Thousands of people risk their lives crossing the Mediterranean in search of safety. Saving lives at sea is not a choice — it is a humanitarian and legal duty.

For #RefugeeWeek2026, join us for a screening of The Sea Between Us.

Men, women, and children, after enduring desperate journeys as exiles, are left to fend for themselves.

🎥This is the outcome of more than thirty years of Franco‑British migration agreements.

[MSF International @MSF]

Seeking safety is not a crime.

[Leah Kenny @liggyk]

New Government rules deny refugees citizenship based not on who they are, but by how they first arrived in the country.

This denies many a stable future as full members of the community.

Will you ask your MP to reverse the ban? https://t.co/EI9FinlWXR

[W]ork to dismantle and restructure the Home Office will be insufficient without turning around the narrative of hatred and racism that defines our current political moment.

Yes! 👏@carla_denyer

IF you have an miscarriage, new police guidance from @PoliceChiefs instructs officers on how to search your phone for tracking apps and your home for abortion pills.

The police is ramping up, not down.

🚨Boycott Coca Cola and all its brands

Coca Cola operates in illegal Israeli settlements on stolen Palestinian land. Keep Coca-Cola and its brands such as Schweppes, Sprite, Innocent, Smart Water and Costa Coffee, out of your basket until it ends complicity in Israel's crimes.

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

On International Workers’ Day, we remember: nothing was given, every right was won by workers who dared to fight.

Solidarity to all rising for justice today, especially those on strike.

To the workers of Palestine: we stand with you in your struggle for dignity & liberation 🇵🇸

The health of people in immigration removal centres is often poor.

Caring for migrants in immigration removal centres can present GPs with complex practical and ethical difficulties, @WanderingSal reports

1/ On this World TB Day, we have written an open-letter to the UK government urging them to remain committed to the global fight against #TB, and to reverse the devastating cuts to UK aid.

Stop selling arms to Israel then, and start imposing sanctions.

🚨Napier Barracks to close. Now just Wethersfield - close all the asylum camps! #CommunitiesNotCamps https://t.co/QdzxwYfkEM

[Asylum Matters @AsylumMatters]

❗Breaking news ❗

Holding three survivors of trafficking, torture and violence at RAF Wethersfield was unlawful and breached the equality act, court finds.

It couldn't be clearer: Wethersfield must close, now.

UK overseas assistance has just been slashed by 40%. Millions of lives and livelihoods are at now at stake.

Write to your MP and Prime Minister Keir Starmer to tell them: we must not sit by while others suffer. Reverse the cuts today. https://t.co/I3jkpc2cbt

New report from Prisons Inspector on UK Short Term holding facilities in Northern France makes for shocking reading on the treatment of people held at border facilities, especially the appalling treatment of children.

[APPG on Refugees @APPGRefugees]

Thank you to @stellacreasy for raising the recent ban on refugees arriving by small boat being granted citizenship at Home Office Oral Questions today. As highlighted, these people have had their cases for asylum accepted and should be supported to integrate into British society.

[Labour for Free Movement @labfreemvmt]

🚨 BREAKING | More than a thousand Labour MPs and activists have signed the statement. "Anti-migrant politics will not build a single house, staff a single hospital or raise anyone’s wages."

We're proud to have coordinated it, alongside @PeoplesMomentum.

👀 Watch this space.

[Ben Cowles @Cowlesz]

This latest episode is one I'd recommend if you've never listened to The Civil Fleet Podcast before.

Thoroughly enjoyed talking with Michaël, despite the depressing topics.

Everything is fucked, but it's good to know there are good people out there trying to right the wrongs.

[Enver Solomon 🧡 @EnverSol]

Our ⁦@refugeecouncil⁩ report published today looks at the shocking number of deaths in the channel last year and calls on Govt to expand safe routes for refugees.
