Shout out to the Lords for refusing to back the Safety of Rwanda Bill. This piece of political theatre will not stop desperate people fleeing persecution. What it will do is generate enormous profits from their suffering for Serco Group, Mears Group & Clearspring.

Bail granted for our client, a transgender woman detained under immigration powers in a male prison.

Judge’s decision was in line with medical evidence and took under 15 mins.

She is excited to access gender-affirming provisions that were inaccessible to her while detained.

Hey @airtanker, this you?

If your commitment to human rights still stands ... why are you ignoring over 20,000 of us?

Let AirTanker know it's too costly to profit from refugees pain 👇

Hey AirTanker, long time no see.

2 years ago you told us you wouldn’t fly refugees to Rwanda on behalf of the UK government ... now you're not answering our calls.

So we're turning up the heat.
Tell AirTanker: Don't profit from refugees' pain 👇
