Rejected petition Open Up Refugee Routes & Waive Visas for Ukrainian Nationals During the War.

Many countries have showed humanity, empathy, & altruism in their response to the war in Ukraine. Many Ukrainian nationals/expats living in the UK have family in the country who have nowhere else to go but to family in the UK.

Open up the refugee routes to save these lives.

More details

Accept Ukrainian nationals as refugees into the UK. Allow all - not just British Passports Holders - the opportunity to be reunited with their families, offer them safety, & a chance to rebuild their lives in safety & security.

There are roughly 38,000 Ukrainian nationals living in Britain - supporting all sectors of our economy. There's numerous others from Eastern Europe & wider International Communities with family there too. Be the Britain that showed such love in previous wars in Europe.
