We should do everything we can to help.
immigrants are always given the blame, whether it be for the strain on the NHS or the housing crisis. What about the bankers, who ruined our economy, that we bailed out who still get bonuses? What about the millionaires in this country who aren't paying their taxes?
They're the ones putting a strain on our resources.

As other middle eastern dictators have proven, they are great at running countries.
Like when we left Assad to continue governing Syria.
More than 191,000 people have been killed in the Syrian conflict up to April, the UN human rights chief says. Navi Pillay said the figure was "probably an underestimate" and criticised what she called "international paralysis" on the issue. The figure is more than double the UN estimate given a year ago.22 Aug 2014
We should take some, but to say we are the problem is so, so wrong.

If we don't then we should be ashamed. We do need to resolve the source problem but right now people are dying and we need to help.

Agree to this wacky EU demands then triple that. It'll be open house. Just glad dopey dork Ed Miliband didn't win as he'd have sent cruise ships to bring them over.
Glad the Tories won as they have said funk off

As others have said, if we're going to start wars and then bail, the least we can do is offer asylum to the innocent victims.
Yes, we know, there will be bad eggs that come in and I'm all for asylums having to live by our terms but to flat out reject any offer of asylum to these people is heartless. I can't imagine what they've been through and the desperate state they are in where they are willing to risk their own and their family's lives to get to Europe. It could be argued that with that commitment to living here they deserve to live here more than wasters that scrounge off the state.
