Quote: wrencat1873 "Sanctions should be applied by the stronger more powerful nations and given the amount of Russian cash swilling around London, the UK should be higher on the list.
Mind you, as you rightly point out, "The EU" as a collective are always going to be higher up the list.
The UK's efforts over taking in displaced Ukrainians is absolutely disgraceful and they appear to be being treated only marginally better than those coming over in small boats.
They took great pleasure in suggesting that refugees could now apply for a visa on line. It's a long way from the proper welcome that these people are receiving elsewhere.'"
Not quite sure about this, but I would have thought that the Russian cash swilling around London would belong to the Russians, and where as I'm as sure as I can be that some will be going to places it should not be, I doubt these oligarchs have got what they have by giving it away as substantially as you are implying.
With regards to the way the Ukrainian refugees have been treated I can understand to a point the need for the UK to be careful in their screening of these people regarding security, having said that the government are quick to point out they've done this that and tuther, and we were the first to introduce this and that yet shamefully can't get they're finger out and join the rest of the other countries when it comes to the humanitarian side of things, utterly disgraceful.
