You just cannot take what they say as true
Two thirds of those whose age was disputed were lying, I'd presume that those who weren't disputed were clearly children, and I think it was approx 1 in 5 that were disputed? (not sure on that exactly but it's around that figure) so it would be somewhere around 15% that were lying. That's still a high percentage of course (although it becomes much smaller if you start discussing 'all migrants' not just 'child migrants'), but I thought I'd point it out anyway to highlight the fact that depending on the source, you just cannot take what they say as true

Horrific mindset. Besides, its the white men in suits who are historically the most evil. These refugees could be a good influence on us.
