 but to answer - they'll go back home once the dust settles - and they're OK with that -

The dust might never settle. Regardless, why is it up to us to help them when there are multiple countries on the way to Britain from Ukraine who are ready and willing to take them in? 
 

You believe that legitimate refugees should stop in the first country that’s safe, why are Ukrainians different? What could it be…

Really now,  no more comments from me despite how hard you might wind my clock.

2 minutes you lasted that time. Your self control is as great as your political acumen.

You're right of course - I just can't help myself, even to the extent of revealing some personal stuff  which I promised myself I wouldn't do, especially as I thought that Brains was a dipstick because he had to tell us how clever and qualified he was, which normally means the guy is thicker than p-s.  This is definitely the last of my comments - you guys have ground me down for the 'win'. Enjoy your week.

Well, whoever he was, you haven't really provided any material to analyse, except name-calling and personal attacks

A clue for you,,,,

Try me. I've studied a lot of partial differential equations and specialised in nonlinear numerical methods, so I think I can handle a bit of complexity*. If you can just kindly provide an explanation from your shining intellect I'll try to translate it for the laypeople here.

(*not as credentialled as the professor here, only a master's degree but I do like technical stuff)

Revealing that you get your opinions fed to you by the Daily Mail (hint, they support the Rwanda plan and also support accepting Ukrainian refugees) isn’t exactly ‘revealing personal stuff’. 
 

I mean, we could all figure that out anyway.

13 minutes! At least you’re improving. Make it an hour and you get a cookie.

That was in response to you telling jakee:

you clearly wouldn't understand the explanation.

So you effectively told us first how clever you were. Does that mean, according to you, that you're thicker than p-s?

Don't be so hard on yourself.

Translation: "I'm not racist, I have a black friend" 

Wait, I volunteered to translate the highly technical reasons why homelessness in the UK was directly caused by taking in asylum seekers, not thinly veiled dog whistles.

UK conservative. OK to flee from German or Russian oppression. European Jews and blue eyed Ukrainians ok.  Because the mix of local color wont be challenged.

Others fleeing war, drought

Wear funny clothes. They should die besides their cattle and sheep.

Interesting twist in the tale. Article 16 of the agreement between the UK and Rwanda obligates the UK to take an equivalent number of vulnerable Rwandan refugees back to the UK in exchange for the deportees. No decrease in the number of refugees entering the UK, just a refugee exchange program that's going to cost UK taxpayers millions of pounds.
