RE THE 3,000-plus Syrian children that Save The Children charity want brought here.
There are issues that need to be addressed before the ‘suffering children’  hysteria takes off.
These children are already in a European country.
What guarantees are there that these children are genuinely unaccompanied? Desperate people take desperate measures.
We have already had unaccompanied  ‘children’ discovered who lied about their ages and were in fact young adults, some of whom had university fees paid for them.  
In Kent, we have vulnerable British children being moved out of the county to accommodate massive influxes of child asylum seekers.
One doesn’t need to be a clairvoyant. If they are accepted we will witness a sudden appearance of ‘close relatives’ demanding entry to the UK to join their children.
And this excuse of a Prime Minister, will give in.
This in turn will encourage further instances of lone children being sent on dangerous boat trips. And so the cycle will continue.
I suspect that the Save The Children Charity is doing it not so much for the children’s sake but for the accustomed lifestyle of the fat cats that run it, with one eye on future Honours lists.
