BBC were there yesterday to get an example of someone who had used the Northern Irish route to claim asylum in Ireland. We could not be more disappointed with this journalism including a complete lack of ethics, safeguarding and pursuing only the 'example'.

You don't want to see tents on our streets?

I have an easy answer for you.

Provide safe indoor accommodation for everybody on the streets.

As we’ve long suspected, gov have bullied & hustled a ‘volunteer’ to go to Rwanda in return for £3K which will doubtless be used to fund a remigration. And we continue to churn humans in a grubby game of ‘anywhere but here’s. Despicable.

And awful headline from LBC.

Let's be clear.
The people the UK is planning to deport to Rwanda are NOT 'unsuccessful asylum seekers' or 'illegal immigrants.'
They come from countries like Afghanistan, Eritrea & Syria, & if they were allowed to claim asylum, would in most cases be granted it.

Minister Helen McEntee TD emboldened the far-right & Britain w/ her inflammatory falsehood.

'80% asylum claim based on presentations, not data. Just because a person has not applied for protection at an airport / port it doesn't mean the person crossed from NI.'

We still need to know why the Irish Government ignored comms from British MPs about how Rwanda contravenes the the Good Friday Agreement and Article 2 of the Windsor Framework. The litany of negligence here has left people in the North stripped of rights.

The 1951 Refugee Convention is not Sunak's to destroy.

'Open the borders, like the 1951 Refugee Convention requires that we do. Open the borders, as the moral, ethical, and loving requirement we must uphold to envision a caring, safe & thriving society.'

US far-right have a vested interest in destabilising Ireland by sowing racial division. Alex Jones leading a racist attack on an NI Mayor is proof on top of the proliferation of terminology & funding that Ireland must act or have its democracy subverted by a billionaire bigot.

This is a resignation matter. Without an explicit apology for misunderstanding data and making a harmful, spurious claim on the back of it, it means complete misinformation was released deliberately by Fine Gael’s Helen McEntee to the delight of far-right on both islands.

Posturing from Irish Gov who got the data wrong & are doubling down to save face after gifting Sunak a blunder.

'Gardaí to be redeployed to NI border.'

Know your rights on cross-border travel, we won't let Gardai engage in racial profiling..

Even the UN are aware of Gardai racial profiling. The Common Travel Area has served this island since 1922, we won't let a crumbling Government cover their blunders with CTA racial profiling.

Say NO to the invisible racist hard border on this island. Gardai deployed to the ‘border’ on our shared island to engage in discriminatory and racist ID checking as people try to get on with their lives is a desperate move from Minister McEntee to cover her recent data blunder.

This year, Gordon Lyons MLA and Grainia Long have received complaints from more than 40 families at our housing clinics facing eviction, displacement, intimidation, and more.

People don’t have to live like this, we can build safe homes on available land👇

On Saturday night, this was painted 5 minutes walk from my house.

I will not be intimidated.

I will continue to oppose those who try to divide ordinary people and spread hate.

We need to unite against those who are actually responsible for housing, health and climate crises.

Even knowing only a small proportion will be sent to Rwanda, the rest have been left in limbo in circumstances that are driving utter despair.

New from The Civil Fleet shows how deadly the asylum accommodation limbo really is with 40 deaths last year #r4today thecivilfleet.wordpress.com/2024/04/30/at-…

The government’s asylum policies read like a slaver’s charter.

We are directly fuelling misery, destitution & exploitation in our communities by threatening asylum seekers with forced removal to Rwanda.

What would you do? Of course they’re dropping out of the system. #r4today
