Scrapping Indefinite Leave to Remain or making it harder to get - like the Government has just announced - will devastate our NHS.
It punishes people who’ve already been part of our communities for years.

Scrap the Surcharge! ❌
Borders in our health service take many forms:
▪️ The charging regulations, which see people charged up to 150% of the cost of secondary care
▪️ Identity checks
▪️ Data sharing between the NHS + Home Office

Borders aren't natural, they're weapons built on racial capitalism and imperial violence. As states push deadly policies, we choose resistance through radical love and mutual aid. Our liberation is collective! ❤️
