Yet it is the root cause of many other stories such as high inflation, high fuel prices, high grain and cereal prices, and many other economic issues were all experiencing.
You’re mistaken if you think the “root cause” of inflation is this war.
they have iPhone 6’s but battered and bruised with broken screens that will cost more to fix than but used, but charity is my preferred option.
I have met a couple not hosts who did not appreciate that it would cost them money to host, as least in the short term.
We chose to pay for them to travel to us, which including hotels and flights was about £500.
Obviously food bills went up but once they have access ti the emergency funding they have bought “most” of their own food.
Things that they need have come mainly from donations but we have chosen to out our hand in our own pockets to buy TV’s for their rooms (not a necessity) but does help give them private space.
But in the main, the most costly support we have had to give, is that of time and emotional support.
I can’t tell you the hours we have spent, wasted and spent again to deal with “officialdom”, but most of that is behind us now.
Things get easier everyday and the mother has a job offer already - starting just as soon as we can sort out more “officialdom”.
This was always going to cost us in ££££ and time and emotional investment, but we have no regrets and are finding the whole experience very rewarding.
I am still looking for a couple of iPhones if anyone is feeling charitable

War going on, cost of living going through the roof and the BBC giving publicity to them pair of silly cows.
Thank you for the generous offer - I should have said needs to be unlocked or Vodafone.
Will check our pile. Usual issue is battery life. How about a Nokia 6310?
They're Ukrainian Rod. Not Somalian
Just as well. As the latest consensus coming out of the MoD & Pentagon is that having pushed out from the 2014 front lines. If Russia succeeds in reaching and holding territory from the east bank of the Dnipro River and it's land corridor to the Crimea. It will pause again, as in 2014. Rearm, reorganise and update it's military doctrines. All the while pressuring Ukraine against NATO / EU membership. Then at some future opportune moment. Say, when China threatens and looks like invading Taiwan. Russia will seek to carve off more of the country, or preferably take it all.
I still have one of those - and it works !
It's certainly a catalyst. Yes , I agree we're coming out of the COVID coma and production of gas and oil is way behind demand but this war and the subsequent special economic operations on Russia are only exacerbating the issue. But for the extra cost, it'll be worth it when Ukraine flush out the Russian army.
PM me as I have a spare iPhone 6S freshly reset and now loaded with a Giffgaff SIM - I will post it to you.
That would be awsome - thank you
