Rejected petition Honour our commitment to child refugees - Honour the Dubs Amendment.

The government has reneged on our commitment to child refugees, having agreed to take only 350. The Dubs Amendment to the immigration bill was voted through on the undestanding that we would take at least 3,000 young people, who are without family and prone to suffer from neglect and exploitation.
