There should be no hierarchy to human suffering. But asylum or humanitarian policies are created as if there is. Safe routes should be available to all nationalities, not just the select few like Ukrainians. buff.ly/idJiM6D

If net migration at 700-900k is unsustainable, but is already sbout *half that level now* (year to Dec 2024, figures in May 2025) are further tight changes needed?

Finland is cited here as an example of an EU country using "coercive migration diplomacy" and "negative conditionality in cross-sectoral approach".
Fair enough as the government just cancelled its development aid programme for Somalia (including support for improving the health of girls and women).

Very proud of the students of our masters' course on Migration Governance (@mpc-eui.bsky.social), who have identified 14 important migration policies globally.
Next up, they will write about the drivers or effects of these policies for their term paper.

“First You Write a Sentence” by Joe Moran is one of the best books I’ve read on writing in quite some time. Joe encourages patience and attention to detail, and the book itself shows off its author’s commitment to craft.

For those in public health (and beyond) interested in #trust in government.
Our paper on trust and trusworthiness is out, where we test a model of competence, benevolence, and integrity in 5 countries. We find these are generally consistent across people and countries, with benevolence being most important in determining trust judgements.

"Move on" policies after asylum applications are granted lead to refugees being made homeless. No-one should be forced into homelessness, especially as a direct effect of government policies. As the weather gets colder people are at more risk of freezing.
