Destitute and Desperate Asylum Seekers and Migrants

Syria

25 Nov 2021 – It was with deep sadness that on Wed 23 Nov 2021 the world watched in horror the news that 27 people had drowned in the English Channel when their flimsy dinghy overturned in the sea in an attempted crossing from Calais to Dover.

We also will not focus on the growing demonization…
