Really worrying.
The only consolation for me is that 'boorish Britain' would retaliate in kind from nuclear subs.
We can only hope that Russia realise this.
The biggest worry is that Putin looks mad.

'People here need it!' Eamonn Holmes demands foreign aid budget be slashed to help Britons:
 
Another step closer to dictatorship with the bills passed last night. Take me back to the good old days of 2016 !!! This country is going to the dogs but i suppose this is what people voted for and must have wanted. You reap what you sow.

Maybe you can explain why you think that. Ukrainian refugees offer no threat to the people of this country, and it's highly unlikely that second generation would either, in the unlikely event they stay here and don't return to their own country.

Compare with the large number of British men, women and children who have been murdered here by second generation Islamics. This is fact. Such is the maelstrom that is the Middle East, we can expect these domestic attacks to continue for as long as the UK contributes to the fight against terrorists in the Middle East.

So for me, there are some countries like Libya and Pakistan from which we need to keep immigration to a minimum and instead help the Ukraine's and, who knows, the Moldovas of this world.

Sorry that this reply is a bit late (the thread has moved on in the meantime) but you cannot differentiate between refugees on account of their nationality, into desirable and non desirable, because a 'person in need' is a 'person in need' full stop. I'm sure that the average British male would, by choice, want female refugees from Sweden - all single and aged between 20 and 30 <laugh> but it doesn't work that way. In the town where I live (population 20,000) we have taken in around 400 refugees from Syria Iraq and Afghanistan (with a few other nationalities like Somalia making up the numbers) - almost all male, and all young. To be honest this would be a problem wherever they came from - imagine 400 bored, penniless young male Scousers appearing on your doorstep !! So it's not their nationality which is the problem. The other point is that you cannot really differentiate between economic refugees, political refugees and environmental refugees any longer. If a person's native country has become unlivable in it's likely to be a combination of all three.
