Children and women are being raped by traffickers inside a refugee camp in northern France, according to detailed testimony gathered ahead of fresh legal action against the UK government’s approach to the welfare of unaccompanied minors.
Corroborating accounts from volunteers, medics, refugees and other officials reveal that sexual abuse is common within the large camp at Dunkirk and that children and women are forced to have sex by traffickers in return for blankets or food or the offer of passage to the UK.
Legal proceedings will be issued by London-based Bindmans against the Home Office, which is accused of acting unfairly and irrationally by electing to settle only minors from the vast Calais camp that closed last October, ignoring the child refugees gathered in Dunkirk, 40 miles away along the coast.
On Wednesday the government’s approach to child refugees provoked widespread indignation when the home secretary, Amber Rudd, announced the decision to end the “Dubs scheme”, having allowed just 350 children to enter the UK, 10% of the number most MPs and aid organisations had been led to believe could enter.
A petition of 50,000 signatures was handed in to Theresa May on Saturday by Labour peer Alf Dubs amid growing cross-party anger at the decision.
Caroline Robinson of Bindmans said: “Our clients call upon the home secretary to reconsider her position.”
Accounts from those at the camp, which currently holds up to 2,000 refugees, of whom an estimated 100 are unaccompanied minors, portray a squalid site with inadequate security and atrocious living conditions. The Dunkirk Legal Support Team says the failure of the authorities to guard the site has allowed the smugglers to take control.

My give-a-damn is broken. Maybe Le Pen will ship them back to whatever sh*thole they came from.
...it was the way they lived from where they were...(if that makes sense)
Better than “enduring” rape, torture and murder” at the sh*thole they crawled out of. Where is the UN? Why aren’t they doing something in the home countries of these so called “refugees”? The worthless UN has got to go!
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!
WHERE is the UN????????????
Color me surprised....
Imagine rape, beating and Muslims in the same story...
How can that be?
——Accounts from those at the camp, which currently holds up to 2,000 refugees,——
2,000 people are not a lot of people to get livable conditions and security set up....
What the hell are the French doing?
I realize these people were dumped on their door...but it isn’t like its 20,000 people...
Sounds like there needs to be refugees from the refugee camp.
These refugees can’t even be nice to each other, much less the people in the public they are supposed to meld into at some point.
Send them packing!
IT is France’s fault for allowing the pestiferous pustule to exist.
They should be rounding them up, and shipping them back.
And what should have been expected? They are MOHAMMEDANS !!!
Why aren’t these refugees in a military-type camp or does France no longer have enough soldiers to insure the women’s and children’s safety?
A few more rapes and it’ll almost be as dangerous as a college campus/s
Just like back home, right?
