📢 Migrant Workers' Rights – National Emergency Demonstration ⏰ Saturday 13 December, 12PM 📍 Birmingham City Centre Join us in solidarity with ALL migrants, people seeking asylum & refugees. Pass it on. Follow for updates @regulariseuk.bsky.social @jcwi-uk.bsky.social @migrantsrights.bsky.social

Longer settlement routes help no-one. When people can settle sooner, many feel more relaxed & hopeful, supporting needs for connection, belonging & participation. Extending routes limits stability &support. UK must abolish policies that marginalise migrants & undermine our rights

More people are being made undocumented — not by accident, but by design. The system itself creates and traps people in irregularised immigration status. The government knows this — and that it can be fixed with a stroke of a pen.

📢Immigration raids are happening daily — in homes, at work, in public. They tear lives apart, spread fear & push people deeper into the shadows. It's state violence — rising under Labour. The system enables exploitation & even enslavement. #AntiSlaveryDay www.youtube.com/watch?v=7L31...

This past weekend, Regularise spoke at the Green Party Conference 2025 in Bournemouth at a @gpmigration.bsky.social fringe event. A migrant-led panel on the Hostile Environment — exposing state violence in the asylum & immigration system, and what must change. Chaired by @carladenyer.bsky.social

Pleased to announce that @regulariseuk.bsky.social will now be joining us as a speaker at our Hostile Environment fringe event tomorrow 💚

Yesterday at #GPConf hostile environment fringe with @carladenyer.bsky.social @regulariseuk.bsky.social, @migrantvoice.bsky.social and @praxisprojects.bsky.social - challenge migration narratives, educate policy makers about migrant experience and urgent worries re skilled worker visa changes.

Saying you’re “building a Britain for all” while pushing anti-migrant (i.e. racist) policies is dehumanising. Starmer’s government isn’t tackling racism—it’s entrenching it. If he's serious he’d: ⚡End the hostile environment & scapegoating ⚡Grant the right to stay & make settlement easier for ALL

“Digital IDs don’t break that status quo – they reinforce it. They codify exclusion, expand state control, and punish those without the right paperwork... It is the hostile environment expanded to everyone.” Our founder in today’s Big Issue. Read & share⬇️

Digital IDs aren’t a “solution” — they’re a weapon for control. They’ll deepen exclusion, legitimise prejudice, enable exploitation & embolden hostility. Regularise calls on gov to abandon this plan and adopt a pragmatic approach ➡️ REGULARISATION regularise.org/blog/press-r...

110,000 far-right & anti-migrant voices flooded London. We were outnumbered 20:1 — kettled for hours — but we showed up. Statements don’t outnumber fascists. Bodies on the streets do. Next time — and there will be a next time — show up. Read our founders words⬇️ regularise.org/blog/far-rig...

🚨 The Home Office has launched a mass text + email campaign targeting international students + families: From “Go Home” vans in 2013 → straight to your pocket in 2025. The racist hostile environment hasn’t ended — it’s been upgraded.

'Britain has introduced a series of hostile immigration policies, sparking outrage among migrant-led groups. Among them is Regularise, who warn these reforms, disguised as efforts to combat exploitation, send a clear message that the system values migrant labor, but not migrant lives.'

"I feel that when the British government were planning the Immigration Act 1971, they made the decision that they were going to get black people out of the United Kingdom...That is the root of the scandal."

'Migration isn’t a problem to fix – it’s a reality to embrace and support. Involve, protect, and invest in all workers – including those who come to the UK seeking better lives – because dignity depends not on a passport, but on our shared humanity' More of our founder's words in today's press⬇️

🌍 For more than 99% of human history, people moved freely. Now? Borders, barbed wire & bureaucracy stop people from doing so. Our new animation traces how colonialism created the global border regime—& who profits from it today. 📽️ Watch now & share: youtu.be/gotB7Ethvrs?...

Migrant communities were left confused, scared and worried after the government's Immigration White Paper announcements. We are joining this call to meet with Home Secretary @YvetteCooperMP & Migration Minister @SeemaMalhotra1 to discuss our concerns.

Alongside 20+ trade unions, migrant-led groups, worker rights & support organisations, we have written to the Home Secretary @yvettecooper-mp.bsky.social & Immigration Minister ‪@seemamalhotra-mp.bsky.social‬. See summary slides & the full letter at the link below: regularise.org/blog/migrant...

1/ Italy’s recent referendum to fast-track citizenship for migrants failed due to a low turnout — just 30% voted, below the 50% quorum. While Italy faced a boycott, the UK is planning to make it even harder for most migrants to settle and gain citizenship.

While Spain acknowledges the shortcomings of their immigration system & advances the rights of undocumented migrants, UK retreats—choosing to violate human rights rather than uphold them. @saizelma.bsky.social N.B. @yvettecooper-mp.bsky.social @seemamalhotra-mp.bsky.social @angelaeagle1.bsky.social

It will @nesrinemalik.bsky.social . The 10-year route ALREADY causes untold pain. Undocumented people who manage to regularise after 20 years are forced onto it, spending 30+ years in limbo. It's used as punishment. Now Labour wants to expand that cruelty to more people.

Misplaced Priorities: The real crisis in this country isn’t immigration – it’s inequality. While political leaders point fingers at migrants, the wealthiest 10% of households hold 41% of all wealth, while the poorest 50% own just 9%. Read more here ⬇️ regularise.org/blog/labour-...

We need more councils, local authorities, boroughs, and communities standing up against the government's harmful anti-migrant rhetoric, exclusionary policies, and escalating State violence. Let's build true solidarity, defend the rights of all migrants, and protect every member of our communities.

✍️ Urgent: Sign and share the petition to stop Fatou's imminent removal from the UK 'Fatou Tamba is due to be removed from the UK on 21st April 2025 after living in the UK 18 years.' The UK is her home, Fatou must stay! Read more and sign here: www.change.org/p/stop-the-d...

"We need to face a simple truth: migration is a fact of life – not a problem. People are undocumented because governments make them that way. They can unmake it, too." Really important article from @regulariseuk.bsky.social⬇️ www.bigissue.com/opinion/star...

Our founder writes: 'Starmer says his approach is sleeves-rolled-up, serious, and practical. But what’s practical about putting barriers in front of a woman delivering your dinner? What’s moral about punishing the very people holding our society together? We don’t need more hostility.' Read more:

We're proud to sign this open letter to the UK Government by our friends at @regulariseuk.bsky.social #RightsNotRaids

Undocumented people build our cities, care for our families & do the work this country relies on. But instead of recognising their humanity, this government is escalating hostility, raids & removals. 🖊️ Sign the open letter, demand justice & call for #RightsNotRaids: regularise.org/rights-not-r...

📰 In the same week Philip Hammond admits the UK needs migrant workers to deliver growth via a construction boom, the govt is raiding, detaining and forcibly removing construction workers in Belfast! Make it make sense. You can’t build a thriving future on hostility & exclusion!

Denied the right to work. No access to housing. No safety net. No bank account. Exploited. Isolated. Afraid. Years — often decades — in limbo. This story is one of many. 📢 We must listen. We must demand change. No one ought to suffer like this for simply seeking a better life. #NoHumanIsIllegal

It’s time to take action against Islamophobia. Our @seemasyeda.bsky.social was on @bbcone.bsky.social Sunday Morning Live to talk about why the government must urgently recognise and tackle this rapidly rising type of racism. Catch the full interview on Iplayer www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

🚨 Undocumented Women Left Out of the Conversation 🚨 On #IWD2025♀️, what about the 100s of thousands of undocumented women in the UK? Denied safety, work & justice; facing exploitation, abuse, detention & forced removal under the UK govt’s hostile, xeno-racist border policies.

🚨 Undocumented workers are the backbone of Britain’s economy—yet the Employment Rights Bill ignores them. Unions & Regularise founder tell @mstaronline.bsky.social why ALL workers must be protected from exploitation & have their rights upheld & respected.

Across Italy yesterday, hundreds mobilised in 15 cities demanding regularisation and residence permits for all migrant workers, as well as improved conditions for obtaining citizenship documentation, access to bank accounts, health cards, and residency.

Watch the great new explainer video from @regulariseuk.bsky.social on why we need to get rid of NRPF. Take action: Write to your MP - here's a template: docs.google.com/document/d/1... Sign the Regularise petition to Parliament: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70... youtu.be/yZ9AHl95O50?...

🚜 While UK farm owners protest subsidies & taxes, farm workers are fighting for better pay & conditions Regularise was proud to stand with Justice Is Not Seasonal at the Home Office, demanding an end to exploitation on British farms #JusticeIsNotSeasonal

📢 The Great Benefits Myth EXPOSED! 📢 Many migrants are barred from claiming benefits, yet they’re blamed for taking them. Meanwhile, the rich get richer & inequality grows. 🚨 Watch now to see how the UK government fuels these lies to divide us! youtu.be/yZ9AHl95O50?...

"The initial costs to regularise my status are close to £4,000, and that's just the start of a lengthy and expensive process that will last at least another 10 years. Undocumented migrants like me aren’t even allowed to work, making these fees impossible." - Anon. undocumented in the UK

🚨The Home Office charges extortionate immigration fees of nearly £4,000, forcing over 80,000 people to apply for fee waivers—yet their finances are intrusively scrutinised, and hundreds of thousands of Britons' data is collected in a terrible act of mass surveillance.

History has shown that when we stay silent, injustice spreads and becomes the norm. Who will speak if you don’t?

“Far from being a drain on this country, migrants from all over the world enrich our society in every sense. Anti-migrant politics won't build a single house, staff a single hospital or raise anyone’s wages. Instead, by echoing its rhetoric, the government is simply fuelling the rise of Reform UK."

🚨 The UK government is making it harder for some refugees to obtain citizenship—punishing those with no choice but to travel "irregularly." Instead of exclusion, we need policies that promote social cohesion. Citizenship strengthens communities & benefits all of society.

'There are no pure cultures: All of our religions, stories, languages and norms were muddled and mixed through mobility & exchange throughout history.' 'We have always been global, and this is our shared identity. It is our unique way of being and remaining in the world as one family.'

Samuel Jarrett-Coker came to the UK in 1976 at 13 & has lived here nearly 50 years. Despite repeated attempts to regularise his status, Home Office never responded. Now, he faces being removed from UK. “I’ve lost about three stone...I can’t eat or sleep."

Undocumented migrants are woven into the fabric of our society. The UK should be welcoming them. Sign @regulariseuk.bsky.social 's petition asking the government to shorten the cruel 20-year residency period keeping undocumented people in precarity. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...
