Together with Show Racism the Red Card and IMIX 🧡, our #MigrationMakingBritainGreat project is showing the the same power and inspiration which diversity and immigration bring to sport, is the same as it can bring to all our lives, as boxing champion @bilalfawaz_ shows here👇

Well done Migrant Voice 🧡, big fan of this 👏🏽

'Some of the ways to greet a Glaswegian'

As our pals from Refuweegee 🧡 rightly say; 'we're all fae somewhere'

And this from Migrant Voice 🧡 shows it perfectly, and we're all the better for it.

Greet a Glaswegian today.

We have seen this happen. There is no excuse for treating people like this. Those seeking asylum need to be provided with safety and security. Instead they are being put in even more precarious positions.

Increases which come into force today will mean that people are unable to afford to be with their loved ones. It makes love effectively 'pay to play'. They will destroy people's lives and make basic rights conditional on how much they earn. They must be reversed. #ActionOnVisas

The quickest explanation of minimum income requirements, which increase today, is that they are a way to make falling in love 'pay to play'. They are a charge which sees families ripped apart and children denied a parent. #ActionOnVisas

Tomorrow Minimum Income Requirements for migrants increase. While businesses may struggle, it is families who will suffer the most. Telling people they can't be with loved ones if they don't earn enough should never be allowed. Love isn't 'pay to play'.

Paying other countries to take those seeking safety, rather than properly investing in the UK's asylum system is always going to leave vulnerable people at more risk. To do so with a country which has such severe human rights issues is unconscionable.

🚨Tomorrow European Parliament will vote on a 'New Pact on Migration', following previous deals which have seen those seeking safety trapped and forced to make ever more dangerous journeys. Together with 160 other organisations we call on MEPs to #StopThePact

So many people are struggling right now with the cost-of-living crisis. Poverty levels, including among children, are rising. Prices are going up constantly. On top of all of that migrants face tens of thousands of pounds in costs, just to live and work here. #ActionOnVisas

Happy #InternationalRomaDay to everyone!

We recently contributed to the ICIBI report into treatment of care workers. Rather than one which bans migrants being with loved ones, we need a system which prevents them being exploited, and allows the freedom to leave unscrupulous employers
