SCOTTISH host families have condemned the Homes for Ukraine scheme while accusing the UK Government of being “difficult, obstructionist and slow”.

Two host families told The National of the red tape and apparent “lack of urgency” they have had to deal with. They are among a growing number of hosts who have criticised the Homes for Ukraine Scheme and the UK's visa policy for Ukrainians.
