LETTERS – Response has been a disgrace

The response to the plight of Ukrainian refugees by this government has been an absolute disgrace.
Passed from pillar to post and often country to country in search of the necessary paperwork, forced to fill in a fifty page visa document for ‘security reasons’.

What security checks were carried out on the 28,000 who crossed the channel last year with no documents?

I’m guessing it’s a figure between nil and zero.

Thankfully the British public have risen magnificently to the challenge in spite of not because of the government.
