It was a pleasure to speak with @cnni this morning about the UK's Rwanda removals policy. We @DetentionAction continue to call on the government to abandon this cruel, inhumane & unworkable policy, & urgently establish safe routes for people to claim asylum
The Rwanda plan is plain cruelty. Hundreds or even thousands of people seeking asylum face being forced onto planes bound for Rwanda, where they risk being returned to danger in the countries they fled. If you oppose this cruel scheme, take action today: change.org/p/stop-the-rwa…
Our Director, @jamescwilson35, in the @Independent: Airlines must not profit from the misery and human rights abuses caused by the Rwanda plan. If businesses can ignore human rights and international law when it suits them, it puts us all at risk. independent.co.uk/news/uk/rishi-…
Yesterday , @allies_justice and @Famil_4Justice enjoyed an insightful workshop all about the human rights and key rights in the UK Human rights Act. Human rights aren’t just a gift but an entitlement by the mere fact that one is a human being🙏. Appreciation to @BIHRhumanright
We are deeply saddened by reports that people have died in the Channel this morning. Our thoughts are with their families and loved ones.

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Following the passing of the dangerous 'Safety of Rwanda' Bill last night, we've joined a diverse group of more than 250 organisations in condemning this government's cruel Rwanda plan. Together, we've written to the Prime Minister. detentionaction.org.uk/2024/04/23/251…
#UK: Airlines should not facilitate unlawful removals of asylum-seekers to Rwanda 🇷🇼, UN experts say. Such actions might make these companies complicit in violating internationally protected #HumanRights and court orders. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
🚨 BREAKING 🚨 PM Rishi Sunak has announced that his government has booked commercial planes to remove people to Rwanda, but today UN experts warned that any airline involved could be complicit in human rights violations, following our urgent submission. detentionaction.org.uk/2024/04/22/un-…
"The reality is that the Supreme Court found that Rwanda is not a safe country for people seeking asylum. Between 2020 and 2022, Rwanda rejected 100% of asylum claims from people fleeing Afghanistan, Yemen and Syria", says our Campaigns Manager, speaking on @LBCNews this morning.
As this government continues to pursue its dangerous deal with the Rwandan government - which could see thousands of people seeking asylum removed from the UK by force - Rwanda's national airline has reportedly rejected proposals to operate those flights. ft.com/content/1251e4…
We have joined dozens of charities and organisations making an urgent call on the Home Secretary to create a scheme that allows people in Gaza to join their families in the UK, similar to the scheme established by this government for Ukrainian refugees. theguardian.com/world/2024/apr…
🚨 BREAKING 🚨 We welcome news that the Home Secretary has abandoned plans for a new detention centre at Manston in Kent, but we remain alarmed by this government's plan to detain thousands more people each year to support its dangerous deal with Rwanda. theisleofthanetnews.com/2024/03/20/per…
Africa News reports on the impact of the UK-Rwanda deal on people seeking asylum in the UK: "Sami is a 20-year-old refugee from Afghanistan who left his home country aged 16, after his family was killed..." africanews.com/2024/03/14/uk-…
As MPs and peers scrutinise the misleadingly named 'Safety of Rwanda' bill, an investigation by @FT highlights that existing detention centres - already harsh, prison-like and under-resourced - lack capacity for the people this government wants to detain. ft.com/content/317b2a…
Yesterday evening the House of Lords voted for five vital amendments to this government's dangerous "Safety of Rwanda Bill", including one which would require the new law to comply fully with domestic and international law. ft.com/content/7cfe67…
The costs of this government's cruel and dangerous deal with the Rwandan regime continue to spiral, as the National Audit Office finds the cost of the policy could rocket to more than £541 million for the first 300 people removed. theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/m…
