Focus on equal access to assisted death rather than risks of legalisation for oppressed groups wrongheaded, MPs and campaigners say
MINISTERS have been accused of doing nothing to find almost 80 child asylum-seekers who have disappeared from a Home Office hotel in Brighton.
Hove Labour MP Peter Kyle told the Commons today that “nothing is happening” to locate the 76 children reported missing from a single hotel in his constituency, despite fears they might have been abducted by traffickers.
A whistleblower at Home Office contractor Mitie told the Observer on Sunday that he had seen children taken outside the hotel by criminal gangs and bundled into cars.
