    Syria - what happens next?

    I think i have watched and listened to a few new programmes about the fall of asad in syria. What makes me sad is that they always end up finding a Syrian in the UK and then asking them are they going to return to Syria now despite the person having lived in the UK for over a decade. I'm not...
