France had announced last week that Britain would set up a pop-up visa centre in the port city after London announced a scheme to allow family members of Ukrainians settled in the UK to enter the country.
Following the announcement, hundreds of Ukrainians travelled to Calais in an attempt to reunite with their families in the UK. The European Union has announced measures to accommodate the refugees for up to three years. British prime minister Boris Johnson last week promised to be “very generous†to refugees seeking safety. There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis! |

This government is just rank incompetent.
The Home Secretary should be able to have this pop-up up and working in a morning. |

Boris talks a great game, one of the best in parliament, but it's naïve to believe he'll do what he says.
levelling up  = bring the whole country to its knees... hey maybe I'm wrong about him never doing what he says he will do. |

By:
A bit rich from the French tbh, they have ushered tens of thousands of illegals away from their beaches towards blighty for two years.
|
|
By:
Any scheme like this is simply going to encourage fake applicants, never even been to Ukraine perhaps.
It's cheaper to fly to the UK than take the train to Calais. |
|
By:
Unfortunately, like Grenfell, there will always be people happy to take advantage of disaster type circumstances, like flies on sh1t.

Perhaps Boris should do a deal? 60,000 ex-Ukrainians for 60,000 dinghy divers...

Says the French who rolled over for the Nazis and helped them kill countless Jews.

By:
It's very telling that refugees leave war torn Ukraine, get all the way to France and still want to get to the UK.

We need to create technology that can move the entire UK and maybe Ireland far away from Europe as possible.

Those countries neighbouring Ukraine seem to be having difficulty coping with a couple of million shared between them, meanwhile…..
EU Settlement Scheme quarterly statistics, June 2021 - GOV.UKhttps://www.gov.uk › government › eu-settlement-sche... 21 Sept 2021 — This indicates that an estimated 5,548,440 people have applied to the scheme with over 4.9 million (4,908,760) obtaining a grant of status. Think we’ve already done our bit, judging from those numbers must be plenty of room for Ukraine refugees in Eastern Europe now. |

Boris knows best.

there is some truth to this there were already 1m+ Ukrainains in Poland before this started |

Unless they have Family here why are they intent on getting to the Uk ?

Of the 1,500,000 refuges from Ukraine,
uk has so far accepted less than 50. |
|
By:
Ireland took around 1400 as of Friday.
Great response by the British people(well most!) themselves, not sure about their politicians though. |

France accuses UK of ‘lack of humanity’ after 150 Ukraine refugees turned away at Calais
They are already in a safe country what's the problem? |

Hearing on @bbc5live how a Ukrainian woman and her 8-year-old daughter slept rough for 4 days and nights in freezing temperatures to cross the Polish border, only to be refused entry to the UK at Calais. Compassion is not complex. |

why didn't she stay in poland?
|

By:
It's about 1500 miles from Ukraine to Calais lol. No surprise they were naval gazing about this nonsense on the bbc.

Chances of that story being fully genuine = 1000/1

Irish govt has scrapped Covid vaccine and other entry requirements to make it easier for the Ukrainian people to get in somewhere safe and welcoming, great move never thought I'd congratulate that mob, but everybody here wants to help as much as we can.
|
|
By:
Not quite such a killer virus then, almost like the restrictions aren't actually necessary.
|
|
By:
well it does make you wonder Cider, I thought similar but always have done on vaccine travel restrictions, didn't quite understand it, sheep following sheep sprang to mind.

2/3 of Ukrainians are unjabbed
KEEP THEM OUT |

By:
80k is the potential amount of refugees is what Ireland are expecting.
I do have sympathy a bit with the UK,i was talking to someone and there aren't places to house a lot of people socially, why aren't the politicians honest with this and trying to score points by talking bollix. Possible the woman in question/150 know someone in UK,that if true should be allowed as they can house them. |
|
By:
being jabbed has no relevance to catching or spreading covid, educate yourself on the subject, and stay away from everybody if you don't want covid.
|
|
By:
"80k is the potential amount of refugees is what Ireland are expecting."
surely we can take twice that number |
|
By:
We're already full of illegals, now there are some genuine refugees. The worst decisions are made in a crisis though, and this seems like another one to me. The whole world can't live in the developed part of europe. If some other country is invaded, do we have to take them all too? As much as you obviously feel for displaced Ukrainians, taking them all in is not a solution.

Loads of space. You could build three Birminghams in the Highlands and nobody would notice.

i thought it was 200,000 we were looking to take, a huge burden but certainly one worth bearing if we can, we can't do anything in military terms but nobody else is anyway
