- 01:02:02 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:20:16 So I came across a woman from Syria today. Walking along the hard shoulder of the motorway.
- 01:02:05 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:20:53 Pushing a pushchair. In it her two year old son. Asleep and oblivious. A handbag hanging from the handles. And a bag of apples.
- 01:02:10 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:21:31 Her four year old held her hand as she pushed it. The car headlights lighting them up. Then they would fade again in the darkness
- 01:02:14 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:23:23 They walked like that from the central station in Budapest. Walked for eight and more hours.
- 01:02:19 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:23:24 You know what it's like to walk with three kids that age? That far? With a few belongings?
- 01:02:25 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:23:24 Her six year old daughter wrapped in a thin blanket. She told me her husband was in Germany. That she was going to find him.
- 01:02:30 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:23:31 The kids were amazing. Like so many have been. Most actually. But then the distance mounted. And this little family slowed.
- 01:02:34 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:24:11 The boy started to complain. Then cry. And he said no more. The daughter looked helpless. And mum burst into tears. There on the motorway.
- 01:02:38 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:24:46 She shook and crumpled over the pushchair. Her baby slept on. The cars flashed by. And mum and son cried. And trembled.
- 01:02:42 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:26:19 They were helped. The boy carried on shoulders. The pushchair pushed. And mum and daughter moved forwards slowly. Mum limping.
- 01:02:46 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:27:02 And that was how it was. For another three kilometres or more. Until they found their friend and stopped.
- 01:02:50 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:27:50 They lay out blankets on the grass verge. The little boy found his teddy bear. The girl wrapped herself up. They lay down.
- 01:02:54 Retweeted @BBCMatthewPrice 2015-09-04 23:29:13 And still the cars passed. And re baby? Slept through the lot. He will never remember how he once passed through Hungary.

- 18:35:30 Retweeted @billmon1 18:34:55 If Survey USA poll is right, everything I thought I knew about US politics is wrong:
"Trump getting 25% of black vote & 30% of Hispanic." - 18:38:05 Retweeted @billmon1 18:36:55 if Trump really can pull quarter of black voters and nearly a third of Hispanics, head for border now, because this sucker is going down.
