It's devastating to see the UK’s lack of response to the refugee crisis in Europe. These are ordinary families fleeing violence and war and we should be doing everything we can to help them.

Please, Mr Murrison, do all you can to push the UK government to do more to help the refugees now. It has been agonising to watch this situation unfold during the summer, and feel impotent to help. You are the voice of your constituents in parliament, and as one of those constituents, I beg you to do whatever is possible to change the course the government seems to have decided on.

As a mother, as a Christian, as a fellow human being, I feel it is essential that this country plays a much greater part in helping these people who are so obviously in need.
