Some people give priority to economic migrants whilst others give priority to people in need in their own countries. As, in particular, the views of the former have considerable impact on those the latter support it will only likely serve to harden their resolve.
For many of us charity begins at home, especially as these people do have other options. Many of those coming in attempting to claim 'refugee' status are not even from war-torn Syria but from parts of Africa or Afhganistan and don't meet the criteria for such status. Like it or not many are taking the pee and we don't have the pockets or the inclination to accommodate them.
