On a final point, I agree that 4,000 is not near enough, given the size of our population, given the relative wealth of our country in comparison to where these people come from and given what other countries in Europe have done and the scale of the problem worldwide that has been caused by absolute destruction wreaked. I am not sure we will even take in 4,000. I made public the fact that we have facilitated the destruction by allowing Shannon to be used as a military base. What number in total should we be aiming to bring in?
