I am so pleased to see this new paper just published by my colleague Natasa Mavronicola. It is an absolutely fantastic paper; challenging, clear, persuasive, and impeccably executed. Required reading for human rights lawyers everywhere IMO academic.oup.com/ojls/advance-a…

And I assume Chris Philp MP voted against the Lords amendment that would have provided for group exceptions to removal to Rwanda, eg for Congolese people at risk of hostility. But perhaps he didn’t think, or understand, or care

If Croydon South needs another reason to vote for Ben Taylor The Labour Party, I’m sure Ben knows that Congo & Rwanda are different countries. More seriously, Chris Philp MP does not understand what he’s voted for, with people’s lives in the balance. Utterly shameful

This election will be extremely close.

The Tories have changed the voting system & you only have one vote for Mayor.

If you usually vote Green or Lib Dem - please lend me your vote to make free school meals permanent, freeze TfL fares & get more council homes built. #BBCLondon

✊🏽We are standing together against the cruel Rwanda Act.
