This is scandalous.

At JCWI, we're sadly hearing similar stories on our helpline w/ UNISON - UK's largest union - care workers being made undocumented + destitute due to care providers' sponsorship licence being revoked, then unable to find sponsorship elsewhere.

We need change now.

Last night, the Lords called out the government's ban on migrant care worker family members as ‘terrible’.

“We are asking care workers to care for our loved ones, but we are denying them the right to do the same in respect of their own children and partners.” - Lord Jonny Oates

'Asylum seekers are our neighbours, not political pawns for failing politicians. If MPs cannot resist the Rwanda plan, activists will.'

Thank you to Owen Jones for talking to Right to Remain.

Solidarity to everyone resisting detention & deportation.

It’s vital that the introduces a firewall between statutory services and immigration enforcement so abusers can no longer use insecure immigration status as a means of control.

This is a great step forward, and we stand with Latin American Women's Rights Service - LAWRS calling MPs to follow suit.

All Londoners should be able to enjoy decent pay & fair conditions. But for far too many workers this isn't the case.

A huge step forwards in the lords today thanks to Latin American Women's Rights Service - LAWRS firewall campaign.

For too long migrant survivors have been locked out of justice.

It’s time to stop police & other services sharing their data with immigration enforcement & put safety before status once and for all.
