I thank them for their presentation and the great work that they do.

It is not enough to accept 200 children. It is a disgrace that we are accepting only 200, yet I am thankful that we have agreed to accept them, that we are doing something, but it is not enough. It is also not enough to accept 4,000 migrants.

I have listened to Ms Finn speak about refugees from Syria and Turkey, but I wonder if people are coming here from Palestine?
