We had such a wonderful session with Saturn class. We are filled with hope and gratitude that the next generation are growing up to be compassionate citizens and will build a welcoming community for new arrivals.

[Henry Maynard @HenryMaynardE17]

This morning, @stories_supper - a charity that brings local people together with refugees and asylum seekers to share stories - came in to tell Saturn class about their work. They gave us some books for our library & the children wrote their own poems!

We celebrated #WorldRefugeeDay with Year 4 pupils at Stoneydown Park in #e17. We were bowled over by their knowledge. They've read lots about refugee experiences before our visit and we know they will show #compassion and welcome new arrivals. Thanks to @FdnFutureLondon

[Stories & Supper @stories_supper]

Today was our first Refugee Week school workshop at @LeytonstoneSch. Amazing, thoughtful contributions from year 8 students. It's heartening to see the next generation understand the need for #compassion. Thanks to @FdnFutureLondon for the support. #RefugeeWeek

[City of Sanctuary UK 🧡 @CityofSanctuary]

Discrimination boils down to the idea that some people matter and some people don't.

Today and everyday, we stand with refugees and all people seeking safety.

@SuellaBraverman, @RishiSunak, your cruel and harmful policies are not in our name. We call on you to act with compassion.

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

A final thought: however difficult the last few days have been, it simply doesn’t compare to having to flee your home from persecution or war to seek refuge in a land far away. It’s heartwarming to have seen the empathy towards their plight from so many of you. 3/4

[Mike Galsworthy @mikegalsworthy]

Well done ⁦@GaryLineker⁩. Keep going. You speak for so many Brits.

And when footballers speak far more sense than government, you know we need a new government. https://t.co/EYEWfPazh7

[Stories & Supper @stories_supper]

We need safe routes now @SuellaBraverman – not a cruel and inhumane asylum system. We have a responsibility to provide sanctuary for those in danger – a responsibility we signed up to after the Second World War. We are not meeting that responsibility.

[MSF UK @MSF_uk]

The UK govt's approach to migration is cruel and inhumane.

The absence of safe routes and the criminalisation of people seeking safety force more people to risk their lives at sea – with devastating effects.

RT or QT this to tell @SuellaBraverman we need safe routes now!
