Refugee crisis

according to this article I think some of the blame should be at the feet of the UNHCR they would not register them as refugees, Turkey would not give them exit visas. There were people waiting in BC for them, they had put in a lot of work to privately sponsor this family as refugees and their application was rejected. Probably because of the red tape from Turkey/UN. This is just heartbreaking.

@urmston in what decade, mindset, other version of reality, does co-operation become a bad thing? Forget the price of imported bananas, the idea behind the eu is that we are all stronger together. And you want to leave that?
 
The UN reckons there are 9 million Syrian refugees displaced by war. 6 million of these are still in Syria, 3 million are in neighbouring countries. Does Merkel realise what her statement on asylum could unleash? The potential numbers are astronomical. This is just the beginning. Can't see a solution right now.
She has something up her sleeve,YES she's letting `Economic Migrants into Germany, but putting them in villages & small towns is causing unrest despite what the banners say.
I'm sure she sees them as short term settlers,the huge proportion are adult males what happens when they demand their families are allowed in.
This is just the start.UK needs to stay strong on this.
