More than 1 in 5 children in care in England are placed over 20 miles from home – some as far as 500 miles. That's #GoneTooFar.
Children should be kept close to the people and places that matter to them 💜 Can you help us reach 10,000 signatures? https://t.co/vzao0rN3YQ

#TheTruthBehindOnlyFans
MYTH #2: OnlyFans is safe

OnlyFans hosts image-based abuse, covertly recorded pornography, AI deepfakes, and child sexual abuse images. Creators face stalking, harassment, blackmail, and pressure for extreme content.

Does this sound safe?

A statement from our CEO @MoazzamTMalik on the news that the government is cutting the UK aid budget to fund an increase in defence spending:

“We are stunned by this decision to cut the aid budget in order to increase military spending. It is a betrayal of the world’s most vulnerable children and the UK’s national interest.

By jeopardising the UK’s partnership with countries across the world and international organisations, it signals a withdrawal from efforts to tackle climate change, global poverty and inequality, and conflict and humanitarian needs. It will damage efforts to tackle global health needs and pandemics. It will add to economic instability internationally. The impacts will have direct consequences for children and families in the UK as well as around the world.

This decision comes at a time when global solidarity has never been more important. Other countries will watch the UK’s decision and are likely to follow suit in reducing commitments to international collaboration. It will undermine aspirations to build a ‘rules based order’ that is so essential for the UK’s long-term security and prosperity. It will make the world a more dangerous place for children now and in the future.

This decision flies in the face of the government’s commitment to respectful partnerships with the global south. There is nothing respectful about slashing lifelines for families in the most dangerous places. Earlier this week, the Prime Minister promised to ‘stand with Ukraine’. Now he’s serving notice on the support needed by the country’s children, who have been forced from their homes, seen their schools bombed and lived in fear for three years.

Through UK aid, we all help protect children facing the worst the world has to offer. We have every reason to be proud of it and the government should fearlessly protect it.”

Social housing is "the single best investment the government could make" in the Spending Review says @AndyBurnhamGM at @crisis_uk Homelessness Summit.

90k new social homes needed per year, as many charities and organisations calling for including Emmaus UK.

"When a homeless family is placed in temporary accommodation, of course their GP and the children's schools should be notified. It's extraordinary that it doesn't happen right now." @Siobhain_Mc

Change starts with understanding. Throughout #gobacktowhereyoucamefrom, we’ve seen how meeting refugees, hearing their stories, and witnessing the reality of seeking safety can shift hearts and minds. We all have the power to challenge myths, build empathy, and push for a fairer asylum system. Find out what you can do to make a difference 👇 https://t.co/UsGLTZQ6nM

Children climbing into lorries, risking everything for safety. The best way of stopping people making dangerous journeys is by having safe and legal routes.  #goback #Channel4 #gobacktowhereyoucamefrom

Christine Allen, CAFOD's Director responds to the PM's announcement on aid cuts:

“The decision by the British government to reduce ODA from 0.5% to 0.3% means that in some of the most vulnerable places on earth, more people will die and many more will lose their livelihoods."

[Refugee Council 🧡 @refugeecouncil]

"I was told there were no women and children on small boats. I was wrong." Misinformation shapes how we see the world. When we hear the truth, perspectives shift. The reality? Make it safe. Make it legal. #goback #Channel4 #gobacktowhereyoucamefrom

[National Housing Federation @natfednews]

The absence of #BuildingSafety funding for #SocialHousing means residents are having to wait, as housing associations do all they can to cover costs.

This unjust funding regime is impacting new and existing social housing.

Govt must give social housing equal access to funding.

As Prof Mary Bosworth says, the govt's new contract for more removal work portrays a lack of fresh ideas. It highlights a failure, or perhaps refusal, to understand how this business destroys both the lives of those subject to it and undermines wider social cohesion in the UK.

Earlier this month the Prime Minister said he would do everything he can to secure the release of Alaa - now is the time to turn promises into results.

Alaa Abdel Fattah is a British national, a writer and a father of a young son who was born while Alaa was in prison. Alaa advocated for human rights in Egypt, and has been unjustly imprisoned since 2019 for his human rights work.

The Government must make Alaa’s case a top priority – delaying action any further could be a matter of life and death.

Veurika claimed asylum here, fearing removal she attempted suicide in May ‘24 & died by suicide in June.

Around the same time the Tory government were broadcasting ‘promo’ footage of arrests for removal. This is the impact of such brutality.

Refugees have already endured war, torture, and persecution. Seeking safety shouldn’t mean sleeping rough, being mistreated, or having no way to rebuild. #goback #Channel4 #gobacktowhereyoucamefrom
