Nice to see a positive story about refugees for a change from our Conservative politicians.

David Forman, I have heard nobody opposing support for Afghan families that provided vital support to British forces.

Isn't this MP the same one that said going to a foodbank was a personal choice, not a necessary choice particularly in respect of our service personnel? Apparently they are so well paid they do not have too. The standard of our political class today can't sink any lower, can it?
