Accept any refugees fleeing violence in Ukraine

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Parliament must pass an act to accept any refugees or asylum seekers fleeing Ukraine with a Ukrainian passport. The government, in turn, must give logistical support to help them reach the United Kingdom.
The Ukrainian people are facing violence and repression that seemed unimaginable in modern Europe. To abandon them to war and subjugation is inhuman and would be a betrayal of the core ideals of our nation. We have a moral obligation to offer peaceful sanctuary to victims of the war in Ukraine.
