‘The government’s so-called “small boats week” in August saw more deaths in the Channel, the number of people crossing since 2018 topping 100,000 and the Tories’ deputy chair confessing that the government had “failed”. It is another rule of competitive politics that you should try to reduce the attention paid to your failures, not attract more of it.”’
“New testing of water samples on the Bibby Stockholm has confirmed the presence of a potentially deadly strain of legionella onboard, the Guardian has learned.”

I just signed a petition with RAICES demanding that the U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas step in and free an #asylum seeker, Mohammed, who has been in government custody for over 2.5 years.
I need you to add your voice in support of his release and share his story so that we can build enough support for Mohammed’s freedom.

@fkamiah17 #Germany has, for the longest time, called for stricter (ie more inhumane) rules regarding a combined #European #asylum policy.
Regarding this ‘asylum compromise’, however, the German voice was the more benevolent one, that couldn’t get through. Why did they change their mind? They didn’t. The position was about the same, the others changed theirs. 😢
"About 25,000 African #asylum seekers live in #Israel, mainly from #Sudan and #Eritrea, who say they fled conflict or repression.
The country has tried a variety of tactics to force them out, including sending some to a remote prison, holding part of their wages until after they agree to leave Israel, or offering cash payments to those who agree to move to another country, somewhere in #Africa".

Oh my goodness, is there no level to which this government will not stoop to persecute people seeking asylum? This is abhorrent.
The British public generally do not share the xenophobia of this government. Someone please stop them!
“It should be made clear that neither adult or child should be criminalised for arriving in the UK to claim asylum, an offence that clearly contravenes the refugee convention.”
