The UK should have taken in orphaned or alone children from the refugee camps in Jordan, Turkey, Greece etc - NOT from Calais.
You could even argue that children would be better off with people with a common culture as them. Bad enough being an orphan in a war torn country - but to then be transported to another country, that is culturally very different, where they dont speak your language or have the same beliefs etc - then that would add possibly more anxiety on to the kids.
