This #MothersDay we are thinking of all those who won't be receiving a card, or having breakfast in bed, because cruel immigration policies deny them the opportunity to be with their children. No-one should be separated from loved ones due to their immigration status.

Suicide Intervention & prevention has become a primary job for asylum support NGOs & gov continue to obfuscate & hide the problem. This crucial piece reveals the gov aren’t even telling families of the death of loved ones. Comprehensive dehumanisation.

In a motion brought by Baroness Floella Benjamin, yesterday the House of Lords debated the Windrush Compensation Scheme.

It made reference to our Clinic, Southwark Law Centre and the research report (rb.gy/n2rubt) at 12:51:30 & 13:41:30- rb.gy/mggccq. The Dickson Poon School of Law

In 2023 Southwark Council refused planning permission to turn the Beehive PH into residential accommodation (23/AP/0481). The applicants are now appealing that decision.
Helped by Southwark Law Centre & Matthew Meynell see our How-To-Guide to fight the appeal🔽

This is shocking new territory - gas and leccy suppliers cannot evict residents for non payment of energy bills but it looks like local councils are Lambeth Labour Angela Rayner 🌹

🚨 Our clients are challenging the Home Office's decision to charge Bereaved Partners almost £3,000 to apply for indefinite leave to remain.
