Home Office may forcibly remove child asylum seekers from UK in handcuffs
Move is part of scheme to target families for expedited voluntary removals before enforced removal proceedings
The Home Office wants to handcuff children during forced removals of families.
This level of violence & dehumanisation must never be normalised, our spokesperson Griff Ferris warns.
Stand up for your neighbours.
Organise locally.
Boycott border profiteers.

Shame on you Air France.
You are forcibly deporting people who came to the UK seeking safety, many fleeing war, persecution and climate breakdown.
Stop these cruel deportations, now.
Join the boycott of Air France until they commit to stopping these inhumane deportations.

While others expand protection, this Government retreats.
It ignores climate displacement, deepens the hostile environment, and scapegoats refugees for crises of its own making.
We demand an end to the hostility towards the most vulnerable while it fuels wars abroad.

This scandal-ridden government is scapegoating migrants for its own failures to tackle the concerns that really matter to people: the cost of living crisis, unemployment & housing.
The UK should look to Spain, not Denmark, welcome migrants & regularise all undocumented people.

Today, weβre writing to the Prime Minister, calling on the UK Government to abolish citizenship stripping.
Using these extreme powers, the Home Secretary can deprive some British citizens of legal rights simply by saying it is 'conducive to the public good' to do so.

UK migrant families face giving up vital in-work benefits to avoid being βpunishedβ
Under Shabana Mahmoodβs proposals, wait for settled status would double to 20 years if public funds used while in work
What this means is that the UK government is going to entrench child poverty, deep poverty, and homelessness for many people across the country.

Migrants launch court bid to halt one-in, one-out deportations to France
Legal challenge comes as a coalition of UK and French charities issue a statement warning of widespread failures under the flagship deal
The UK-France deportation scheme is cruel and inhumane and amounts to state-sponsored human trafficking.
We stand with @detentionaction.bsky.social, @biddetention.bsky.social, @migrantsrights.bsky.social and others in Britain and France calling for it to end.

The government continues to perpetrate this cruelty and violence in an increasingly desperate attempt to court the far right.
Behind these numbers are real people who have had their lives torn apart.

Home Office says nearly 60,000 people deported from UK or left voluntarily since 2024 election
Shabana Mahmood insists deportations will rise, as Labour government is accused of promoting βharmful stereotypesβ of migrants
The government has gone very far down a very dark road.
This announcement of mass deportations while also seeking to gut rights protections is frightening.
Meanwhile, the home secretary is openly using fascist rhetoric.

This isnβt a serious plan. Itβs punitive, reactive policymaking designed to appease far-right narratives, targeting those who already have so little.
Ministers need to stop dancing to that tune and start building systems that are humane, robust, and actually work.
