Which is exactly the point I was making. Someone suggested that the poor fuckers in the photo weren't refugees because they'd passed through the first "officially" safe country they'd landed in.

Was that me? I used the term "migrant" because it's neutral.
The BBC uses it also for that reason.
Also where that photo was taken they would have passed through at least 4 safe countries and could have claimed their rights of asylum under international law.
