H&F Council directs Afghan refugees to dog club

The Mirror reports on our Council's new strategy for assisting refugees fleeing the Afghanistan conflict, which is to refer them to a dogs club. Specifically a fan club for Afghan Hounds.

Coming in the same week as having made numerous voluntary services homeless themselves, including those who deal with refugees, this latest gaffe doesn't fill you with confidence about how very vulnerable people are likely to fare in the era of cuts.
