Well done GREAT Torrington!

Great Torrington (Devon, UK)

The north Devon town of Torrington is called ‘Great’ because of its role in the English Civil War. And it is showing a very different type of reaction to refugee resettlement from the one seen in Eltham.

Great Torrington will now be the temporary home of 70 unaccompanied refugee children from the ‘Calais Jungle‘. They will stay at the country retreat of Beam House. The local authority agreed that this was the most suitable location to house the refugees, with all costs paid by the Home Office. The 70 new arrivals will be among the first contingent to arrive in the UK as a result of the ‘Alf Dubs Amendment‘. The Immigration Act amendment, proposed by Lord Dubs (who as a child was brought to Britain via the Kindertransport scheme) will mean that Britain will accept unaccompanied child refugees even if they have no ties to the UK.

The Daily Telegraph is already stirring up trouble, emphasising only negative comments from a handful of locals. But most locals are not only uncritical. They are actually welcoming the refugees. Indeed, most are proud that their town is one of the first in Britain to offer such accommodation.

The Plough Arts Centre – which is the cultural hub of the town – has offered free film showings to these displaced youngsters. And Great Torrington Mayor Margaret Brown has given her full support to the refugee initiative, saying:

Since the crisis started to evolve, locals have been contacting us asking for a way to help, so we are ready.
Local MP Geoffrey Cox added:

I strongly believe that this country must respond compassionately to the plight of children caught up in the dangerous situation that has been allowed to develop in Calais.

THis is the actual title of that "article"

While the far-right peddles hate, one Devon town reminds us what compassion looks like





Some tin pot blog operation with a total agenda

"The team at The Canary believe a free, fair and fearless media is the bedrock of a functioning democracy"


from that "article"


the far-right peddles hate

the right-wing press and its ideological bedfellows have been at the forefront of a campaign against accepting refugees.

Like in Britain, the right-wing press in Australia has drummed up hatred of refugees

The Daily Telegraph is already stirring up trouble, emphasising only negative comments from a handful of locals.

The UN has slammed some British newspapers for “sustained and unrestrained anti-foreigner abuse” in recent years. And people have even been attacked for not speaking English.

Right-wing groups at home and abroad have sought to push hatred over compassion. But we are seeing more and more clear examples of exactly how such hatred can be defeated.

Yes, and what is wrong with that title, or any of the statements from this online news source?
Do you have a comment in relation to the content?

It's in the top 100 media publications ...above 'the Spectator' I might add and I see that quoted regularly here
It's mocked by the Telegraph eh? No surprise there then.

Anyhoo back on topic.

and the minute one camp of economic migrants is destroyed another pops up...

France doing nothing it seems and happy for them to try (illegally) to come here) NO Syrians all are East African migrants and looks like all men and all in one age demographic. Ignore the inflammatory vid clip caption as this is an actual sky news clip.

Anyone with half a brain cell could have predicted this being so.

Just as, if we HAD have taken ALL those Calais Camp 5,000, 6,000 or 10,000 (however many) NON refugees, that would have sent the message back to the other 34 million (or whatever) would-be Economic Migrants worldwide, that: "Hey - It works boy." and Calais would soon be one humongous camp.

They ALL are already clued up that:

a) Once in the UK illegally, it is IMPOSSIBLE to remove them.
b) If they are apprehended in the UK by Border Force, they CANNOT do ANYTHING to them if the illegals have no documents and passports.
c) For the VAST majority of apprehended illegals, they ARE released into HOTELS and GUEST HOUSES paid for by the UK TAXPAYER, pending 'ENQUIRIES' - from which 99% of them disappear without trace.

The government keeps NO RECORDS of just how many ILLEGALS are actual in the UK, and there could be as many as 10 MILLION for all we know.

NO, I AM NOT REFERRING TO GENUINE REFUGEES OR GENUINE CHILDREN HERE, FOR THOSE WHO HAVE DIFFICULTY DECIPHERING WHAT I AM WRITING.

The charities say they had to house 100s of children who were left in the camp, French officials say they were people who came after the camp was cleared So they would be rehoused and could claim asylum...who to believe

Rubbish, those aiding the kids were witnessing them being sent back to the then burning camp as processing had finished.
Horrific, humanitarian omnishambles!

If any of the immigrants/refugees refuse to get on the transport because they want to stay in Callais then simply arrest them, offer them asylum if they qualify for it and if not then deport them, how hard can that be.

'As the Calais refugee camp burns, there are few who wish to kill those who flee war, persecution or dictatorship. But it is pointless to pretend there is much support for the cause of refugees. As a group their humanity has been systematically stripped away. They are not like you, or your family, or your neighbours. Rather they are seen as a collective blob composed of faceless deceitful criminals, potential rapists and murderers who will steal homes, jobs and resources. If we believed they were like us or our children, we would not tolerate their mass drownings in the Mediterranean.'

Dead immigrant children washing up on a shore are only good for a few weeks of sympathy, then everyone goes back to thinking immigrants are subhuman because it's easier than facing the reality of the situation.
