Minister Robert Jenrick says it is 'extremely concerning' that about 200 children have gone from hotels.

She urged the government to crack down on the gangs and end its contracts with hotels from where children had gone missing.She also expressed concern about the lack of clarity over whether the Home Office or local councils were legally responsible for the children.

He acknowledged there was "a challenge" about the status of the local authorities in this area but said the government's overall objective was to ensure young people were only kept in the hotels "for a very short period of time". He said the government had no power to detain unaccompanied asylum-seeking children but the police and local authority were "mobilised" to find missing children to ensure their safety.Caroline Lucas - a Green MP in Brighton where some of the children are thought to have gone missing - accused the Home Office of "staggering complacency and incompetence".

"When they managed to get the car to safety they released two child migrants and they arrested one of the members who was driving it - who was a gang leader who was there to coerce the children into crime."

The 16+ ‘children’ will be out there doing god knows what……any children under that age are probably kept for hunting parties! Sick world

That should perhaps teach them not to send any children over!

organized kids trafficking So crazy

What about the 2000 “children” coming over on the boat every day (aged between 18-34)?

'Children' yeah 24 Yr old children

Check on farms, construction sites. They are most likely there.

Wake up, they are not children, they are adults posing as children to get into the asylum application system. Once in, they dissappear

Misleading headline. Reading it, it says 177 Albanian 16 to 18's males have gone off somewhere in just OVER a year. A larger number did go off but came back. Quite a change from the impression a group of kids have suddenly been abducted.

'200 asylum seeking adults claiming to be 14yr old children gone missing' Fixed that for you BBC News.....

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

... what gets me about the housing in the hotels is the secrecy. It wouldn't be half as bad if they didn't block viewing access behind security guards and covered windows. Young men given takeaways for months on expensive phones with nothing to do. Not healthy for the country.

This is a disgraceful, despicable, dereliction of duty by the govt which betrays the children who’ve been taken and shames the entire nation. In a normal democracy it would bring down the govt, but with a compliant media and tepid opposition they’ll lie their way through.

They were 19 year old ‘children’ scammed the system

Lol if they believe theres only 200 gone missing as we know they live in cloud cuckoo land

“Children” with beards. Easy to spot eh?

😥😥

‘Children’

💔💔🤬

SuellaBraverman your chimney sweep business must be booming!

Is this some that have said they were under 18 to claim

SuzanneEvans1 They're currently working in the BBC back offices destroying all Jimmy Saville's films.

Average age 21

‘Children’

They probably are not children at all , and have left to join the organised crime gang , that paid their fare over here .

SuzanneEvans1 Well, if you're running the UK branch of Shave the Children, what do you expect? Don' worry, they'll turn up soon enough on Crimewatch.

They're not children, they're adult males. They haven't been lost, kidnapped or disappeared ... they've simply sloped off to join whatever family, gang or organisation they came here to join in the first place.

Just another Tory failing

Perhaps they've gone to Rwanda

Was happening in 2008 with Chinese girls..

This has all the hallmarks of adults claiming to be children then disappearing once they get into UK.

All the gammon who don't care about little kids being kidnapped by rape gangs because they think they're not white. These probably include Ukrainian kids.

No Apple ID tag?

There's an obvious solution - make all migrants wear electronic locator tags. But the same people who make accusations of complacency and dereliction of duty would condemn the use of tags, wouldn't they?

Heads should roll.

The English nation has been under serious threat since about 1990.

We house these refugees that come over on boats in hotels. Why don’t we house our own people now living on the streets in hotels? It seems the people born here get a worse deal than boat people. It’s madness.

PR BBCRosAtkins Are these missing “children“ anything like this one ? Until they are fully examined and their age scientifically determined , I will no longer believe they are children !

Were they 25 year old children?

Is it possible these ‘children’ were actually adults, like the AsylumSeeker below who has just been found guilty of murdering a 21-year-old in Dorset, after blowing the heads of 2 people in Serbia and drugs charges in 2 other countries? CulturalEnrichment?

Only 200 I thought it would have been more because the system is a total mess

Hold old are these “ children “ ?

Are these more of the 21 year old 'children' we've been hearing about?

'children'

Obviously they are not asylum seekers then. They were trafficked for thier families.

What did we expect bbc ,these poor ppl totally at the mercy of ruthless criminals,, What a nation we've become Care homes kicking kids out naked 1000s upon 1000s of teenage girls raped and abused by grooming gangs Senseless knife murders Crazy nation

Well I never. Children aged between 16-18

Real children or those claiming to be...

Wtf, are you serious!!! How can the government don’t know this information!!

Perhaps once they'd got into UK they became 24 year olds they really are...?

Farage's mates trafficking kids again?

Why can’t the government understand that we the people of this country don’t want illegal immigrants here & stop them, we are not being given numbers or details of Russians, Ukrainians Chinese and Others that we don’t know about WHY!

But the good thing is the crossings have stopped, or does the MSM have better distracting stories to report on......🤔

Did all these so called ‘children’ pay the going rate to get in a dinghy to come here, and what age do you actually class as a child, as most of these children are of working age, and have probably been recruited by the Albanian drugs cartel
