The CJEU has ruled that Member States cannot prosecute asylum-seeking mothers who travelled on false documents with their children as people smugglers - in a judgment with broader implications for the criminalisation of immigration.

Please read or watch OCHA head Tom Fletcherโs remarkable and damning UNSC briefing.
Based on this fast and excellent WaPo reporting, these four guys are not gang members, just Venezuelan dads who came to the US to work. Theyโre now being paraded in shackles in El Salvador www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

My 3-year-old daughter:
- says 'lovely' for everything.
- refuses to put her gloves on whatever the weather.
- loves 'pudding' after 'tea'.
- corrects my pronunciation.
- assures me I'm 'most welcome'.
Her parents were not born in the UK.
My daughter is English.
And Suella Braverman is wrong.
๐งตUK immigration department culture
Iโve litigated against the dept for most of last 33 years, reading civil service files & witness statmts, sometimes talking confidentially to them. For almost 8 yrs, I sat on Gov Committee that writes rules for immigrtโn appeals & so consults directly with them 1/

If we give someone refugee status, it can't be right to then refuse them route to become a British Citizen. To say they can have a home in our country, but never a place in our society and be forever second class. freemovement.org.uk/good-charact...

The Spanish Minister of Home Affairs rejects the suspension of asylum processing for Syrians.
He argued that the situation in #Syria is unclear. He cautioned against the adoption of measures that could undermine the right of Syrians to seek #asylum.
๐งต It is incredulous that within just days of the Assad regime's fall, a number of European countries, including Germany, Austria, Denmark, and others have announced pauses in the processing of asylum applications. (1)
Amnesty International firmly rejects current calls to forcibly return Syrians, cease or review their #refugee status or restrict or suspend their family reunification procedures.

Truly hope the images of starved & tortured freed detainees, some of whom canโt recall their name or havenโt had news from outside world in decades, haunt those who kept claiming Syria was safe / pushed for refugeesโ return. Though that would assume baseline for morality / expectation of remorse.
#Sednaya โ all who were murdered and tortured there must be accounted for. International fact-finding and forensic capacity must be deployed with urgency and speed. If international criminal justice was meant for anything โ it was meant for this.

Thinking about those slaughtered, imprisoned, tortured; those who were made disappear; those who were forced to flee, those whose lives were shattered by the regime, who had to endure the separation of family members.
Whatever the future holds, the future belongs to Syrians.

Quote from Budour Hassan, Amnesty International researcher: "If there is any country that has the capacity, the power and the tools to stop this genocide, it's the United States. It has consistently continued to flout the United Statesโ own laws in order to continue giving Israel the weapons โ the very same weapons that are used by Israel to commit the genocide in Gaza."

Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza, a landmark report from Amnesty International published today concluded, the organizationโs first such determination during an active armed conflict.
Amnesty International on Thursday became the first major international human rights organization to accuse Israel of carrying out genocide in Gaza, drawing a rebuke from Israeli officials who denied the claim.

More by Amnesty on the genocidal intent in its #GazaGenocide report. Usually, the special intent / dolus specialis part is hardest to establish in court because it has to be inferred from conduct: genocidaires seldom state their intent explicitly. It may be different this time.
It is #genocide.

Talking of immigration as a "failure" is a dangerous move, which has been shown to stoke hostility against migrants. It is insulting to those of us who have made our lives here, and is akin to the same hostile rhetoric which helped stoke the riots we saw earlier this year.
ECJ found that the discriminatory measures imposed on women deliberately & systematically denies them fundamental rights solely because of their gender, reflecting "the establishment of a social structure based on a regime of segregation & oppression" #Afghanistan
