Afghans in U.K. are here legally under the government’s protective scheme. They were evacuated to the U.K through operation pitting. Keep the facts straight. #checkyournarrative
GB News carrying a locals protesting illegals story. When evidence of far right bussed in, locals forming a protective cordon & those in hotel are Afghans here under ARAP & ACRS scheme. Please correct this narrative @SuellaBraverman @RobertJenrick @TomTugendhat @JohnnyMercerUK.

Thank you to @AbbasZeineddin for pointing out our spelling error of @NazilaJamshidi1. It shouldn't have happened and was a human error on our side, not good enough. Reannouncing our second lineup of key speakers! @TahirihDanesh | @NazilaJamshidi1 | @robiolle | @FatimaGailani

An important call for #AfghanCeasefire by the Afghan people. A responsible, grassroots and necessary call to complement those made by many countries and organisations. It deserves full support. #Afghanistan #EU #civilsociety

2/2 The new generation in Afghanistan is more connected, creative and courageous in their approach solving problems, however they are facing many challenges. We must too be as connected in a network to advocate and engage with charities that will succeed in achieving their goals.
