Migration crisis is putting the UK at grave risk.

I think there is a fundamental flaw with the Dublin Agreement, it's kinda unfair on the safest country nearest the current land of bother. Plus the average refugee-on-the-street probably doesn't have a copy of agreement with him......

Not to mention which there are people with different destinations on their paperwork. I don't claim to understand this stuff myself because I've never been processed as a refugee, but then I'm not making sweeping accusations about the motivations of refugees or asylum seekers on the back of reading a couple of tabloid editorials.

You claimed as a fact something that you just made up on the spot

There you go again. You do not know. I do know.

My post WAS easy to read (for those with a reading age above 11) if you weren't looking for something to hang your prejudices on. For those that require help, I said, she said. As the resident expert on 'Morals' and in particular the 'High ground' perhaps you'd like to explain the yourself clearly now or forever hold your piece (sic, in Shakespearian tradition)?

Chortle! So true, the pontificating twit!

I'm sure dhoog must be a vicar or something in real life.

FTFY

When is Refugee not a Refugee? How far does one have to travel to be deemed not a Refugee? How many borders do you have to cross to 'escape'?

I got my ear torn off by the missus last night during the 10 o'clock news for not having any 'empathy' for those 'displaced'. I had the temerity to point out that real Refugees are easy to spot as they travel the shortest distance to Safety.

None of the above questions answered by UNHCR

So in your eyes the Jews in Germany should have just hopped over the border instead of getting as far away as possible?

They should have gone to the first safe refuge.

I believe that it should be the first 'Safe' Country. Plenty of people made it to Switzerland, France etc.

There is no comparison to a Civil war and World war. In fact if Germany had had a Civil war based on the general populations disagreement with Hitler's policies we'd not have had WW2.

So you think Stalin wouldn't have invaded Poland if Germany had a civil war ongoing ?, you think we'd have just let them roll across Europe rather than Hitler ?

Pretty sure 0% of refugees have read the Dublin Agreement and just head for the country they feel they have a better chance in, UK for a lot for whatever reasons.

Imagine if Bolton was bombed, would I have to claim asylum in Wigan, or would I go to London where the street are paved with gold and not pies.

Churchill did not want to stop at Berlin in 45.

Would you notice if Bolton was bombed?
