The brassneck. She only dedicated her last years to fighting injustice because you treated her unjustly. I'm sure she had better plans for her sixties than fighting deportation from her own country.

Deeply saddened by the passing of Paulette Wilson who dedicated her last years to highlight the terrible injustices faced by the #Windrush generation. Together we must continue on her mission to right the wrongs.

Check out @LucyKatko's post on the flaws in the UK system of Country Guidance determinations in the immigration tribunals. The CG determination used for #Palestinian applicants is out-dated, which can have a catastrophic impact on applicants #HumanRights networkformigrationmatters.com/palestine-and-…

Of course Shamima Begum should be allowed back into the UK. She was a groomed child whose government left her stateless and allowed her baby, a British citizen, to die. If human rights only apply to people you like or approve of then they mean nothing.

This is a truly important development. The First-tier Tribunal has granted humanitarian protection to a family from Gaza. This could have massive ramifications for Palestinians contending with the violence of Israel's colonial occupation.

(Part 1) After nearly three years of hard work a huge congratulations to our wonderful Palestinian client and his family of nine! Granted Humanitarian Protection after First Tier Tribunal departs from HS (Palestine) and finds that conditions in Gaza are sufficiently serious....

(Part 2)... so as to engage Article 3 ECHR. The Home Office did not try to appeal the decision – no doubt fearing the new Country Guidance which this case shows is clearly long overdue. #GazaUnderAttack #homeoffice #Gaza_Under_Attack #Palestine

Breaking: bar workers at the Ivy House, London, have won union recognition, an end to zero-hours contracts, and the reinstatement of four sacked colleagues, after coming out on strike for three days straight. Pass it on to every bar worker you know - the union makes you strong.

Not only does the government lock people in immigration detention, it views this detained population as a captive labour market that it can employ at £1 an hour. Good luck to @DLPublicLaw challenging this disgusting practice. It's long overdue.

Latest Home Office stats for the quarter ended June 2018 show that 159 people (almost 2 every single day) attempted suicide in immigration detention, an increase of 22% on 1st qtr. When oh when are we going to #enddetention?

Bail refused for an Portuguese woman with permanent residence - a victim of sexual violence, on suicide watch in HMP Bronzefield, whose deport appeal was allowed in December and whose only new offence was shoplifting.

Home Office guidance instructs caseworkers to consider 'the likelihood of adverse media attention' when deciding whether or not it's right to deport a pregnant woman. Shamelessly admitting that considerations of justice include 'whether we can get away with it'.

Now Home Office caseworkers add their voice to the mounting criticism of their department's hostile (‘compliant’) environment policy. Shaw sums it up: “it would be difficult to think of circumstances more likely to lead an offender back into crime”
