Tim Farron arrived in Greek island of Lesvos (Lesbos) this morning to speak with refugees arriving from Turkey, fleeing conflict in the Middle East.





We can see here the numbers of dinghys and life jackets abandoned on the beaches. “Something I would barely risk on lake Windermere.”

25 boats with around 50 ppl each arrived on this Lesvos beach yesterday. It was apparently quite clear before then. pic.twitter.com/B8SYGYo8ZZ — Frances Perraudin (@fperraudin) October 27, 2015

Tim is due to be on Radio 5 live at 1245 today. Worth listening in.
