Ministers urged to rescue children after Dunkirk refugee camp destroyed by fire

Charities and MPs have called on the government to rescue children with links to the UK from the Dunkirk refugee camp, which was destroyed by fire last night.

The French camp was ravaged by a blaze overnight, leaving hundreds of people homeless.

The Safe Passage project say they have identified 80 children in the camp who have relatives in the UK.

Labour MP Yvette Cooper said: "France and Britain need to work together to get these children to safety immediately. Bring back the fast track system now. If they have family in the UK they should be brought here straight away - that's the rules."

I would have thought it is the French government's duty to rescue them.

Quite a coincidence that 80 refugee children from the same camp have relatives in Britain, isn't it?
