As 5 million and counting people flee Putin's invasion of Ukraine, the EU opens its doors to Ukrainians. Anyone from Ukraine can enter the EU without a visa. They get immediate residency papers, which includes immediate access to free healthcare, education, and welfare money. They get housing when it becomes available, which is as quickly as possible. There are Polish cities that have more than doubled their population in under a month, so housing is difficult. Ukrainians can apply for a job anywhere in the EU within minutes of crossing the border. I am not exaggerating, usually the employment status is updated in 5 minutes, but sometimes it takes 10 minutes.
If they want to go to Spain, they can buy a train ticket, and just go. It is illegal to refuse to rent an apartment to them, or refuse them a job, just because they are Ukrainian. The Spanish Government will pay them unemployment/welfare payments from the day they arrive, and try to help them find a job.
There has not been this many refugees moving through Europe since right after WWII. This is a huge movement of people. Some have relatives in, or connections to the UK, but are mostly being ignored by the UK. The UK has been slow and bureaucratic, where the EU has been agile.
As always you never furnish any proof, I suspect for a very good reason as well. As for the UK, look how quickly they sent lethal weapons to the Ukraine, the Germans have done fuck all as they are terrified of the Russian response. Now shove that up your rear end, Salty.
