The Bunker – News without the nonsense

We Must Do More – Start Your Week with Alex Andreou and Yasmeen Serhan

Listen Later

Harrowing scenes of families fleeing Ukraine have seen the Government pressured to do more for them. Will it? As Russia’s bombardment persists, it emerged the UK had only issued 50 visas to refugees escaping the invasion. Home Secretary Priti Patel has faced pointed criticism – are there any excuses? Will new proposals be enough? Alex Andreou is joined by Yasmeen Serhan to look at the week ahead. 


  • “Kyiv is still standing, it’s still Ukrainian, but it’s an incredibly dire situation.” – Yasmeen Serhan 
  • “People don’t want to leave their homes, people want to go home… but they also want to be safe, they also want to live.” – Yasmeen Serhan 
  • "The resolve of the Ukrainian people and government has been incredible to witness." – Yasmeen Serhan 
  • "The government is underestimating the extent to which Brits would be willing to help." – Yasmeen Serhan
