Not to put too fine a point on it, but what did anyone expect when you stick already traumatised people into effectively prison camps. Use of camps, and their conditions, have repeatedly been shown to be seriously harmful to the individuals trapped in them. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Spoke on BBC 5 Live this morning about Labour's policy of denying citizenship to refugees based on manner of entry. Long and short of it is that it will have no impact on channel crossings, it will violate international law, and it will leave people seeking safety in limbo and facing more fear.
