Does he have a case for asylum or not?
It's not a question for you & me on Twitter.
He has a right to ask at the border for asylum & to have his case heard - and to be treated humanely in the process.
Maybe his claim is successful, maybe not. But he can ask. That's the law.

The EU's approach - "let them all die" - is completely counter to the law and spits on decades of practical experience and legal knowledge, not to mention the EU's founding principles.
It is also against our basic humanity.
