What the petition asks
Establish a fast-track visa program for Ukrainians who are employed (whether full-time or under contract) by the British Government or British companies to apply for themselves and their families to come to the UK.
We feel the British economy, in particular the tech industry, has benefited substantially from relatively low-cost, but very high quality, Ukrainian labour over the past two decades.
The many skilled Ukrainians who contribute so much to our economy should receive special treatment in their hour of need.
The British economy stands to benefit enormously from the skilled labour that Britain would attract with this initiative.
