French police try to move Syrian
refugees seeking asylum in UK
One refugee, a 24-year-old English literature graduate from Aleppo, who did not want to be named, told the Guardian by phone:
"We just want to appeal for asylum in the UK. We don't hold any hope from the French government. We hope that the British government will show some of the humanity it is famous for. People are desperate. The two people on the roof threatening to jump are proof of that – one has lost two brothers, he has nothing left to lose. I'm so worried about my family back in Aleppo but they wanted me to go."
