Ukraine

Proceeding contribution from Priti Patel (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 March 2022. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Ukraine.

I thank the hon. Gentleman for his kind words and comments. He is absolutely right that we will hear many more cases of elderly relatives and grandparents—that is a fact—which is why we have created the family route. I have also been clear that we will give those who come here access to public benefits and the chance to work. We have an established diaspora community in the United Kingdom that works in key industries and key locations, and we will build on that. The Government, and not just the Home Office, have had many offers from employers who absolutely want to help.
