British comedians send message to Parliament with video in support of Ukrainian Refugees

Earlier today Sandi Toksvig released a video with contributions from Stephen Fry, Miranda, Miriam Margolyes, Clive Anderson, Omid Djalili, Rosie Jones and many more UK comedians.

The message in it is simple, asking that Britain make the necessary changes to its visa system to welcome more Ukrainian Refugees.

Sandi Toksvig:

“Since Russia’s invasion, 22,000 Ukrainians have applied for UK visas, but just over 1,000 have been issued. I am ready to house a Ukrainian family, as are many British people. We want to help, but we need the UK government to take action now, and welcome refugees with open arms”.
