It documents how governments block assistance to people in times of crisis, focusing on the European Migration Crisis. Jamie asks William why European governments have been continuing to push anti-migration initiatives. William shares examples he came across where governments were stifling or intimidating NGO’s who assist refugees. Jamie and William also discuss the Mediterranean Sea and the lack of support from refugees who travel across that water.
