"Some 2,000 migrant children have been separated from their parents in the past few months after their families tried to cross the US border illegally."

Wow !!! 2000 children with their parents trying to enter illegally in just six weeks, how many others are trying to get in illegally who don't have children ? The scale of the problem is clearly immense, best of luck sorting that one out Mr T.

"The UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Filippo Grandi, has told the BBC the Trump administration's "zero-tolerance" policy towards illegal immigration is unacceptable.
"It is absolutely wrong to separate children from their families in any circumstances and particularly when people are in distress as, for example, people that are fleeing from violence and persecution, as is the case for people in Central America," he said."


I'd like to ask Mr Grandi, just what is the UN doing about the violence and persecution in Central America that these poor people are fleeing from, besides moaning about Trump ? Not the sort of question the BBC would ask, so I'll ask it instead.
