Rejected petition Don't stop the Dubs scheme - bring refugee children to the UK as promised

David Cameron promised the UK would take in 3,000 vulnerable children from Syria. The Government have backtracked today - hoping to 'bury bad news', and only bring in 350. The UK has a proud tradition of protecting children in peril - don't let us down.
