Rejected petition Grant 3000 unaccompanied child refugees asylum in UK as agreed in Dubs scheme.

Unaccompanied child refugees are some of the most vulnerable people in the world, and currently number in the tens of thousands. Last year, the government agreed to grant asylum to 3000 of them. That number has now been capped at just 350. We must not turn our backs on these children.
