According to the United Nations’ refugee agency, the UNHCR, 7,165 men, women and children live in the Mavrovouni camp, a rudimentary facility of tents overlooking the sea. It was constructed in a matter of days after fires gutted Moria, the island’s holding centre, displacing about 12,500 people overnight. Since the blazes, more than 5,000 asylum seekers have been transferred to the mainland.
Sounding the alarm in November, Human Rights Watch said authorities had failed to carry out comprehensive lead testing or soil remediation before moving migrants to the EU-funded temporary site, which was a firing range from 1926.
We’re supposed to carry out those long and expensive tests and recoveries in an emergency?
To argue that the place isn’t perfect and perhaps it should be moved is fine. To whinge about not spending three months testing when things have to be done now is not.
I’m sure the camp residents are free to return to whichever desert shithole they came from, any time they want.
Fires gutted Moria?
Who is out looking for the Balrog?
The demand is to get them to the mainland so they can be released, all move to London and start raping White girls are quickly as possible.
This is what these invaders want. It is what the NGOs want. Hence the former burn down their camp and the latter whine.
To whinge about not spending three months testing when things have to be done now is not.
Sure, but that only works if you’re dealing with honest people arguing in good faith. The NGOs, UN, etc. don’t care about logic, reasonableness, or common sense – they just want you to have MORE MIGRANTS. Their tactics, always and everywhere, are to raise every objection real or imaginable so they can fuck your country with MORE MIGRANTS.

This fire, start by accident did it?
The number of genuine asylum seekers heading to Europe is pretty much zero. We don’t need camps, we need to be dumping them on the nearest African beach.
@MC: or as close as the helicopters can get to the beach. I’m not fussy.

I wonder who that might be? Oh yes:

It seems odd to me that Israeli NGO’s are bringing Syrian ‘refugees’ into Europe but not into Israel which is literally on the doorstep. I’m sure there’s a perfectly reasonable explanation though…
Steady on Tim. I’m all in favour of dragging out environmental concerns like this. Imagine the headlines: “Tens of thousands of refugees stranded as Greek authorities dawdle over environmental assessments”. Complete with quote from the Greek minister of housing safety: “In this post-Grenfell world, we must take every precaution to ensure that the new accommodation is as safe as possible.”
2015 – “Fifteen IsraAid volunteers are working on the Greek island of Lesbos . . .”
2020- “Meanwhile, IsraAID’s four-person team is in lockdown in nearby Mytilene . . .”
Israel, like every other Western nation, has some small number of ideologues running around trying to save the world, the whale and the woggies. Jonathan sees the Jewish Conspiracy at work.

Careful with the donation though. Would have to go through the banking system and we all know who controls that.
Jonathan would be amazed at the numbers of nice, middle-class, English girls busily ‘aiding’ refugees. Just haven’t managed to work out which super-secret squirrel conspiracy they are running.
Recusant,
You mean you haven’t been keeping up with the editorial direction of Teen Vogue?

Europeans people bringing ‘refugees’ into Europe are one thing, I consider them to be ignorant and misguided victims of propaganda. Non Europeans bringing ‘refugees’ into Europe but not their own country is quite another thing…

Bleedin’ obvious isn’t it? Who wouldn’t try to send Syrian refugees as far away as possible? You don’t need a hook nose, long bony fingers and a hotline to the lizard overlords for that.

Well me. I would have thought Turkey was far enough.
I know I have form here, but I would say that too much bad blood has been spilled in Europe. It is very hard for people who identify as Jews not to think of their neighbours as potential killers. They have to think of it in a way we don’t
It means that the cultural norm in the Jewish community is to look at the weaker party and identify with them. To oppose the stronger party. That is especially true if one of them is, say, Polish.
That is even more true of liberal Jews who have little of their religion left except the fatuous “Tikkum Olam” or Repairing the World. It is fatuous because it means nothing much. Take trannies. Doing the right thing could mean getting them the treatment they need. But if you start from the position that normal people are all Nazis, then obviously that is not the position you are going to take. You will support whatever position annoys the majority the most. I am willing to bet there is not a single Reform Jewish organisation that does not want trannies in little girls’ bathrooms.
Likewise it is not hard to see what position will be culturally easiest for Reform Jewish groups to take when it comes to Syrian refugees.
