DEATHS OF ASYLUM SEEKERS

Motion Text

That this House is horrified at the death of fifty eight asylum seekers in a lorry entering the United Kingdom from Belgium; sends its deepest sympathy to their families and friends; recalls the deaths of other asylum seekers trying to enter Europe with the deepest regret; and resolves to seriously examine the economic, social and political desperation that causes victims to attempt to flee to Europe, rather than looking for even more draconian measures against asylum seekers.
