Now Prime Minister Andy Burnham has proposed bringing up to 4,000 of those still in Ceuta to Britain, with the first arrivals expected as early as the first week of September. Burnham has previously called the situation a ‘humanitarian crisis’ that demands an urgent response, insisting that Britain is ‘ready to assist.’ Under the plan, the migrants would be housed in London hotels that the government has labelled “secure spaces” for asylum seekers. https://dailyexpress.uk.com/news/politics/2240339/burnhams-migrant-gamble-thousands-stranded-in-ceuta-to-be-brought-to-uk
