“It is alarming that latest official figures show that only just over half of decisions made on Afghan cases have been granted protection over the last year & that over 3k Afghans are awaiting news of their fate." Our CEO @EnverSol on today's asylum stats

This is the message that so many have dreaded. Removing the £20 per week increase to #UniversalCredit will push more people further into debt and poverty. The Chancellor, @RishiSunak, should do the right thing and cancel the cut.

The UK asylum system subjects refugees to a nightmare of enforced poverty, bureaucracy and isolation. This will apply to Afghans as much as everyone else

It's vital we step up solidarity with refugees and opposition to the govt's hostile envt.

Despicable violent racist attack in Shoreditch in July. Victim was attacked with metal object, needed facial reconstruction surgery & left severely traumatised. Perpetrators must be found & prosecuted! #StopRacistAttacks

Chinese people have expressed concerns about this @Channel4 so-called documentary. Blaming China for a global pandemic has led to violent attacks on Chinese & East Asian communities since the start of the pandemic. This type of coverage could exacerbate racism & sinophobia.

PM @BorisJohnson needs to step in, 13 days since @DominicRaab committed to a safe passage out of #Afghanistan for media workers but there’s still no policy. Urgent action is needed to facilitate visas. The lives of journalists & their families depend on this. #media #journalism

There is now a humanitarian emergency in Afghanistan. We must urgently meet our obligations to Afghan refugees, while learning the lessons of two decades of devastating war and failure.
