Not-so-Priti in the UK as Boris and his gang don’t give a pluck about Ukraine’s refugees
UK seems to fear Russians will be coming if we pluck Putin’s victims from hell in Europe
Are us Brits really objecting to Ukrainian refugees heading for the UK as Vlad the Bad bombs their homes and murders their families?
It appears Boris thinks so!
Other countries in Europe are tidying up their racism, lifting barb-wire fences and plucking old folk, young mums and the plain frightened from the ditches, the pot-holed highways and the freezing forests of Central and Eastern Europe.
The European Union moved quickly to say that Ukrainian refugees would be welcome for three years.
In many respects, the Russian invasion of Ukraine represents a major turning point in European politics and racism. And this is patently true for the former Warsaw Pact states.
Poland has taken over 450,000 refugees although it is a much poorer country than the UK.
Even Moldova, one of the poorest countries in Europe, has taken in 79,000 people and actually offered them jobs.
But our big blond bombshell of a prime minister Boris is like somebody twitching the chintzy curtains of East Cheam.
He is trying to discern what his neighbours might think if a whole new raft of immigrants arrives over here ‘taking our jobs, steal our benefits, living it up in posh hotels, getting the NHS for free – and stealing our wives and girlfriends!’
Alright, Boris is saying the UK visa scheme will be broadened.
But is that really enough for a country that voted itself out the EU because we wanted to raise our borders and portcullises to stop our Johnnie Foreigner neighbours moving into our leafy lanes and our Brexit and Covid broken cities?
Home Secretary Priti Patel has said 100,000 Ukrainians will be able to seek refuge in the UK under a “humanitarian route”. She said Moscow extremists could take advantages of any opening of our wet and windy and sea-bashed borders.
Ms Patel did confirm that family members of British nationals would be allowed to come to the UK for up to a year providing they pass security checks,
But she later rejected calls to waive tough visa rules for security reasons because of fears that Moscow’s troops and extremists could try to come to the UK.
Surely, all the proof that both Patel and joker Johnson have got it wrong. The out-pouring of grief for the people of the Ukraine, the millions raised overnight to help out, the indignation of protesters on British streets, the lampoonery of Putin – a good old-fashioned British weapon – the fury and the fear.
This is the truth of the feelings of the people on the streets of Britain right now. We want to help these people Boris!
It has to be accepted that the vast majority of British people want controlled numbers of immigration.
But this doesn’t mean we are opposed to the victims of a madman’s war. Why is it then that it is our Government ministers who are saying no to taking in large numbers of people?
This is a real emergency and our British overlords need to scramble to save lives.
The Ukrainians who have lost anything are not fresh boat loads of young male adventurers from The East trying to beat our asylum system.
Us Brits know the difference Boris – and this war is taking place less than 2000 miles from our proud island.
Our politicians should stand up and cry: “Ukrainian refugees welcome here.”
That’s the way we should be presenting ourselves to the world.

I am a Brit living in Slovakia married to a Slovak. We have two young Ukrainians staying with us. They arrived 2 days ago after traveling for 5 days, 16 hours at the border. The boy is 17 and his sister 20. They are from Sumy close to the Russian border. When they were dropped off at our home I broke down, all they had were little rucksacks like the kids take to school with their books. Parents and three brothers have stayed behind to fight – God bless them. This is the reality of what is happening. We had to take them shopping yesterday morning and they are so grateful. We, as a country, were not prepared to go in and fight, for reasons I understand, but at least we can show more love and humanity to our fellow man. These two youngsters want to go to the US. Problem is young man has only an ID card. The US embassy told me they do not provide any humanitarian aid to citizens of Ukraine yet. They will probably join in late like they did with WW 1 and 11 and then claim all the credit.
We have just taken another 2 20 year old Ukrainian girls to other accommodation we have found. They also need food and clothing. It is still very cold here, especially at night. Our International Church here in Bratislava is doing all it can to help, our resources are finite, but fortunately we trust in a God with infinite resources.
