1) escaped a war zone
2) made it across europe
3) made it across the channel
Has more right to be here than most of the ***** that claim birth right
No because birth right is how it works. Secondly the immediate need of a refugee is safe haven which is what is being offered by most of the countries closest. Thirdly, it is better for them to be in countries closest to Ukraine because we don't know how long this is going to be for and it maybe possible for them to return and help rebuild their society.
