Tomorrow, 12th of June, the European Migration and Asylum Pact comes into force. An important premise of the Pact is that more restrictive measures will deter irregular migration towards Europe. But does deterrence actually work? Not according to our findings ⬇️⬇️⬇️

“Practices labelled ‘extreme’ in 2019 are now so entrenched they'd scarcely be remarkable enough to feature in this year’s review.” 
@BramFrouws & Chris Horwood look at how 'acceptable' migration policy has shifted & what it means for people on the move.

Catherine Woollard- Everyone has an obligation to do what they can in the face of hostile policies, be it the Danish model, the UK model, or the 1930s model; none of these is new. There was resistance before, and there will be resistance now and in the future, in all forms. #MMR2025

Being extreme is not normalised, but you get attention by sounding extreme. Now you can make a whole career out of saying extreme things and monetize it even if you don't get political power #MMR2025

@gabriel_zucman Merci, Gabriel Zucman — on ne baisse pas les bras ! Mobilisation sur le terrain, pétition, pression directe sur nos élus dans leurs circonscriptions : on doit leur demander des comptes.

Nos représentants ne pourront pas maintenir éternellement les privilèges fiscaux des milliardaires.

Aujourd’hui marque le commencement d’une grande bataille citoyenne pour la justice fiscale 🧵

⚠️Armed violence against people on the move and rescue NGOs is escalating alarmingly. There have been 2 attacks since Friday, a total of 4 in the past 6 weeks.

‼️Again, Italy & the EU must stop supporting and financing these actions and ensure accountability for the perpetrators

The Western Indian Ocean Route is vast, dangerous, and largely invisible, spanning from the Great Lakes region and Somalia to Madagascar, the Comoros, and Mayotte.

This is the very beginning, almost everything remains to be done, but this international coalition of the willing to tax the super rich is a ray of hope — the embryo of a new multilateralism focused on tax, climate, and trade justice

[Gary Stevenson @garyseconomics]

If you don't raise taxes on the very rich,

Then they will raise taxes on you.

“All workers who are beholden to their employers... face serious risks. This behaviour… extends to construction, retail, and services.”
Climate, legal dependency, and low-wage work collide for migrant workers — the engine of Saudi Arabia’s economy.

Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (#GHF) : a deadly trap.

+450 Palestinians have been killed and more than 3500 injured while trying to access food since May 27

Many Latin Americans in transit hit by new US migration policies are heading south. But the cost of the journey north has left people with few resources to return, forcing riskier travel. 3 routes from Panama to Colombia - many avoid the Darien after traumatic northbound journey.

[Mixed Migration Centre @Mixed_Migration]

In Latin America, abrupt changes in U.S. migration policy have left migrants in transit stranded, without options for regular entry, exposed to fear. Many are heading south with few options, few resources and little help.  Their journeys are shaped by pressure & uncertainty 1/2

"After careful analysis, it appears the design of the plan presented by Israel to the humanitarian community will increase ongoing suffering." - @UNICEF

"We have more than 3,000 trucks of aid stuck outside Gaza." - @UNRWA

"We have not seen any aid diversion." - @WHO

"Even when the economic realities suggest increased migration is a significant opportunity, if not a necessity, the scapegoating argument requiring reduced migration normally wins." @AyhanKaya14 on anti-migration narratives & right-wing populism https://t.co/UTM9erlcA8 #MMR2024

“This is not a humanitarian failure — it is a political choice, and a deliberate assault on a people’s ability to survive, carried out with impunity.”

An expanding military offensive and aid blockade by Israeli forces has turned Gaza into a “mass grave”:
