UK migrant families face giving up vital in-work benefits to avoid being β€˜punished’ Under Shabana Mahmood’s proposals, wait for settled status would double to 20 years if public funds used while in work

πŸ“’"It’s like you have to choose between settlement and surviving."

Essential reading from @ramfel.bsky.social exposing how families are being punished simply for accessing the support they were legally entitled to.

1/ Coverage in @theguardian.com of our research on how the govt's so-called 'earned settlement model' will plunge racialised British children into poverty by punishing their parents for receiving basic state support.

Big news! @bma.org.uk now advising doctors not to engage with Palantir's NHS data platform! They say there must be a "complete break from Palantir technologies in the NHS", due to the company's track record, e.g. with ICE, and the risk to patient trust. www.bmj.com/content/392/...

A privilege to attend the launch of Hostile Housing last week! πŸ πŸ”’

To maximise their profits, private companies are delivering a system based on containment not care, harming the health of people seeking asylum.

Enough is enough. It's time to take a stand.

πŸ“’ @andyburnham.bsky.social agrees with us. Why doesn’t MFT?

Thanks to everyone who came out on Wednesday to oppose this injustice. But to win, we need even more support.

@goodlawproject.bsky.social and @justtreatment.org set up a tool to help us check whether our local NHS trusts are adopting Palantir's software and, if so, to send an email calling on them to reject its use. Let's start emailing!

It’s down to us to take action.

We’re at a loss as to why Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) hasn’t intervened to stop this injustice.

Through their inaction, they are failing to uphold the values of respect, dignity and compassion that the NHS should represent.
