French president François Hollande on Saturday hit back at the UK as the row between the two countries over the fate of hundreds of unaccompanied children still living in the Calais migrant camp became increasingly acrimonious. “We want children to be going to child-appropriate accommodation but our huge concern is that these children will become a massive flight risk. Calais Action said at least 14 children were left on the site on Friday night with nowhere to go. That’s completely unacceptable.”The problem of how to care for the children has become a source of bitter division between France and the UK. Her claims were rejected by French officials.
