Ukrainian refugees who settled into a Scots town have been left upset after Scottish Government officials asked them to consider moving elsewhere in the country to make room for new arrivals.
A group of more than a dozen people fleeing the Russian invasion have been staying in the Mercure Hotel in Livingston after arriving in Scotland under the Super Sponsor Scheme.
Edinburgh Live reports that some of the refugees have already built relationships in the local community and have even been attending West Lothian College to learn English despite only arriving a few weeks ago.
