'We want to help refugees'
The UK is to provide resettlement to "thousands" more Syrian refugees in response to the worsening humanitarian crisis, David Cameron has announced.
He said the extra refugees would come from UN camps bordering Syria, and not from among people already in Europe.
Britain would act with its "head and heart", he said, as he pledged to find long-term solutions to the crisis.
Victoria Derbyshire heard the views of a panel of guests, who want to help refugees and migrants, just as the PM made the announcement.
David Charles cycled along with 80 others to the migrant camp in Calais - they then left the bikes for those in the camp. Paul Lane delivered camping equipment, clothes and shoes that he has been collecting from donors. Kelly Scott says she wants to take refugees into her own home and Rupert Wolfe Murray was one of those who signed an online petition calling for the UK to take in more refugees.
