We watched Alex Crawford reporting for Sky News yesterday as her and her cameraman illegally entered Myanmar on a fishing boat to report on the situation. The conditions are appalling,people are starving,some have been beaten,shot,raped,people are starving,babies are being born on the beach and when they get to Bangladesh conditions are appalling. Some say it is ethnic cleansing,some say genocide.
I am pretty hard as a rule but that filming so upset me. Surely it is time for the World to act and this really does put the silly arguments re BREXIT into perspective.

How true, but it's the same old ones who cough up the money. "The World", most of it, just sticks it's head in the sand, especially the wealthy Middle East.
