The point is just that we said we would take 3,000 and we are not, in fact we are taking 350.

Basically we are dishonest its a matter of reputation and whether we can be trusted at all in world affairs.

We've taken in more that our fair share of migrants and if we don't have the capacity to service the needs of another bunch, then it's right we don't take them in.

Saying that, i do hinknspecial exception should be made for genuine children that can be identified out of all the other men masquerading as minors to play the system, or kids being used by their parents as a "way in" to Britain through the back door.

You wont get more out of me when you keep repeating party political broadcasts, especially when the bear no resemblance to reality.

The ''reality'' is that we've experienced under-investment in our infrastructure for many years now (regardless of party), and yes, the austerity measures were wrong, as dear old George now admits.
That's the reality.

What infrastructure are you referring to exactly?

Eureka (or “you don’t smella so good yourself” as Chico Marx once said), there was I, in my pleasant reverie, thinking I had been involved in helping compile and write for a football supporters’ site for 16 years.

Foolishly I thought the most important thing in my limited universe here was that I am being chucked out of my much-loved season ticket seat in the Arthur to make way for more disadvantaged supporters in August.

Within the context of HOL, that is the most important matter for me at present so, earnest and well-intentioned though you might be, dear debaters, forgive me please for not giving a monkeys about Syrian refugee children.

you must mean all the things that have huge amounts of money spent on them annually but have no chance of keeping pace with mass immigration as any improvements are swallowed up.
Roads, hospitals, housing.....

Are they worse than the Syrian war zone?

Probably not. But its also not asylum when some of those countries are also funding Sunni salafist extremists that were trying to kill you.

Seems a bit contradictory to insist that people fleeing an oppressive, brutal regime, should first seek shelter in a slightly less overt brutal regime.

Its important to remember that pre-civil war Syria, for all its oppression, was strangely progressive (much like a pre-1992 Iraq), especially in regards to women (being primarily a secular state).

You might think its ok, for women to be sent to live in Saudi, the UAE or Kuwait - I don't.

Migration is an entirely different question to refugees. There is not a UK refugee problem. There is a migration problem, that's entirely driven by corporate interests, funnelled through the EU Freedom of Movemement.

People like to 'merge the two' because their issue tends to be more about issues, but they're entirely separate. The UK has an problem and its with working migration.

It doesn't have, and never has had a population problem relating to asylum, which rarely have even reached 1/5th of the emigrating UK Population.

If you dont want an influx of refugees in the future, try not to believe fake news, dont believe in massive guns, dont invade countrys where although despots, are kept under the thumb by two strong leaders, rightly or wrongly, and dont destabilise the whole middle east, costing hundreds of thousands of lives including our own troops, and billions of pounds that could have been spent on our nhs,,,,,,,,,,simples!

I haven't insisted anything. I'm saying that escaping a war zone is the reason why people are supposedly seeking to flee. In which case, Britain is a lot further than many other places where no bombs are dropping.
Or do we now have our doors open to anyone who doesn't like their government and has a preference for Britain?

This is a question of numbers. There will be no end to the strife in that region and in fact things will only get worse as population increases. That is an unavoidable conclusion. We will always have an ever increasing queue of refugees along side all the other migrants and they will all use resources and have loads of children.
What you classify them as will have no bearing on that.
