From a couple of years ago but still of great interest.

And some one replied saying it was due to the terrorist risk of potentially giving asylum to Hamas terrorists. How are you reaching for the race card when 70% of the refugees we accepted into the UK between 2010 and 2021 were from Syria. Also were looking to resettle 20000 Afghan refugees in the coming years.

It's absolutely absurd to pull the race card.

Most refugees are black or brown, you've got to be completely ignorant to think otherwise.

There have been a lot of refugees from Ukraine but they are going back to Ukraine when the Russians have been dry humped.

A case of out of the fire and into the frying pan…

Deep fat frier, surely.

Can you provide examples of this occuring recently?

It’s been happening in the West Bank over the past 2 weeks with at least 75 murdered some of which are children:

Three Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in West Bank - WAFA news agency

Three Palestinians, including two teenagers, were killed by Israeli forces in separate incidents in the occupied West Bank early on Thursday, Palestinian official news agency WAFA said.

www.reuters.com

In the 2018 Gaza border protests over 150 Palestinians were killed in the demonstrations. At least 10,000 others injured, including 1,849 children, 424 women, 115 paramedics and 115 journalists. Of those injured, 5,814 were hit by live ammunition.

This is just a small example of what the Palestinians have endured. Is that enough for you or you want more?

One of the biggest genocides in human history is about to take place in few hours against a thirsty, hungry, injured, hopeless population made up mostly of children and women.

I'm guessing the reason we (England) aren't accepting refugees from Palestine is due to the terrorist risk which I previously mentioned. I don't know why Scotland, that their prerogative.

We took on a lot of Ukrainians through the homes for Ukraine scheme, seeing as there is a lot of support for Palestinians in the UK I'm sure a lot of people will be willing to board refugees in their homes.

In truth I wish it were that simple. Ukrainians are mostly Christian.In fact would be intrigued to know how many UK Muslim families took on board Ukrainians.Bringing in a Muslim family may not be that easy, for the simple reason that you have no idea if you are bringing in a a victim or Hamas terrorist. Not sure many would take that risk.

There won’t be any refugees from Gaza, they can’t get out of the place, Palestinians with dual nationality cannot get out
