What did Ben & Jerry’s say?

The multi-national company said in a tweet: “Hey @PritiPatel we think the real crisis is our lack of humanity for people fleeing war, climate change and torture. We pulled together a thread for you…”

It then went on to detail, in a series of sub-tweets, why the increase of illegal crossings across the Channel should not be viewed inhumanely.
