Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

Please follow other countries lead and drop the need for a visa so those wishing to join their families in the UK can find safety here.There are reports of UK citizens not wanting to leave with their Ukrainian partners because they are worried they will be rejected. These people need more than words

Please make it as easy and safe for those refugees who want to come to the UK to have shelter here. Most will return once the country is safe from war. We must not leave this to Ukraine's nearest neighbors if the UN estimates of 4 million refugees are to leave in the coming days and 150,000 have already we must look after these people and not just offer words of support but action..
