'Creepy' UK Men Are Advertising Shelter For Only Attractive Ukrainian Refugees

On Twitter, creepy males have been chastised for suggesting they would welcome 'beautiful' migrants escaping Ukraine's civil war into their homes.

Following the UK government's U-turn on an earlier decision to accept Ukrainian refugees and the launch of a website where people can sign up to offer a room to house them, opportunists began sharing photos of several attractive Ukrainian models, claiming they would house them simply because they are attractive.

"UK Gov offering £350 a month to lodge Ukrainians fleeing violence," reads one of the most widely circulated memes.

"I'm doing my part by welcoming Misha and Masha on Monday!" Not all heroes wear capes."

While many are finding the joke funny, others have slammed the opportunistic men who will try to take advantage of women fleeing their homes during this time.

One user tweeted: "Female Ukrainian refugees may feel a lot less anxious about coming to Britain if British men would stop posting Facebook images of young women with the caption ‘I’m doing my bit and taking two of them in hahaha.’

Another added: "Traffickers, exploiters, rapists, opportunists are all at the Polish/Ukraine border. There should have been a major effort made to make refugee women & girls aware of these things from Day 1."

A third said: "So random men are driving in minibuses all the way from the UK to Ukraine, to pick up refugee women & children they’ve never met and who don’t speak English, to drive them back all the way through the EU and to the UK via Channel ports.

"And no-one sees any problem with that?"

The response comes after Housing and Communities Secretary Michael Gove announced the Ukraine refugee housing scheme.

He said: "The courage shown by the Ukrainian people in the face of the devastation caused by the invasion of their great country is nothing short of remarkable.

"The United Kingdom has a long and proud history of helping others in their hour of need and our new Homes for Ukraine scheme offers a lifeline to those who have been forced to flee.

"I'm asking people across our country who can provide a home for Ukrainians to consider being sponsors."
