🚨2day is a dark day in the UK

The Gov's cruel, costly & unlawful Rwanda Bill passed

Rishi Sunak has shamefully thrown the rule of law, int'l obligations & ppls lives under a bus, all to score political points

New from Emilie McDonnell & I Human Rights Watch ⬇️

Defying the facts, the UK parliament has passed a law declaring Rwanda 'safe' so it can send asylum seekers there.

This law violates asylum seekers' human rights.

The Australian government should withdraw a proposed law that would allow the authorities to seek prison terms for asylum seekers for exercising their right not to be sent to a country where they fear being persecuted. @annabelhennessy @HRW Daniela Gavshon

“By shifting responsibility for refugees, reducing the UK’s courts’ ability to scrutinise removal decisions,...& limiting the scope of...human rights protections..., this new legislation seriously hinders the rule of law in the UK & sets a perilous precedent globally,” said Türk.

#UK : Airlines should not facilitate unlawful removals of asylum-seekers to Rwanda 🇷🇼, UN experts say. Such actions might make these companies complicit in violating internationally protected #HumanRights and court orders.

“Qatar, #Bangladesh & #Nepal [should] go beyond exchanging diplomatic pleasantries...and seize this moment to publicly commit to concrete, enforceable protections that address the serious abuses that migrant workers in #Qatar ...face.' Michael Page Human Rights Watch

@TMattiacelHRW said US policies revolved around the idea of making migration as painful as possible, but ultimately were not that effective. 'People who R fleeing 4 their lives, who R fleeing violence & extortion & gangs & failed states R very determined.'

“Migrants could help build a future for places that, today, don’t seem to have one.”

Sensible observations and recommendations from the Wash Post editorial board. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/…

Double standards have a human cost. 'The state department believes us on everything else–they cite us in their annual human rights reports. But when we submit evidence on Israel, they say we haven’t seen any violations of international law.' Sarah H Yager

No, Donald Trump, migrants aren’t ‘killing’ Social Security and Medicare.

In short: “Undocumented immigrants improve the health of Social Security and Medicare by paying payroll taxes without receiving benefits.” washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/…

Another reminder that we need real, humane and effective solutions to strengthen the asylum system and address border challenges, NOT more bans, bars & cruelty that turns people seeking protection away to danger. humanrightsfirst.org/wp-content/upl…

It was an honor to work with Sheppie Abramowitz, a tireless and passionate advocate for refugees. May her memory be a blessing. wapo.st/49HyI8j

.Marc Miller ᐅᑭᒫᐃᐧᐅᓃᐸᐄᐧᐤᐃᔨᐣ describing immigration detainees as 'high-risk' is scaremongering & false, most are held on flight risk. That they have 'severe mental health problems' is ableist & cruel: detention harms mental health.

This is a shameful change in policy. cbc.ca/news/canada/ot…

#Jordan is on the verge of deporting a Syrian student who has lived half his life in Jordan w/out charging him for a crime or presenting him before a judicial body and merely for attempting to document a rally in solidarity with Gaza. Adam Coogle @HRW hrw.org/news/2024/04/1…
