One young refugee's extraordinary story

He's just seven years old and has made an epic journey with his elder brother from his former home in Afghanistan, through Pakistan, Iran and Turkey before stowing away in a lorry at Calais. Ahmad was found in the back of that lorry in Leicester after sending out a desperate phone message seeking help. Two months on, we've tracked him down to a hostel in Birmingham and he's been telling Jackie Long his extraordinary story and his hopes for a new life in Britain.
The report was produced for Channel 4 News by Katie Barlow and Studio 9 Films.

I expect the older 'brother' is actually the boy's father, France isn't dangerous, they obviously don't speak English so why didn't they stay in France?

perhaps you should interview the 20 year old male refugees that make up the majority of these refugees, not cute kids, mothers, more friendly people coming into the EU...

Knock Knock, can you think straight?

Glorifying illegal activity in Calais?

[@thomasalvarez6456]

Hardly

Katie Barlow, who made this film for Channel 4, is the partner of "comedian" Jeremy Hardy, who gets to go on BBC and pontificate about the referendum.
Both should be in jail for aiding illegal immigration.

For what reason, most of the middle east is on fire.. by bombing, crime, and majorly war.
If you said any reason with an actual statement then go on a head but if not.. then I don't see a clear reason why.

He is a child whose life has been torn apart. You racist. Even if it was just adults coming over, what have they done? Why don't they deserve a safe home just as much as you?
