Rejected petition Suspend all visa requirements for Ukrainian refugees.
Rejected on
We want the UK to play our part in helping Ukrainian citizens who have no other option but to flee the unlawful invasion of their country. Suspend all visa requirements for Ukrainian citizens entering the UK and allow refugees refuge in the UK.
Ukrainian citizens are fleeing their home country to the west. We urge you to follow Ireland, Poland and Hungary and to suspend visa requirements allowing refugees to flee to the UK.
