16% of signatories to my petition on #Refugees so far come from my home constituency, which is perhaps not surprising but illustrates how limited is my reach.

Please, everyone, boost the petition! Also, of course, sign it if you can! Hospitality to strangers in need is surely one of the oldest human laws.

May I bring your attention to a self inflicted wound. You will soon be hearing about a housing crisis like you've never heard of before. Just a thought.
