I just had a chat with one of my sisters in Gaza(with difficulty), who is a pharmacist. She has worked in the medical field for 20 years. Gaza is on the verge of one of the most significant health catastrophes in modern history. About 1.5 million people are living in tents, with

During such a worrying time for so many of our asylum-seeking community members, we love welcoming people to our peaceful community garden for them to relax in. At this time of year we have lots of bright colours and sweet scents to calm the mind and enjoy with friends here.

Absolutely. There must be justice for those pointlessly detained for Rwanda and for communities like ours up and down the country who have been holding the terror of those threatened with being sent there with letters and phonecalls. Disgusting treatment of vulnerable people.

Very young children are spending years living in tiny asylum hotel rooms. Our asylum-seeking mums, and Deputy Director Leyla Williams, spoke to BBC News today about the impact on children. Home Office subcontractor Clearsprings makes millions in profits & should house people properly.

So much work ahead for those of us supporting migrants' rights, especially with a serious lack of legal aid lawyers. Potential victims of modern slavery need care, time, and safe physical places to get advice. What to do if you see an immigration raid: righttoremain.org.uk/immigration-ra…

This result was about many things. But the uncommitted movement, the grassroots and student activists, the people of Michigan, Illinois, and Minnesota who are standing in solidarity with those in Gaza, those were key. 🔥

Need urgent help here. Trhas is invited to join Refugee Team at World Championships in Sept. To do that she needs her asylum interview, a positive decision and a travel document. It’s tight but do-able. Yvette Cooper please make a girls dream come true. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/urge…

It can't be overstated how hard it is for asylum seekers to find legal aid representation - which is their right. Even with our six years building relationships with law firms, even we can't find lawyers for all our vulnerable community members. This is a *massive* problem. 1/

It's profoundly depressing to witness a renewed focus on deportations and raids by the new government, when another approach is completely possible: one that recognises migration is a fact of life. Stop criminalising those who move and lead with humanity. theguardian.com/uk-news/articl…

Such an important point by Alasdair Mackenzie 🧡 here. If the summit involves Cabinet plus law enforcement officials, the prism through which solutions are sought is from the outset excluding many with critical expertise and experience. It’s a skewed approach, and disappointing.
