What proportion of the coverage of small boats crossings that you see in UK media includes the perspective of an asylum seeker who has attempted the crossing?
Love, strength & solidarity with Women, Queers & migrants in the US 💔
"Activist lawyers are making money out of the asylum system!" What a joke. This guy's wealth literally elevated him to @thetimes rich list. People fleeing war or persecution, seeking safety here are being routinely victimised... for financial gain! Fight the #AntiRefugeeLaws
Our very own West Midlands campaigns manager Emma features in this @itvnews piece that highlights the day-to-day brutality of our asylum system. You can sign the amazing Virginia's petition here: change.org/p/we-are-virgi…
All Virginia wants is live in peace and take care of her children, as we all do, but she is prevented by our cruel asylum system. Sign her petition below!👇 change.org/p/we-are-virgi…
Have you joined the Lift The Ban coalition yet? You can join here: lifttheban.co.uk People seeking asylum are banned from working, surviving on £1.27 a day, in barracks & hotels - we could just let people work & take care of themselves. Tell government it’s time to change
This is what it looks like when a coalition of over 300 organisations campaigning to #LiftTheBan get together! We're fighting to overturn the ban on working for people seeking asylum. And big plans are brewing... @AsylumMatters

"Why can't they stay in France?" Do you hear this a lot too? Next time you do, send them this video so they know there’s a better question to ask.
A difficult journey from a faraway land, forced to flee his home and navigating a sometimes hostile environment.... sound familiar? As Cardiff embraces Paddington's visit, let's remember to extend our compassion & warm Welsh welcome to all. 🐻
🚨 A baby has died and 65 people have been rescued in the Channel. These tragic deaths are preventable. We need safe routes NOW. Our thoughts are with the baby’s loved ones, and all who were on the boat. bbc.com/news/articles/…
"I fled from prison in my home country, only to find myself in dehumanising & degrading prison-like conditions here in the UK... I felt depressed & criminalised". Read about the harm 'quasi-detention' causes & why people seeking asylum should be housed in #CommunitiesNotCamps 👇
Since 2020, the UK government has used former military barracks and a barge to house #asylum seekers. “Quasi-detention” sites are harmful to health and must be replaced with safe and stable accommodation, @FreefromTorture @MdM_Greece @DOTW_UK bmj.com/content/386/bm…
Several PEOPLE including child die in Channel. Another fatal crush for a boat. This is a direct result of funding border enforcement measures. Crossings are more dangerous than ever. bbc.com/news/articles/…
At least 12 lives taken at our border today. 12 people who needed our help & were killed trying to ask for it. Our thoughts & love are with their families & loved ones, the survivors & with all those left without safe access. People need safe routes to seek asylum.
📭 Today @AsylumMatters has written again to the @10DowningStreet urging the Prime Minister to take urgent and practical steps to fix our broken asylum system and protect, rather than punish those seeking safety... 🧵 asylummatters.org/2024/08/22/fol…
NEW PETITION: End racist rhetoric. End racist riots. Racist violence is carried out by a tiny minority, but we all see the racist rhetoric that provokes it. Enough. Add your name to say racist rhetoric must end in parliament, in the media and online. act.refugee-action.org.uk/page/154730/pe…
Maria, a refugee woman from our network, shares: “Watching the news and seeing all the people together, it is the best I’ve felt all week. It gave me so much hope. These people welcome me. Wow!” 2/2
Up and down the country, thousands of people came out in their communities to join anti-racist gatherings. This is who we are. Compassion, community, care ❤️👏 1/2
With our friends @Praxis_Projects and @RefugeeAction we've developed an emergency briefing for People Seeking Asylum & Refugees on staying safe hosted via @hopenothate Available here in English, translated copies are coming hopenothate.org.uk/wp-content/upl…
🚨 GUIDE: Staying Safe Amidst Far Right Violence 🚨 We've worked with several partners to develop this guide aimed at frontline organisations supporting people in the asylum and immigration system in the context of the current far-right violence. Access via @hopenothate ⬇️
🚨 STAYING SAFE: NEW GUIDE 🚨 Several organisations worked together to produce this guide, "Staying Safe Amidst Far Right Violence" Please circulate widely. hopenothate.org.uk/communities/co…
Government must commit to closing all large scale asylum sites which continues to act as a focal point for Far Right aggression & violence. We would like to express our sincere thanks to everyone working to protect & support people in hotels.
