This right-wing conservative government has just published a new migration bill.\u00a0 They intend to stop people coming by boat to seek asylum in Britain.\u00a0The vast majority of refugees have no way to legally reach the UK to claim asylum, regardless of how strong their need for protection is.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The legislation, if passed, would amount to an asylum ban \u2013 ending the right to seek refugee protection in the United Kingdom for those who arrive irregularly.\u00a0 This would be a clear breach of the Refugee Convention.<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Bill is terrifying for\u00a0everyone, not just refugees, since it establishes a precedent that the government can choose to disregard human rights and almost completely avoid legal repercussions because the Bill is written to elevate the government above the law.<\/span><\/h3>\n

This bill will not stop people. people will find even more dangerous routes to cross. When people are fleeing, there\u2019s nothing in this world that can stop them.<\/span><\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We call on\u00a0trade unions,\u00a0human rights\u00a0organisation and freedom loving people to write to\u00a0their MP in order to put pressure on the conservative government to stop demonising refugees and immigrants and creating a hostile environment.<\/span><\/h3>\n
