Two years after at least 27 people died whilst attempting to cross the Channel by small boat to seek safety in the UK, 102 activists, organisations, and networks from across Europe, Africa, and North America have signed a statement demanding a “an urgent and radical change in the policies” at the shared Belgium-France-UK border and calling for “the right to life” of people on the move to be respected.

We have written the following letter to

Councillor Paul Barnett - Leader of Hastings Borough CouncilCouncillor Simon Willis - Member with Housing PortfolioChris Hancock - Head of Housing for Hastings Borough Council. As you will be aware, it has been confirmed by the Home Office and their contractors that the hotel in Hastings which has been used to accommodate people seeking asylum since November 2022 will be closed by January 2024.

Statement on the Rwanda Plan decision

We are delighted that the Supreme Court has upheld the decision that the Government’s Rwanda plan is unlawful.

The Court agreed that there was “a real risk of deported refugees having their claims wrongly assessed, or being returned to their Country of origin”
