MEE's reporter Mary Atkinson is in Hungary's capital Budapest covering the refugee crisis:

"The owner of a clothes shop near the station says they've been extremely busy serving asylum seekers this week. 'It's mostly men buying things, not so many women. And of course they are buying things for their children, like socks and shoes. Mostly people need warm clothes - the weather here is very cold for them these days. It hasn't been difficult - people can point at what they want.'"
