Plans to deem India and Georgia ‘safe’ countries to send people seeking asylum in the UK to are being fiercely criticised by migration organisations.  Late last year, the government announced its intention to update the ‘safe states’ list in the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 in order “to speed up the process of returning people who have travelled from either country illegally.” Suella Braverman, who was Home Secretary at the time, said this was part of delivering on the highly controversial Illegal Migration Act, which makes it possible for…

admin, , , ,

The Prime Minister is standing by the transphobic rhetoric made at the Conservative Party conference, whilst a new Home Office statistical bulletin shows a concerning rise in transphobic hate.
