@BBCBreaking This is such heart-breaking news.#RIP to these brave souls trying to forge a better life as any human should be entitled to do -
@M_Corbett@BBCBreaking so why don't they stay in Africa and that instead of trying to get it for free (from taxpayers) in Europe? -
@Hazeydavey69 Also probably fleeing situations you or I can't possibly comprehend. Situations I daresay aided by first world involvement -
@strathkilliefm yes I agree bob geldorf has a lot to answer for. If he had kept his nose out there wouldn't be as many coming here now -
@Hazeydavey69 Geldof didn't come first. Arms and arms transport, unfair trade and slavery did. -
@strathkilliefm I bet a few of them treading water right now would sooner have a nice cushy job in the alabama cotton fields - 1 more reply
