Closed Resist calls to accept more Migrants/Regufees and any EU quota system.

Closed on

The government must resist calls to accept more migrants or refugees from the middle east and Africa.

These people are not genuine refugees. Genuine refugees do not pass through up to seven wealthy countries before claiming asylum.

Genuine refugees do not risk the lives of their children in order to shop around for the most generous benefit system.

Why does a refugee refuse to claim asylum in Turkey, Greece, Macedonia, Serbia, Hungary or Austria? These are some of the richest countries in the world and any genuine refugee would jump at the chance to claim asylum and live there.

The British government must resist calls to take in more of these fraudulent refugees who will have only a detrimental effect on Britain.
