//They are a mixture of many nationalities, not exclusively Syrian.
Virtually none of the illegal invaders using the Central Routes from North Africa to Italy and Spain are Syrian. They are mostly Eritreans, Nigerians, Malians and Somalians. //
Thank you for your accurate breakdown of what nationality the people who are swarming through Europe are.
A few weeks back ,when we saw the tragic body of the baby washed up on the beach in Turkey, we had ,on AB, almost mass outrage and hysteria saying that all these poor refugees must be allowed into the UK under humaniterian grounds en masse.
When some here tried to persuade the gullible that they were NOT all genuine Syrian refugees but economic migrants we were shouted down as heartless by those whose hearts ruled their brain.
It is good to see that you have described the genuine strife torn refugees as staying close to home with the hope to return to their country if peace is restored and the rest are basically chancers only wishing to scrounge an existence from the UK taxpayer. Something that some of us had already realised.
