Archbishop Justin Welby, addressing the House of Lords, said that while we would all agree that the ‘Jungle’ situation is difficult for the French authorities, he is sure it is significantly more difficult for the 300 unaccompanied children. He recently visited the Marsh Academy near Romney Marsh and saw a school and community caring with the utmost compassion for significant numbers of unaccompanied children. Given that example, he asked, does the government agree that issues of compassion should easily trump those of administrative efficiency, tidiness and narrow definitions of family links; and that we should, therefore, take more children very quickly?
