Like the #BorderSecurityBill, the Gov's new approach (Prevent, Pursue, Protect, Prepare) embeds “counter-terror” powers into #migration policy. That’s why we’ve wasted no time in calling out this cruelty for what it is + launching a petition!

Hostile & dehumanising rhetoric about migrants and refugees fuels racism and division in our communities. It lays the foundation for violence, like we saw last summer.
We urgently need a wholesale shift in how we speak about migrants and refugees in the UK.
