Just note…the chances of you getting a stunning 23 year old with daddy issues will probably be the same as you winning the lottery.

they could all get unrestricted betting accounts though !!!
I hope they all get a home as long as they need it.

Read the local authority will get £10,500 per refugee they take in from the government, yet households get just £4200 of it, where is all this money coming from?
Sales of spy camera's gone through the roof today, sales have increaed by 600 fold today and could be in short supply by the end of the Cheltenham festival.
no i meant they get 350 per month for a year as in if they stay 3 u only get paid for 1 (currently)
Theres a good ukulele band in Wigan.
Can see a few wanting to go there.

My answer to this is 2 words-the 2nd word being offski! Would you take ANY stranger into your house? You can't keep them prisoner so you have to give them a key. They will bring their friends in. What happens if they're ill? What happens if they need to travel? what happens if something in your house goes missing. Are you prepared to leave them in your house while you go on holiday. Will your insurance cover you for theft or if your house burns down due to a cigarette left going by a stranger? Utility prices going through the roof so these visitors will be adding markedly to your bill. They won't have money so you'll be feeding them. What if they're ill & you have to get a doctor? Have you tried recently? What if you've been careful to avoid Covid & they bring it into the house? What if a female makes allegations against you? I wouldn't house a stranger for £35 grand a month let alone £350. Your whole life, the life you've worked so hard to achieve, will be changed forever. The war is not the UK public's fault so the UK effing government can eff right off & sort it out for themselves. And to all you liberal do gooders-good luck because you're not living in the real world & don't realise what you're letting yourselves in for. As I said at the beginning of this post, my answer is- eff offski!
I'm so old that it wouldn't matter as my equipment shrivelled up, died & fell off a decade ago.
Mr 1960- it's the public that's being "TAKEN IN" as I'm sure you realise!
Slicer, you shouldn't worry about things so much, cuz if anything does go 'wrong', you can be sure the govt, police and local authorities will be investigating thoroughly...
Rico took 3 in, they had a look inside his gaff & decided to return to their bunker in Mariupol ...

Btw, what a stroke of luck, all covid restrictions being removed just in time for us all to take refugees into our homes.
It's almost as if they knew what was coming...

Mr Deucy- for an honest answer to your question, please rearrange these letters into a well known word: Y S E.
20 years of Afghanistan. 18 years of Iraq. 10 years of Libya. 9 years of Syria. 7 years of Yemen…and this was never, ever a thing.
3 weeks of war in #Ukraine, and here it is.

£350 per family or individual ?? do you have to feed them as well out of that!!!
£350 per household. Feed, cloth, travel, increased electric & gas consumption. A bargain innit!
Why didn't they do this for the dinghy divers and Afghanis, those poor buggers are stuck in hotels.
Think I will leave country and return a dumb refugee? Quids in!
This government are asking us to take a total stranger[s] into our home. Please tell me that it's not already the first of April.
I have room, where do you advertise for single 25yr old females?
asking for a friend.
asking for a friend.
A local paper or any accomodation site, I guess eg a room in exchange for benefit. I heard it's pretty common up North.
There seems to be a great interest among the racing fraternity here.
OTT. I think providing education, medical, financial, housing and social assistance are sufficiently adequate. Maybe the buy-to-let merchants and country houses occupiers could step-up and offer theirs.
presume we've re-possessed all of these oligarch's mansions. must be able to get a few ukranians in each of them.
Slicer the £350 is for "ACCOMDATION" only no one has mentioned anything else in the deal . it not for B&B , half board , full board or anything else
The British regime under Johnson have clearly been emboldened by what they and their behaviour manipulators got away with during two years of the "covid" hysteria.
From locking you down in your homes, to preventing you from sitting on a park bench, to stopping you from being with loved ones during their final hours.
They and their psy-op influencers in the media are telling us now we should welcome strangers from a foreign country "with open arms" into homes.

Slicer the £350 is for "ACCOMDATION" only ....A £350 a month “thank you” will be paid by the Government to those who have taken in Ukrainian refugees.
The money is designed to help cover the costs of housing refugees, such as increased food and energy bills, as well as an incentive for people to take part.
The money is linked to each address being used in the sponsorship scheme, rather than the number of individuals taken in. ... as was posted (telegraph) re food & energy

Can Putin not help? He's the cause of this Ukrainian escapade. I think all the assets seized from Russian oligarchs here including the sale of Chelsea must go to funding the resettlement of Ukrainians abroad.
Yet another opportunity for massive fraud as we have witnessed with Furlough, PPE, Welfare benefits, NHS, Etc Etc People in the UK are remarkably naive and stupid, politicians are the worst of the lot.
isnt that statement contradictory tho elise?

the first bit was from carrot above, the remainder was from the telegraph
as in carrot says it's for accom only and the telegraph posts differently
Well there's more interest here than in the Cheltenham Festival. 
we're all just wondering if we can get the 350 in time for the gold cup sparrow
id be happy if theres one with wobblers like colins wife has!!!
Cheltenham is only about a few principal races eg Champion Hurdle/Chase and Gold Cup, the rest much of a muchness with little competition with the Cheltenham flag attached. Boring!
if they can also claim benefits whilst here then you can pop them in the spare room and get the government to decorate your house.
A precedent has been set. Which Baltic state next to be annexed by Russia? Estonia? I think Poland is fairly safe with Mr Tusk fully ensconced in the EU establishment.
I wonder how many will be registering as a charity to get the full whack , now that the latest update just like the Telegraph one states it's £350 per household not per person unless your a charity .
How many undesirables and criminals amongst the approved resettlers? I believe humanitarianism before suitability and qualification.
I hope some form of monitoring in progress post arrival.

Put 'em in B&B's in Blackpool, they'll soon want to go home.
I wonder how long it will take for a "gullible landlady " is headline news for falling for a sob story and losing her life savings after she picked the handsome / beautiful refugee who now happens to just be a con artist
From the government website regarding what the £350 a month covers:
"Just accommodation. There is nothing stopping sponsors offering meals should they wish to.
You will not be expected to cover the costs of food and living expenses (although you may wish to offer this yourself)."
So how are these refugees going to cover food & other living expenses? They won't be able to, so it's going to cost the kind hearted host as I stated in my original post. So sleep easy all you kind, generous, naive do gooders. Rather you than me. Goodnight, sweet dreams & don't have nightmares of getting stabbed during the night by strangers in return for your kindness!

they can claim benefits and child benefits will get nhs and help, clothes free food bank free schools everything and i agree they should its the boat lot i have a problem with
While I feel dreadfully sorry for those cancer suffering children, I'm wondering how those on the NHS waiting list for life saving treatment for their own cancer feel about being shunted back on the list to make way for foreigners who have no right to the treatment having never contributed to the cost of the NHS. Before you condemn me for this post, consider how you'd feel if it was person you loved most in your life was shunted back & lost their life entirely due to the delay!
Slicer - Are there any positives in taking somebody in and changing their lives ?
We make sacrifices to help others - we also have done , we are British - It is in our make up - It is what we do.
Thank God we are not all like you. I would be ashamed.

Wont be taking any Ukranians in but my God, I could afford at least four Ting Tongs all to myself for what the missus costs me.

One the saddest and most selfish rants I have ever read.
I'm all for inviting women and children of Ukrainian descent but the men must be processed just like any other immigrant into the country with no exception (but time) for criminality and possible previous imprisonment.
Hospitality and kindness must not be seen as weakness and be abused even by war-torned Ukrainians.

Yes, definitely. BUT, & it's a big but-this war has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BRITISH PUBLIC. There is a big financial squeeze that we're all going to suffer from. Most people are ill informed of the implications on their own lives. You will change their lives, but one's own life will be changed certainly financially for the worst. If you read my original post on the matter you'll read the problems I foresee which will change the hosts live beyond recognition. It hasn't been thought through. Have a good evening.
100% with you on this Slicer. Its wonderful to be able to help these children with cancer and that should be applauded, but our faltering, negligent, money swallowing NHS world service is riddled with issues including theft, corruption and fraud. People just dont seem to realise it, but just getting correctly diagnosed and treated for serious illness these days has become increasingly difficult, our NHS is way behind other European nations health services in many areas.
Sad- possibly, selfish- definitely but realistic ABSOLUTELY. This is the real world. Anyone who wants to live happily ever after with refugees in their own home should live at the bottom of the garden with the fairies!
Thanks BB & others who support my views. I KNOW I'm right-I'm old enough & ugly enough to know what I'm talking about. Most of you who oppose my views will be here when it hits the fan- very fortunately I won't be. But get a spiritualist to contact me to let me know that you realise I'm right!
Taking somebody in is not compulsory, why do you feel the need to make out that people that do take somebody in are stupid ?
The sense of satisfaction at changing somebody's life in their time of greatest need must be immensely satisfying.

So you're not actually taking in anyone yourself, Johnny?
I haven't made my mind up yet - a big decision. My daughter has registered and I am proud of her for doing so.
I want to understand exactly how the scheme works first.

Have they been tested, jabbed, got covid passports. All forgotten about when it suits the agenda!
You guys don't have an ounce of compassion between the lot of you.
These people have been bombed out of their homes , and you are worried that they might turn on your heating while you out.

Sorry to read that Slicer, but in fairness we have had the best the UK has had to offer, its been all down hill for the past 22 years, and its getting exponentially worse by the day. When any nation decides to take in all the worlds misery from every barbaric society you can think of it is destined to fail miserably, and we have. What we see now is the result of at least two decades of poor political decisions fueled by progressive liberal and ideology.
Im genuinely sorry for the Ukranians and Im glad the cancer suffering kids have arrived in the UK safely, but the UK is in real trouble, we have so many problems that the future looks very bleak for future generations. Charity and kindness should begin at home, and I see very little evidence of that here in the UK. Our hotels and B&Bs are already full to bursting with illegal immigrants and economic migrants from all over the world, its madness.
Was just about to log off BB, but I just want to say I agree with you 100% I've been blessed. I've had the best education, the best music, the best films, true celebrities-none of this reality rubbish, & a good quality of life. During my life there were standards. They started chipping away & now there are none. We live in a degenerate liberal democracy where those who've worked hard all their lives are penalised. Anyway I could go on but I'm tired now. I'm sure we share many views BB so I wish you a good evening & hope that you prosper on here.
Get some rest Slicer, cheltenham tomorrow, for what its worth, you are right in what you have written mate. Watching this once great nation go down the pan so quickly has been a devastating experience for most right headed people. There is no future in the UK, we have all been sold out and sacrificed on the altar of political correctness and mass immigration. Women and children including babies being murdered, abducted, sexually assaulted on a daily basis, suicides through the roof, exponentially in the case of women and girls. Murders, stabbings and shootings on a daily basis, huge welfare and housing benefit costs, a crippled economy, a failing NHS, lowest pensions in the developed Europe, and the old values/morals/unity that made us the greatest nation in the world are becoming virtually extinct. Chin up mate, I also agree about the music, films, and communities back in the day too, it was a different, much more pleasant, unified, safe place and time to live. Best Regards to you old fella.
I hear the U.S/UK/EU are paying $2000 a day for fighters... anyone ??
they'd probably need to know whether they need to take their own keyboards or if they're supplied before they commit to the defence of the realm
Johnny the Guesser is spot on. Remarkable how many people have such a lack of compassion in this country.

Johnny The Guesser14 Mar 22 20:37 " I WILL TELL YOU THE NEGATIVES " , we have done it twice before 1916 & 1939 and all they have done is sh1t on us since then , just like they will do this time when the dust settles. There are 20 plus countries on route to Calais from the Ukraine yet all were hearing about is were not doing enough , why don't the others do something for once.
Yes the country is being dragged down by all the lefty pinko-liberals, when I win the Itv7 this week I am going to emigrate. Somewhere you can still ogle a good-looking woman and you don't have to watch vegetarian blokes kissing in the street, its enough to put you off your mixed grill.
We have had scores of foreign students stay with us over the years. Most for a few weeks some 6 months and one over a year. Absolute pleasure to be around all bar one Russian lad who we couldn't wait to see the back of. 2 Russian girls delightful both named Svetlana. Japanese boy and girl totally charming. The rest mostly teens some adults totally respectful people from all over Europe. We have moved from a 5 bed to a 2 now so unfortunately no room 
Mr Werbie- I assume you were paid more than £350 a month & didn't have to subsidise their food, travel etc out of your own pocket. You also had an idea when they were leaving. Also strict background checks. Totally different situation. I'm sure there will be a lot of do gooding people with no room encouraging others to give up the lives they know for the uncertainty of having strangers in their houses! Please don't take that comment personally as it's not directed at you.
given the wherewithal, i'd take in a Ukrainian refugee in a heartbeat....vast majority of Betfair forumites, i wouldn't touch with a bargepole!
Mr Idaho- it doesn't arise because reading all these posts on the forum leads me to believe that everyone wins & live in magnificent homes & don't need your residence.
Nyet Mr Werbie. Now where is that map of Kyiv & where did I put that red button!
