Aylan, the toddler who drowned fleeing Syria, was just three years old. His town was under attack by Isis. His five year old brother and his mum also died trying to reach safety. Yet our prime minister has just said ‘we won't take any more refugees’. He thinks that most of us don't care. But 38 Degrees members do care. We don't want Britain to be the kind of country that turns its back as people drown in their desperation to flee places like Syria. So let's stand up for Britain's long tradition of helping refugees fleeing war. Let's show the Prime Minister that we, the people of the UK, are proud to do our part and provide refuge to people in their hour of need.

We have a proud tradition of helping those in need and this government lacks compassion, understanding and leadership.

When a three year old boy washes up on shore because he was trying to flee a country which is smashed by war, humanity must act, all of us, not because of race, religion, borders or anything else but for the safety of children like Aylan http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-34133210

Yesterday a dead child's body was washed up on the beach in Turkey, 71 people died of asphyxiation in a van in Austria, hundreds of migrants are fleeing their war torn countries to seek a new life. Thousands of people are running for their lives, let's proudly give them somewhere to run.

I cannot sit back and watch the images of the suffering occuring in Europe at the moment, and listen to David Cameron time and time again bluring the boundaries between the issues of migration and the refugees crisis. Not in my name, morally we need to do our part in welcoming these people into our country.

The refugee crisis is the worst humanitarian disaster to affect Europe and its neighbours since WW2. We must act now to protect those who are fleeing a war-zone which was of the West's making.

These journalists are accused of working with and for two enemies??? These arrests are more to silence the Turkish press. Free them and allow them to continue their work. This is outrageous behaviour and achieves nothing but grief.

Syrian refugees are leaving their beloved country due to the civil war and pressure from Assad and ISIS. Syrian nationals are experiencing persecution and genocide , depending on race and faith. In World War Two Britain offered sanctuary to thousands of Jews fleeing persecution. Once again we should open our country and our homes to these people. This is a global humanitarian crisis. These are not economic migrants: they are refugees of a crisis of which Britain is partly responsible. We owe it to these people, as fellow humans , to extend sanctuary as relief from their suffering. It is purely by chance that they were born in Syria and we in the UK. Were the situation to be reversed we would hope the same from them.

The Great British People and the real UK stand for World Peace and International Friendship. David Cameron has sponsored terrorists and a fascist regime in Kiev. If there is one person who needs removal from the UK it is David Cameron.

What sort of Nation are we and our government. WHERE IS THE LOVE AND COMPASSION GONE. Please sign.

The people wouldn't take such risks if it didn't offer them better hope than they had at home. They will still come regardless and boats will still capsize and children will still drown if we do nothing to help reduce the amount. This is a human tragedy and we must increase what we are doing to help the victims.

People who are struggling to survive, should not be charged for calling numbers to arrange benefits.
