Important and damning report on the government’s failed Operation Warm Welcome ⬇️ The UK gov promised Afghans help to resettle and rebuild their lives. Broken promises. By the end of August, thousands of Afghan families face further homelessness and trauma as they leave hotels

📢 Yesterday evening, we came together as action groups across England, in solidarity to discuss how we feel about the government's announcement to raise visa fees significantly aswell as the immigration health surcharge. This proposal would drive families into further poverty⬇️
