    Possibly because it was fostering, rather than adoption? Hungary has now allowed the families trapped in Budapest to go to Austria. Some are being bussed, but hundreds of them are walking all the way via the motorway. I really don't believe the posters on this thread who keep saying they...

    Some did more than just click a mouse. Here are a couple of examples of the offers that flooded in over a 24-hour period via the Iceland Review Online: “I’m happy to look after children, take them to kindergarten, school and wherever they need. I can cook for people and show them friendship...

    Some of those people already had train tickets paid for, but were refused permission to get on the train. One train set off and has been halted. There is a lot more to this than just sticking people in a camp and processing them.

    I said turned down in Turkey but didn't elaborate on which bit was turned down. I'm sorry that you thought I was trying to take some moral high ground. That wasn't my intention. I didn't accuse the poster of not getting facts straight. I was trying to put a human story to the many numbers of...

    The family involved weren't trying to live in Europe. If you had read just one article, before judging them, you would have known that the eldest daughter is already in Vancouver. She had offered to sponsor them to go to Canada, but it had been turned down in Turkey. Now her mother, & two...

    France already has more asylum seekers than Britain. Some of the 3000 already have relatives here (or in Canada as my previous post) If you can speak English, then Britain is more likely to have work...

    The little boy that drowned already had a sister in Canada. (From the BBC website) Turkish news agency Dogan said he and the rest of the group were Syrians from the besieged town of Kobane who had fled to Turkey last year to escape advancing militants from the Islamic State (IS) group.
