        @BBCBreaking Is there no compassion left in this country? I am so sad. Have you all been brainwashed by the government? Callous people

        @BBCBreaking Let us remember the undue haste to invade Afghanistan & destabilise the region. Refugees are the result of this.

        @Paulcasp78 @BBCBreaking They'd probably be treated badly, because it's not as democratic and compassionate as the UK's supposed to be.
