@migrantsorganise
Migrants Organise is a grassroots platform where migrants and refugees organise for justice. In 1993 we came to life in living rooms across West London, where migrant leaders would provide support to their communities. www.migrantsorganise.org
📢This government wants to make safety and belonging limited to only a few. People who are constantly told to “integrate” will be kept in protracted limbo.
Our members will be joining the action to speak out next week- you can too!
➡️ www.praxis.org.uk/mass-lobby-a...
In just over a week, we'll be uniting with grassroots groups, unions and allies from across the country to tell MPs loud and clear: oppose the harmful earned settlement plans.
There has never been a more important moment to stand with migrants and refugees.
🚨The government is rushing through new rules making it harder for people to belong in our communities.
It takes just 2 minutes to share your concerns about "earned settlement" with you MP, using this template from @praxisprojects.bsky.social 🔽

The conversation about housing is all wrong.
For decades, governments haven’t built enough social homes. People are struggling. Yet refugees get blamed.
Our new video flips the narrative and focuses on the real issue.
Watch it. Share it. Let’s change the conversation.

⚠️New @ippr.org research: 300,000 children will be hit by the Govt’s earned settlement plans.
Retrospective changes will deepen child poverty, block access to higher education & trap families in years of uncertainty.
This is precarity by design.

Recognition is a vital part of making change- let's spread the word!
Currently, private companies deliver a service so bad it causes mental and physical harm. All while raking millions of public money in profits.
Read @migrantsorganise.bsky.social and @medact.bsky.social's new 'Hostile Housing' report for more 👇
www.migrantsorganise.org/new-report-h...
As the government moves to shut down “asylum hotels,” we renew our demands for safer, community focused housing models.
It’s time to end this “containment over care” asylum accommodation model.

This report represents 18 months of work of gathering evidence, reflections, and testimony to honour and document this moment we are in.
This is our reality and we will not let it go unrecorded.
www.migrantsorganise.org/new-report-h...
This system of warehousing people in barracks, ‘detention’ hotels, and crumbling flats that strip them of their dignity is part of the cruel-by-design hostile environment immigration system—but we continue to fight back.
Asylum housing harms health!
Right now, people seeking protection are living in hostile housing that harms their health, whilst private companies make bumper profits.
Hostile Housing, our new report with @medact.bsky.social, shares the lived realities ⬇️

We stand in solidarity with those at Harmondsworth & Brook House who are organising for justice.
This shameful attempt to silence protest demonstrates the everyday violence at the heart of the hostile environment.
We amplify detainees' calls for dignity and humane living conditions. #EndDetention
Even if it's voluntary, Digital ID still creates a surveillance infrastructure.
This could be expanded later on as a requirement to access public services.
As we've seen with eVisas, digitalising interactions with the State without physical backups creates problems for people in their real lives.
"The question is not whether migration will define the next century. It will. The only question is: what kind of world do we want to build in response?"

The right to protest must be defended.
We call on the British government to immediately drop its dangerous proposal and repeal the succession of anti-protest laws on which it builds.
New year, same hostility.
Today, new powers come into force subjecting men, women & children to invasive searches - including inside their mouths - to seize their phones.
This comes despite a 2022 court ruling that found a similar policy unlawful.

Today @hmiprisonsnews.bsky.social released an inspection report on Derwentside.
📢 The report shows what we already know: detention harms.
➡️ Pregnant women & survivors of violence are still detained
➡️ Vulnerabilities ignored
Detention is never safe. It’s time to #EndDetention.
