George Osborne just said it was criminal gangs who killed that toddler

Eh? is he speaking in an abstract way, blaming trafficking, or does he genuinely mean a group of criminals killed him?

Turkey isnt that safe it's has been overwhelmed with refugees, stop blaming the parents you horrible bastards, easy to say what you would do when you're not living through it.
Exactly, the UN intervened in the Balkans in the 90s and soon put a stop to all the nonsense, all the ethnic cleansing shit virtually stopped overnight, when the UN pointed a few guns at the nutters on both sides they soon came to their sensesThe solution should be to sort out the reason these people are leaving their countries of birth.
We have the United Nations, who appear to be sitting on their hands and doing nothing - now is the time for them to act.

Your grasp of history is non-existent. As is your grasp of reality, seemingly.

Invite more people into the country that is close to breaking point? NHS stretched to its limits, reduction in police officers, doctors, other major services but invite more people in who will be a further drain on the economy?some of you lot need to give your heads a wobble.
Humanitarian disaster, natural disasters, famine, war is all part of the world unfortunately.

You think his parents wanted to get in some shitty dingy? Would have been their last resort no doubt.
A quick viewing of liveleak video's in Syria might help you understand the pain and torment they are fleeing.

Natural disasters we can do nothing about except deal with the aftermath effectively.
All the other points could be stopped.

Yeah except my cousin who was posted there and had to watch people get shot dead and not intervene, messed him up really bad.
You rewrite history.

Indeed, why the fuck would we possibly want to help people who are far worse off than ourselves. Shocking concept.

I know its not an earth shattering amount, but there is an EU fund that provides an initial payment of 6.000 euro for each refugee, with further payments re; length of stay etc.Why does everyone assume these people would be drain on society?

None of those issues are the fault of people fleeing a war-torn country that has been bombed to fuck. By us ironically.
Lack of investment in national infrastructure has been a concious, ideological decision taken by government. There's plenty of money sloshing around to pay for the services that we all need, all it needs is a decision taken to spend it.
You can't use our Government's decision to run public services into the ground as justification for not helping absolutely desperate people. Your thinking is morally bankrupt I'm afraid.

Don't think anyone is saying "let the brown skins flock over" but surely we as a nation could do more to prevent kids drowning in an attempt to escape what boils down to a living hell.Invite more people into the country that is close to breaking point?

I was just thinking about that myself. I remember thinking it was an amazing thing that was happening, turns out it was the complete opposite
