Rejected petition Allow Ukrainian citizens British refuge and temporarily make entry visa free

Visa consessions for Ukrainian citizens do not go far enough. The UK can introduce visa free travel to unite Ukraine families already in the UK, offer a place of refuge for families. Today the UK requires a visa for Ukraine citizens, now almost impossible to obtain without infrastructure due to war.

Britain has always supported displaced families and offered refuge to those whose values reflect our own. Now it is time to do more. Temporarily allow visa free travel to UK from Ukraine.
