Force UNHCR to process Calais refugees asylum claims. Provide safe Shelters/heat
The Jungle Refugee camp in Calais has more than 6000 people stranded in limbo - amongst them pregnant women, lone children with family in the UK, and families. They face harsh and life-threatening conditions in winter without heat or sanitation. Action must be taken by UNHCR, France and UK now.

Please refer to this article and any number of other media coverages of the appalling conditions at the encampment.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The UK Government can't require the UNHCR to take this action. We can only accept petitions about things that the UK Government or Parliament are responsible for.
