Drop all visa requirements for refugees fleeing Ukraine

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

There is a war raging in Europe and we cannot balk from our moral duty to supply visa-free safe passage to all refugees fleeing Ukraine.

There are thousands of people in the U.K. willing to help these desperate people with accommodation.

Drop visa requirements for refugees from Ukraine
It is our moral duty as allies of Ukraine and members of the human race to support desperate people fleeing desperate situations.

The vast majority of refugees will want to return to Ukraine when Putin has been vanquished. There is no reason why we shouldn’t be offering visa-free safe passage.

The good people of this country demand that you act as a humanitarian government - not as a rogue state where words are worthless.
