IT’S VERY difficult to show compassion for the so-called challenged migrant. When asked in Greece where they were heading, they replied: “London, because it’s EASY.”
Doesn’t that say it all?
If they are oppressed and in danger, perhaps the humane thing to do would be for the UN to enter their country, remove the dangers for them and allow them to live their lives in safety in their own country.
How easy it is to migrate en masse. Somewhere down the line, the thousands who are waiting to make the journey across Europe must do something for their own case.
Parking their problem on someone else’s drive is not the answer.
At some point they must, with of course the appropriate help, be looking to rebuild their lives in their own countries. Why are we giving millions in foreign aid, where exactly is it going?
