Absolutely heartbreaking that there have been more unavoidable deaths in the channel overnight, how many children must die?

"Smashing the gangs", "Stop the Boats" or what ever three word slogan is next does not mean anything unless we remove the business model that the smugglers rely on.

We need safe routes for refugees, we need to process their applications efficiently but with humanity and fairness, and when they are here they should be treated with the dignity and respect that all humans deserve.

My thoughts go out to those effected by this tragedy.
