i revealed the Home Office ordered a Mickey Mouse mural be painted over at the Kent Intake Unit for asylum seekers Ophelia, also eight, said they felt inspired to make their own pictures to send to the children housed at the centre. She said: “It made me feel really sad and angry, because some people in the world aren’t being very nice to them, and I think they should be welcomed everywhere.”
Darcey, eight, said: “As soon as I heard that those paintings were being painted over, I almost cried, because I don’t think people should be treated like that because we don’t know what they’re going through.” Talking about the Government, Ophelia added: “I think they should listen to us and change their mind and start being kind to the refugees and giving them things.”
