The Home Office is understood to be about to urgently speed up its operation to rescue unaccompanied migrant children stranded in Calais, with more than 100 expected to be bussed to Britain in the next four days. Williams told the House of Lords that 14 children arrived on Monday, 13 on Tuesday and 12 on Wednesday. At the moment in Calais there are 1,020, 14 have come here, that leaves 1,006 to accommodate. It is threatening legal action on behalf of 30 children and has criticised the Home Office for being slow and inefficient in its interventions. Childhood friends and neighbours Ahmed and Muhammed 17 years old who had already been rescued from Calais waited for him outside Lunar House.
