Tynwald set for further debate on matter
A Labour peer, who was the architect of a 2016 scheme which saw hundreds of unaccompanied children come to live in the UK, is urging the Manx Government to rethink its stance on Syrian refugees.
Lord Dubs has been speaking ahead of a Tynwald debate on the matter this week.
He recognises the Island has made humanitarian aid donations but says we all have a responsibility to do more.
Lord Dubs recently spoke to a Syrian student who finished his education at a camp in Jordan and asked what his future plans were:
Yellow weather warning overnight for ice
MLC calls for 'wider conversation' on how constitutional changes are made
Foodbank 'run off feet' as donations decline
Fire crews respond to 'smoke and chemical smell' in Port St Mary
