A plane is “ready and waiting” to bring Ukrainian orphans over to Scotland for sanctuary, but the Home Office is not clearing the paperwork, Ian Blackford has claimed.
The SNP Westminster leader highlighted the Dnipro Kids appeal, set up by Hibs FC supporters in Edinburgh, which is on stand-by to evacuate 48 orphaned Ukraine children from Poland where they have fled to.
Speaking at Prime Minister’s Questions, Blackford raised the issue in public for the first time after a week of behind-the-scenes appeals.
