A Conservative government minister, has gone to war against
Micky Mouse, and has been accused of "losing
sight of humanity" after his intervention at refugee centre in Kent.
The Conservative immigration minister, Robert Jenrick, gave
orders that mural cartoons of Micky Mouse and Baloo, from the Jungle Book,
which were displayed in a children's asylum centre for lone children in Kent,
should be removed as they were too welcoming and gave out the wrong message.
Some of the children arriving in the UK are as young as nine.
The order was condemned as callous, cruel, and Dickensian. It
is believed that staff at the reception centre for small boat arrivals in Kent,
were appalled by the order and were opposed to removing the murals.
Home Office sources declined to comment on claims that staff
had opposed Jenrick's instruction. Robert Jenrick, defended his actions and
said the murals had been removed because they were not "age-appropriate."
