More details
I fell like British Citizens have took a lot of responsibilities and tried so hard to find a way to fly back to their own families , some with luck some with none.
This event has took everyone by surprise , if I can say , and left us with not many option to survive abroad , we urge the UK government or whoever is on charge , to help us , to get us home back to our families ; as we would much rather be next to our family to give them support as much as we would love to support our country.
