TAKE ACTION: The government’s new plan for immigration is cruel, misleading and will destroy lives. Protecting people fleeing war and persecution must come first. Take 1 min to call on the government to scrap this cruel and destructive plan 👉shor.by/8H9C

Human Rights Watch has warned that #migrants living in an area of a camp in #Lesbos contaminated with lead are at serious risk. Children and pregnant women could develop lead poisoning if the government fails to act, they said. #refugeesgr #Lesvos infomigrants.net/en/post/31335/…

This is from a resident of a camp on #Lesvos. 6000+ people live here with limited access to heating, electricity & sanitation. This cannot be the best the Europe has to offer people who have fled war & persecution. Seeking asylum is not a privilege, it is a legal & human right.

The hostile environment deters many migrants from seeking healthcare, including the vaccine. 81% of undocumented migrants we surveyed feared accessing care. Government must scrap the hostile environment to ensure maximum vaccine take-up. nytimes.com/2021/03/30/wor…
