right. So it must be the men who are the problem. Are these the same men who the female "aid workers" were conducting affairs with?

[Jackdaw33]

a) There is no evidence that they are being abused.

b) They could grow up to abuse us.

[anotheoldgit]

It is France who let them in, so if anyone has to face charges of a lack of humanitarianism, then it is them and not us.

Once we let them in, then others will follow and so will their families at a later date.

Our social services, our health service, our housing and our schools are on their last legs now, we can't take in any more.

WE ARE FULL.

[Togo]

350 Children will soon have 1,500 or so siblings, 700 parents and 1400 aunts and uncles that are required to enable them to have a "family" life. Perhaps Madonna or Jolie could adopt them?
