One can only imagine how easy it would be to shuffle children around during such a humanitarian crisis. How easy would it be for them to take any child they please and then turn around and just say "oops sorry we lost 'em"
Exactly. When they closed down the Calais immigrant "jungle" it was widely reported that a number of unaccompanied children were admitted for care into the UK (although the news focussed on those asserting to be children who were in fact much, much older in order to gain UK access). However, despite many enquiries no one I know of as yet has been able to determine exactly where those children were "placed" for care. In fact we were surprised to find that this is not necessarily documented.

The report also said 20 British girls had been victims of human trafficking, in cases where they were raped and exploited by gangs of Asian men.
