Fantastic to see @socialistworker.bsky.social cover our campaign against racist NHS visa rules - and feature the words of our very own @iioannou.bsky.social! After months of campaigning, many of the Band 3 MFT nursing assistants won a massive victory... 🧵 socialistworker.co.uk/news/manches...

WE DID IT!

📣📣 1/ We’ve got big news: RAMFEL is now Refugee and Migrant Justice. What started as a small advice service in an East London church has grown into 1 of the UK’s largest providers of immigration advice & a leading national voice standing for the rights of migrants, refugees & people seeking asylum.

📢"It’s like you have to choose between settlement and surviving." Essential reading from @ramfel.bsky.social exposing how families are being punished simply for accessing the support they were legally entitled to. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

📣📣📣 1/ Coverage in @theguardian.com of our research on how the govt's so-called 'earned settlement model' will plunge racialised British children into poverty by punishing their parents for receiving basic state support. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Small actions add up. That’s how change happens. #LetsGoENGAGED #openresearch #publicengagement

PEOPLE POWER WORKS ✊

Big news! @bma.org.uk now advising doctors not to engage with Palantir's NHS data platform! They say there must be a "complete break from Palantir technologies in the NHS", due to the company's track record, e.g. with ICE, and the risk to patient trust. www.bmj.com/content/392/...

OUR CAMPAIGN IS WORKING 🪧 We are delighted to announce that some nursing assistants have had salary increases to bring them in line with the new government thresholds. This means their jobs are safe and they can remain in the UK! 🎉 THIS WOULDN’T HAVE HAPPENED WITHOUT YOU. 🧵

A privilege to attend the launch of Hostile Housing last week! 🏠🔒 To maximise their profits, private companies are delivering a system based on containment not care, harming the health of people seeking asylum. Enough is enough. It's time to take a stand.

📢 @andyburnham.bsky.social agrees with us. Why doesn’t MFT? Thanks to everyone who came out on Wednesday to oppose this injustice. But to win, we need even more support. Share this post to raise awareness of the NHS staff facing deportation due to cruel visa rules. 🚨

📣Today we have launched the #EndDestitution campaign📣 migrantdestitution.co.uk/end-destitut... ‼️The government’s latest plans threaten to force yet more people in our communities into destitution. We must stand against this. 1/

🗣️ Say it louder for the people at the back: Let’s make our campaign impossible to ignore. ✊⤵️

📢 TOMORROW! Nursing assistants are at risk of deportation. MFT don’t want to listen. Let’s make our campaign impossible to ignore. ✊

Scrapping Indefinite Leave to Remain or making it harder to get - like the Government has just announced - will devastate our NHS. It punishes people who’ve already been part of our communities for years. Indefinite Leave to Remain is the backbone of belonging. youtube.com/shorts/aHTh0...

We’ll be at Migrant Connections Festival at the end of this month! Alongside amazing music, food, dance and art, our stall will share clear advice on your healthcare rights in the UK and how to access care. Come say hello, pick up resources, and join the celebration! 🎶💃

Scrap the Surcharge! ❌ Borders in our health service take many forms: ▪️ The charging regulations, which see people charged up to 150% of the cost of secondary care ▪️ Identity checks ▪️ Data sharing between the NHS + Home Office And the Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) 🧵

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr Pious Nyandoro, tireless campaigner against the Hostile Environment and the colonial systems of oppression that uphold it. To ensure Dr Pious receives a fitting send-off, please donate via the link below 👇 donate.stripe.com/eVq7sL8LC7aW...

Borders in healthcare are rooted in the border industrial complex – itself rooted in racial capitalism. Abolishing the former rests on abolishing the latter. A sizeable task, for sure – but one that starts with everyday acts of resistance. A GMPNP member explains more 👇

Each one brings one. This is how we grow a movement. How much time do you invest in building relationships and listening to each other? Everyone has a role to play! Head to #SolidarityKnowsNoBorders resources sknb.org/resources/
