How exactly do we handle bona-fide refugees? Did the Dubs Amendment, which was agreed, actually show us in our best humanitarian light?
Then of course there is the small matter of WINDRUSH. We asked for help, they paid their fares and answered the call then our gloriously 'hostile environment' kicks some of them out.
On the issue of Muslim (or Muslim influenced) countries accepting refugees, aren't you conveniently overlooking the efforts of Turkey and Lebanon with the Syrian refugees? I understand that Lebanon took in some 1.5 million refugees - which I think you might have to agree derails your argument (considering they had a population of circa 6 million).
