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:
TT launches sustainability review into Sidecar class
Manxman sailing cancelled following late arrival into Douglas
Calls for 'transitional protections' for migrants on five-year immigration path
'No decisions have been made' over future of Ballabeg Methodist Church
