@ leon: "Why can't they go to Saudi Arabia or Jordan or Turkey?"
2,700,000 of them *are* in Turkey.
There are 619,000 of them in Jordan.
There are over 1,000,000 in Lebanon.
220,000 have gone to Iraq. Iraq, of all places - but at least it's less dangerous than Syria!
"If they live in my house, then they have to benefit me. If they live in Britain, then they have to benefit Britain. The logic is obvious."
Please explain, in as much detail as you like, how you, Leon, personally provide benefit to your country. I would like to know how you value your enormous personal contribution to making your nation a better place.
