As headlines today are dominated by the Tories AND Labour calling for more deportations & a more hostile environment
a reminder of the headlines that show our power is in mutual aid, community organising & direct action
Though this Gov is relentless, so will be our resistance

Political leaders must stand up to #racism. Senior politicians making Islamophobic comments and the failure of parties to deal with #Islamophobia is a scandal. How can we unite against Islamophobia and empower Muslims in progressive spaces?➡️library.fes.de/pdf-files/bue…

To those who say "Islam is a religion not a race, you can't be racist to Muslims" hate to break it to you but 'race' isn't what you think it is. Race is a set of shifting, socially constructed meanings written onto our bodies, structuring who accesses power vs who is oppressed.

Fortunately, a member of the public saw them, and came to tell the residents their rights - not to let them in!
Here’s what happened:

⚠️ We need your help.
This government wants to change the law so that #LGBTQ people who come here fleeing persecution in India or Georgia can be sent back to their countries without proper consideration of their asylum claims. (1/2) ⬇️
