The UK will accept up to 20,000 refugees from Syria over the next five years, David Cameron has told MPs.

The prime minister said the UK had a "moral responsibility" to resettle refugees living in camps bordering Syria while also doing all it can to end the conflict in the country.

Vulnerable children and orphans would be prioritised in what would be a "national effort", Mr Cameron said.

France earlier announced that it would take in 24,000 refugees over the next two years.

Firstly not all homeless people in Britain want to be helped, but we should help the ones who actually want to be helped as well as the refugees. Some homeless people choose to live that way, and if that's what they want then we should let them get on with it, and help ode homeless who want to be helped as well as the refugees.

Secondly, there are around 610,000 unoccupied homes in the UK along with a further 200,000 vacant settlements, more than enough to house 20,000 refugees over a 5 year period.

Na, giving foreign people houses and shit before anyone else who actually lives here is way more important.
