1. Thread on #Albanian #child #asylum seekers...
Listening to @bbc5live this morning I feel commentators are wrongly describing the situation - which involves a staggering number of children. My thoughts:
Many are not fleeing anything in Albania - making asylum moot. However... 2. Most will have been groomed and recruited in Albania by OC groups ahead of travel to the UK. Their reality is not "child asylum seekers" but "child victims of human trafficking" - who need safeguarding, not 'processing'.
The fact so many go/have gone missing is inevitable.
