Would Kindertransport be welcomed today?

In the 1930s and through the war, Britain welcomed hundreds of refugee children from Europe.

As Brexit looms, he writes about the importance of giving a hand up to those who need it most. We also look at how the Future Generations bill is the kind of futureproofing we need in a time of uncertainty.
