He isn't "losing" this money. This is called "paying tax like a responsible citizen and not hiding your money offshore" and we need to start recognising and applauding it.

It takes a village! As of tonight, our caseworkers and wider team at West London Welcome have pulled out all the stops and ensured that the twelve of our refugee community members who were facing homelessness in the run-up to xmas are now safely housed.

Yet what do we get? Temporary refugee status. Family reunion decimated. Asylum support withdrawn. Where’s the accountability? The self-awareness? The reparations?

Absolutely - the Asylum Seeker Memorial Project has done fantastic, heart-breaking work making recording many deaths in the asylum system. But it's appalling that this vital work has been left to journalists and campaigners for so long - it's the Government's duty to track these tragedies.

The Government, as well as leaders of other far-right European governments, sees migrants as less deserving of human rights. This is racism pure and simple. Read the blog and subscribe to our Substack to read our weekly round-up of the latest immigration news: buff.ly/NkwgRSN

All six insights come from this powerful new blog by Julia Hanne — on why integrating nutrition into UHC is essential, especially as global nutrition financing collapses. Read the full piece ⬇️ actionforglobalhealth.org.uk/nutrition-cr...

Let us be clear: we won't stop resisting.

On #HumanRightsDay, our human rights lawyer Prime Minister is busy eroding human rights 👇 www.thenational.scot/news/2568613...

Starmer wants to change the ECHR to to defeat "the forces of hate and division". Yet really, he is bowing to the forces of hate and division. The only people who dislike the ECHR are people with contempt for refugees.

This Government cuts aid to people facing catastrophe, yet won’t make billionaires pay their fair share. Make it make sense. It’s time for #RepairNotRetreat 👇

Colonial powers destabilise swathes of the world, then turn their backs on those uprooted. This is the outcome 👇

They ban people seeking sanctuary from working. And then say this.

But doesn't welcome people forced to flee conflict. Hence making them wait 20 years before even having a chance of settlement.

‼️ The 16 countries worst hit by food crises spend nearly twice as much on debt as on health. This sickening statistic lays bare the injustice at the heart of the system. That's why we're calling for #RepairNotRetreat. ⤵️

Whilst mainstream media looks the other way, @scotnational.bsky.social is leading the way.

@goodlawproject.bsky.social and @justtreatment.org set up a tool to help us check whether our local NHS trusts are adopting Palantir's software and, if so, to send an email calling on them to reject its use. Let's start emailing! notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-tar...

Asylum is about protecting people. But the Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Act, which received royal assent this week, treats asylum as a border security issue. It continues the trend of criminalising people seeking sanctuary. It builds walls against refugees. We need something different.

An important read: shado-mag.com/articles/can...

Profiteering doesn't stop at the door of asylum accommodation. 🚫 If we give these greedy companies an inch, they'll take a mile. It's on all of us to take a stand. Email your MP today to call for quality social housing FOR ALL 👇

I think this is a great example of what migrant rights organisations need to do: speak for everyone. Campaign for housing and workers rights for all in ways that solve the asylum-specific problems.

Refugee rights are under attack. ‼️ So help us supercharge our movement of welcome! ⚡️ Until 9 December, all donations are doubled ⤵️

And, worst of all, they take bookings in occupied Palestine. #NoBookingsOnStolenLand

You wouldn't know it from the headline, but taxis are the only option for attending medical appointments. People seeking sanctuary don't just jump in an Uber and invoice the UK taxpayer. Misleading, irresponsible reporting. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We're hiring! 👋 We are looking to recruit a qualified solicitor or IAA level 3 advisor who is also an IAAS Senior Caseworker to strengthen our legal team! Full details on the role can be found here: gmiau.org/new-opportun... We look forward to hearing from you!

My gratitude to those who coordinated this (very fast!) statement of consensus to recent announcements on UK asylum policy. I am grateful to have signed this with others studying and working in the field of asylum/migration studies and law. Please read and share! ilpa.org.uk/statement-of...

🚨 We’re launching #RepairNotRetreat. When the UK cuts aid, people lose access to care — especially communities hit by climate shocks, debt and fragile systems. It’s time for justice-led repair: long-term, people-first financing. ✍️ Add your name: healthyfutures.eaction.online/repairnotret...

🎉Migrants Organise is 32 today! In 1993, Migrants Organise began and grew to become a bold movement for migrant justice. This film, made two year ago, shares our story. Thank you for being on this journey with us- your solidarity is what keeps us going. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Clw...

This policy is a paradox.

Today is the 4th anniversary of the worst ever tragedy in the Channel. At least 27 men, women & children drowned in the freezing water, & 4 more have never been found. Since then, neither we nor the French have done a thing to offer people in this situation with real solutions.

The ‘ceasefire’ serves a strategic purpose for Israel/US. It enables the colonial decimation of Palestine to continue away from the world’s prying eyes. That’s why it’s in place.

🌱 Indigenous leaders at #COP30 are showing what real climate and health leadership looks like. Those closest to the impact have the solutions — but too often the least power and resources to adapt. Our campaign launches Monday. It’s time to #RepairNotRetreat.

Single most successful coverage event I've had as press officer @keepournhspublic.bsky.social was presenting our findings from The People's Covid Inquiry - chaired by Michael Mansfield KC. They reflected what was officially found today. Neither inquiry has the power to prosecute. Mores the pity.

Now that's a headline. #WorldToiletDay www.thenewhumanitarian.org/opinion/2025...

If ‘inhumanity’ was a headline. www.lbc.co.uk/article/fran...

A bleak week for refugee rights. On both sides of the Channel. France will start using nets to 'block the propellors' of small boats. Amid perilous seas and freezing temperatures, these tactics seem designed to cause deaths. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

A. Sivanandan of the @irrnews.bsky.social coined the phrase many years ago: “We are here because you were there”

"Our dreams of a better tomorrow may be similar to yours. We hope you will see us not as strangers, but as new neighbours who want to live in peace and grow together with you." @refugeeaction.bsky.social

‘Moving illegal migrants into military bases’ The same bases that saw outbreaks of diphtheria, TB and scabies? Where suicidal ideation and self-harm are common? Why are you rejoicing in this? (Plus it’s a dangerous lie to label people in hotels as ‘illegal migrants’)

🔔 A reminder.

SO important. Britain is even more obliged to support refugees due to the havoc it wreaked - and continues to wreak - through its imperial project. This cannot be left out of the narrative. (credit: @haringeywelcome.bsky.social)

Well that's a new one. We're all too familiar with Western media's persistent use of 'Hamas-run health ministry' over the past two years (to cast doubt over death tolls, legitimise attacks on hospitals etc). But BBC have even gone with 'Hamas-appointed mayor'.

Here are some statements we've seen today. We totally agree.

How can the same Government that shouts from the rooftops about how refugees must 'integrate' then turn around and make refugees ‘permanently temporary’? PS ‘integrate’ itself is a problematic term. It implies conditional belonging and serves as an internal border.

Never mind the performative cruelty & the stupidity of announcing “changes” which aren’t actually changes, there has obviously been no real analysis on how any of this will actually work. People having their status reviewed & potentially revoked every 2.5yrs for up to 20yrs -

This is a new low from a govt plumbing the depths of performative cruelty in hopes that the public won’t notice they have no answers to the real issues facing this country A sensible, humane govt would focus on safe routes to prevent people making dangerous small boat crossings

I truly can’t get over the optics of this. People fleeing the legacy of Britain’s colonial plunder will have their jewellery and valuables taken upon arrival in the colonial metropole. Wow.

This comes as no surprise. Britain knows all about stealing valuable assets from other countries. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Britain, the coloniser and destabiliser of the globe, decrees: “The era of permanent protection for refugees is over.” Wow, Labour. You’ve really outdone yourselves here.

When it comes to NHS privatisation, us Boyles know the score ✊😉

Leaving aside the obvious injustice and abdication of humanitarian responsibilities, it will be interesting to see how racialised this move is. Will Ukrainian refugees be denied permanent settlement? Or just the 'undesirable' refugees? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
