Ali Maskon who arrived from Syria via Lebanon on Isle of Bute as a child in 2015 speaks powerfully how Bute provided him with a place of sanctuary. He met his old teachers too. A brilliant end to our book tour before the summer break. See Childmigrantstories.com

Asylum seekers are not criminals. We need safe and legal routes, allow asylum seekers to work, restore legal aid, and end indefinite detention. The Green Party will push for better integration and provide essential social support to help them heal from the trauma of fleeing war

Congratulations to my Bangladeshi nephew on his graduation from Middlesex University today. He came to the UK on a student visa, worked his socks off studying and supporting himself financially. Is this the type of Bangladeshi that Keir Starmer was to deport to Bangladesh?

Next up at #histchild2024 is our 'Childhood and Mobility' panel. eithne nightingale kicks us off by talking about her brilliant book Child Migrant Voices, published earlier this year Bloomsbury Books UK, focusing on Britain since the 1930s bloomsbury.com/uk/child-migra…

Just 4% of Keir Starmer's Cabinet went to private school compared to 63% in Rishi Sunak's government. 93% were educated at a comprehensive school. A massive change from all previous UK governments

Awful rioting by racist right-wing thugs shames the UK & shows racism is still hardwired into our society. Solidarity with Muslim friends facing Islamophobia & others experiencing racist violence. Most people I know are migrants/children of migrants; it’s GB’s greatest strength

It is clear that Elon Musk needs to stay out of British politics. RT if you agree.

Can someone please get The Marsh Family MarshFamilySongs to the DNC, ASAP!
