20,000 get their feet under the table and then all the requests for their relatives will follow

Money would be better spent on improving the camps for these people in countries like Lebanon
We can help these people without giving them the right to live in the Uk

The march through Europe of these people for me was a massive security breach
No one knows the amount of isis fighters/sympathizers amongst this lot

In years to come when Muslims in the UK are demanding a separate Muslim State within the Uk just like what is happening in countries like Thailand and the Philippines, only then will people look back at this issue and then reflect that maybe it was not such a great idea

Thats not impossible either just take a look around the Globe
