🚨 Our new report, out today, shows that we're heading towards a catastrophic system meltdown because of the Illegal Migration Act and the Rwanda Plan. Over 100,000 people seeking asylum will be stranded in “permanent limbo” by the end of 2024. 🧵

We showed up to Serco’s AGM today to deliver a clear message: shareholders, show up! It’s time for Serco to stop profiting from cruel hostile environment policies. #SercoAndProud? shareholdersshowup.org
Great to take part in a brilliant event by @JCWI_UK, bringing together a breadth of inspiring people working towards a compassionate immigration system.
Our JCWI #TimeIsNow event, where we’ve launched our manifesto, has kicked off. Wonderful to hear our lived experience advisory board member Shamim Sarabi, deliver our keynote speech - to demand ‘people can live a free, fair + dignified life regardless of immigration status’
I hope now @BBCNews , @SkyNews , @Channel4News stop giving extremists platform. Someone and a Party like the Reform Party which they want to have a policy to leave people drowning in the sea.
About 12 years ago I was the form tutor for a year 7 group at an all boys secondary school in central London. One morning I asked them if they had ever been stopped and searched. Every black child in the class raised their hand. Most had been stopped multiple times. They were 11.

THE BEST OF KENT! ❤️
Today Margate residents stopped the Home Office from taking 22 asylum seekers from a local “contingency accommodation” to the Bibby Stockholm barge. Incredible “unity in community” indeed ❤️
Just arrived at the @JCWI_UK event in London where they are launching 'We Move: A manifesto for migrant justice'. I love the way organisations like this are using the upcoming election to leverage for positive change. Let's see more of this! ✊🏼✊🏾✊🏿
@JCWI_UK @bluewendysday We need safe routes, not forced deportations, @JonathanLord. The govt is out of touch with the public on this matter. #RwandaNotInMyName #RefugeesWelcome

🚨BREAKING: This govt's shameful #Rwanda Plan has just become Law after passing royal assent. This is a dark day but together we can stand against the cruel Act, and stand for welcome + community instead. 👇🏽Sign our pledge to say #NotRwandaNotAnywhere …hewelfareofimmigrants.beaconforms.com/form/ee3d4d40
“The Government must listen to the people, abandon this deplorable deal with Rwanda…and protect those who need sanctuary” We stand in solidarity with everyone speaking out for migrant justice. Together we’ll continue to work towards a society built on care and mutual respect✊
✊🏽We are standing together against the cruel Rwanda Act. That is why we & 250 other organisations wrote to the PM about about our shared outrage on this despicable assault on the most marginalised in our society. #NotRwandaNotAnywhere Read more👇🏽
We @CentreforMH full support this statement and share the concerns about the impact of this Act of Parliament on people’s health and human rights

If anyone I know is going to be at the @JCWI_UK event this afternoon I'd love to say hello 👋🏼
It was a very impromptu last minute event, but Folkestone people still turned out to say they want #SafeRoutesNow for those trying to reach the UK, and it made the local news. This town always steps up. As ever proud to be a part of this community.
With open hatred playing out on our streets & in our communities. ‘The idea that some lives matter less is the route of all that’s wrong in the World’, it personifies this scheme & its legacy of damage on all of us. So now we wait for them to finish their pantomime…
spoke to politicans, leaders and orgs inc. @jeremycorbyn, @carla_denyer, @LSRPlaid, @JCWI_UK, @libertyhq and @FreefromTorture to get their takes ahead of tonights big votes: huckmag.com/article/rwanda…
🗣️ “When the dust settles on this and we look back, this will be a crisis, in terms of the human damage that it’s done, on the par with Windrush and on the par with the Post Office Horizon scandal” – @Mellino
This bill is barbaric and immoral. It must be scrapped.
As this govt's shameful Rwanda Bill returns to parliament this week, here's a reminder of those who've spoken against the plan: ⏺️ the UN Human Rights Committee ⏺️ the Supreme Court ⏺️ the Archbishop of Canterbury ⏺️ 100s of local councillors ⏺️ tens of 1000s of UK public
@JCWI_UK Plus people who have lived and worked in #Rwanda and know the reality at local levels, where these people must somehow make a new life. x.com/LowrieJohn/sta…
@Haggis_UK Well said but to which I'd say again a country is only as safe as its appointed state actors down to local levels charged with enforcing laws. #Rwanda is not alone in local officials doing their own thing, when it suits, sometimes the bidding of others. x.com/LowrieJohn/sta…
And yes, we absolutely should be doing the same for those from Sudan - many who, like Afghans, are being forced to cross by small boat in ever greater numbers.
