Billionaire wealth has grown to £784 billion, while 1 in 3 children live in poverty. And they want you to think that immigrants are the problem.

Net migration has fallen to its lowest since Covid, yet politicians and media still scapegoat migrants & refugees when they should be fixing the cost of living crisis & inequality. Our communities, public services, & economy would fall apart without migration. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Franciscan Brother and immigration advisor at Praxis has a message for Tommy Robinson.

Saturday's "Unite the Kingdom" rally was full of openly Islamophobic and racist rhetoric. These are not just speeches, they lead to real violence against Muslims and people of colour. The Gov's lack of comment is on this isn't good enough, and only furthers these narratives by not calling them out.

Our exhibition at Rich Mix is opening next week! Still time to sign up for our exciting event programme. richmix.org.uk/events/fragm...

The King’s speech was a chance to change course to one that confronts the cost of living crisis, tackles deepening wealth inequality, and builds a society where everyone belongs, no matter where they were born. 1/3

"Doubling down on policies that mimic the logic of the far right will not restore public confidence, rebuild communities or defeat Reform." @minnierahman.bsky.social reflects on the local election results in @lbc.co.uk www.lbc.co.uk/article/labo...

This is sickening - driven by violent racism and hate. Views like this have no place in our society and demands urgent investigation. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

"I see the impact of Reform UK policies on Britain’s growth as, in some ways, akin to the large, adverse impact on the Ugandan economy of the forced expulsions by Idi Amin in the early 1970s." www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Imagine if this was about bin collections instead. This has nothing to do with migrants & everything to do with a party running scared of progressive policies. Instead of hope, they offer blackmail. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Alongside +140 other orgs, we're sounding the alarm over the Government's "sustained attack on children's rights" in their migration plans - from handcuffing children to keeping 90,000 children trapped in poverty. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

"It is the first time such a large Labour-affiliated union is lobbying en masse against a key party policy." Incredible organising from migrant care workers against the the Government's earned settlement proposals. The Home Secretary must listen and stop these harmful plans now.

Absolutely shocking to see the Home Secretary tell protestors to “fuck right off” and joke about tasering and deporting opposition leaders. 1/2 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

2 in 5 international health workers are considering leaving the UK - many because they no longer feel welcome amid hostile rhetoric. New findings from @unison.org.uk show settlement changes would be a disaster for patients, staff & the British public alike. www.independent.co.uk/news/health/...

1 in 50 Londoners are currently living in temporary accommodation. Many without a kitchen, washing machine, or Wi-Fi, for months and often years. With every borough going to election in May, there's a real opportunity to push for change. It’s time to Fix the Five Basics.

The 'earned settlement' changes will only deliver a fraction of claimed savings, according to the Government's own data. This totally undermines the Gov's own rationale for going ahead with the disastrous plans. Thanks to a FOI request by @jdportes.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

The Home Office is closing down hotels and moving people seeking asylum to warehouses & ex-military sites. This week they are holding an "industry day" for private companies about the £10 billion contract. This is the asylum scandal we should be talking about. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

💬 "Moving to an ‘Earned Settlement’ model, we are taking that stake away. Taking it away from those who have spent years working and contributing to the economy. We are moving the goalposts, and that is not fair." @emilythornberry.bsky.social in @politicshome.bsky.social tinyurl.com/59vyux4x

The Government has been feeling the heat recently, and it’s not from the weather. The pressure is on from people up and down the country, including hundreds of MPs, to scrap their cruel “earned” settlement plans. Join the movement for migrant rights: act.praxis.org.uk/join

When safe routes are restricted to the point of near non-existence, people fleeing war and persecution are forced into dangerous journeys. This is not inevitable. It is the result of political choices. And there is a solution: Safe routes save lives.

Three of the UK’s largest children’s charities are urging a U-turn on the Government’s earned settlement changes. Proposed ILR changes would keep 90,000 children trapped in poverty. Migration policy should help reduce child poverty - not drive it. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

The Government's cruel changes to settlement rules will tear families apart and push people into years of fear and uncertainty. Opposition is growing from MPs and the public alike. The Government must listen and stop these harmful plans now. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

These deaths are tragic, and completely avoidable. Our thoughts are with their loved ones, and everyone who was on the boat. Until meaningful safe routes are established, lives will continue to be put at risk. Safe routes, NOW. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

“International asylum law should be permanent. It is the wrong approach to use money to meddle in processes that are about trying to protect people.” - Antonio, someone supported by Praxis, on his thoughts on Home Office payments to ask asylum seekers to leave the UK. inews.co.uk/news/im-an-a...

On Saturday half a million people showed up in London to march against the far-right. Together, we said NO to the politics of division and hate that scapegoat migrant communities for crises they didn’t create. We’re proud to march for and alongside migrant communities.

📢"We are telling the workers we need most that Britain is not a serious place to build a career. Earned settlement is not about cutting immigration. It is about who belongs. The Government should abandon it." @oliviablakemp.bsky.social in @labourlist.bsky.social labourlist.org/2026/03/gove...

Far-right narratives are no longer on the fringes. They are moving to the mainstream and migrants and refugees are on the frontline.⁠ ⁠ Let's make clear, this is not who we are. March with us on Saturday.⁠ 12pm, Park Lane.⁠ More info👉 www.togetheralliance.org.uk

New analysis shows state policies to stop small boat crossings are driving deaths in the Channel. Border policing doesn’t save lives - it forces people into deadlier routes. It's clearer than ever: deterrence policies don't work. We must open safe routes now. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

"My heart is broken into pieces....We worked hard to put food on the table, to care for our children, and now you are telling us that we have to wait longer for our Indefinite Leave to Remain."

Stand with us against the far-right. Saturday, 12pm. Park Lane. Let's show up in our numbers to say loud and clear: migrants and refugees are welcome here. Video credit: ChooseLove

Immigration enforcement is far from new, but it has got worse under Labour. There's always a significant degree of racial profiling in raids, along with a routine failure to protect victims of exploitation and modern slavery, favouring Instesd to penalise them. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Doubling down on hardline measures because people oppose them just takes us further in the wrong direction. With MPs, community groups & the public all raising serious concerns about these immigration plans, the government should be listening - not escalating. www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/202...

The Govt. hasn’t published its assessment of how its immigration changes will impact the UK, so we did it for them. Our analysis found 90,000 kids will be locked into prolonged poverty as a result - from a Govt. committed to ending poverty for all children? www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Pressure is mounting on the Prime Minister - with hundreds of Labour MPs, including Angela Rayner, calling for the proposed settlement changes to be scrapped. Let's keep the pressure on - sign our open letter to the Home Secretary: act.praxis.org.uk/open-letter-...

📢"Being British is about looking after each other, commitment to international conventions, equality before the law & making sure wealth isn’t hoarded at the very top. These are the values the Labour Party was founded on." @minnierahman.bsky.social for @lbc.co.uk www.lbc.co.uk/article/ange...

This backlash is well overdue and has been bubbling for a little while. @praxisprojects.bsky.social mass lobby last week, we had such a high turnout of MPs. All agreeing as a baseline that this should not be applied retrospectively to migrants already here, and that MPs should have a proper say.

This time last week, over 500 people marched to Parliament and met with over 100 MPs about the Government's devastating proposed changes to settlement. And we're not stopping here. It's vital we keep up the pressure. Sign the open letter to the Home Secretary. act.praxis.org.uk/open-letter-...

Pressure is growing to reverse the changes to settlement - and the Government must listen. This isn’t just about migrants. It’s about the kind of country we choose to be. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Yesterday 100s of people from across the UK came together in Parliament to meet with their MPs about the Govt.'s disastrous earned settlement plans. Together, we shared our concerns directly with 80+ MPs. A massive thank you to everyone who joined & helped make it happen. This is just the start.

Still reeling from brilliant @praxisprojects.bsky.social mass lobby yesterday. Final numbers tbc but 80+ MPs met with campaigners from across the country! Brilliant speakers Olivia Blake, Hannah Spencer, @zoejardiniere.bsky.social and RCN. I feel optimistic about what we can achieve.

Such an important campaign for our members: pleased to join @praxisprojects.bsky.social at Parliament today to highlight how these proposed immigration reforms risk driving up migrant homelessness and rough sleeping.

(1) Today we are in Parliament with @praxisprojects.bsky.social and Citizens UK lobbying against the government's #EarnedSettlement proposals. Survivors of #HumanTrafficking and #ModernSlavery face a disproportionate risk of being barred from settlement.

Hoping to meet my MP (@labourlewis.bsky.social) at the mass lobby arranged by @praxisprojects.bsky.social, to ask him to reject the government's hostile changes to settlement for migrants

We’re proud to be attending a mass lobby in Parliament today. ✊📣 Hundreds of people will be meeting with their MPs to discuss the harmful and cruel Earned Settlement proposals. We’re attending to share our grave concerns. 1/🧵

“I live in fear that one day our visa application will be rejected and the police will come and force us to go back to Togo. Here my daughter has the healthcare she needs.” Hear from a mother supported by Praxis about the impact of the Govt.’s settlement changes. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Today is the Mass Lobby for Migrant Rights. Hundreds are uniting in Parliament with one clear message for our MPs: scrap the earned settlement plans. There has never been a more important moment to stand with migrants and refugees. Support from home👉 www.praxis.org.uk/mass-lobby-s...

Excited for @praxisprojects.bsky.social mass lobby in Westminster today! We’ve got over 600 people signed up to say no to the settlement changes. Let’s convince some MPs not to ruin this country 👍🏽
