CJEU, asylum law
Dublin system of allocating asylum-seekers can be disapplied where the asylum-seekers would face 'extreme material poverty' in the Member State which would usually be responsible for their application: curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/do…
CJEU, border controls
Limits on detention of irregular migrants in EU Returns Directive still apply where a Member State reimposed controls on borders with other Member States by applying an exception to Schengen rules: curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/do…

Hannan - who previously claimed that Sinn Fein and the DUP negotiated the Good Friday Agreement and formed every NI executive since - also here claiming that Fianna Fail won every Irish election since the 1930s. The Telegraph published both these falsehoods.
The statue of Oliver Cromwell outside Parliament commemorates the Nobel peace prize which Cromwell won for ending the Irish Civil war #HannanIrishHistory
Same sex marriages were introduced in Ireland in 1382, after the 15th referendum on the issue (all forced by the EU), with the campaign led by de Valera and Sinead O'Connor, who were job-sharing as Pope #HannanIrishHistory

Here's the full text of the government's letter to Barnier on a ring-fenced treaty on the rights of @the3million and @BritishInEurope post-Brexit (h/t @adamfleming) 1/3
2/3 As others have said, the letter should be copied in to the Council and European Council, since they would need to change the Commission's negotiating mandate and maybe the guidelines. However, the Commission can ask the Council to amend its negotiating mandate.
3/3 Here's my detailed comments on the idea of a ring fenced agreement on citizens rights from last year - with a proposed text: eulawanalysis.blogspot.com/2018/03/ending…

Top Myths About #Asylum and why you should care:

Myth: Asylum seekers should file at US consulates in their home countries.

Reality: Asylum can only be sought at the border or inside the US. US consulates do not accept asylum applications.
Myth: Asylum seekers must present themselves at a port of entry.

Reality: The law (8 USC 1158) specifically says a person may apply for asylum whether they enter legally or not.

They can be technically prosecuted for unlawful entry, but that doesn't prevent asylum.
Myth: Asylum is only for political persecution, not for fear of gangs and terrorists.

Reality: There is NO requirement in the law that an asylum seeker's fear be politically based.

I've won many gang and terrorist related cases.

"The Government’s place is not to be assisting people who think they can’t make it on their own, it’s an absolute last emergency order” --> the words of UN Special Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty & Human Rights @Alston_UNSR should shame Britain & need to be publicised. My THREAD:
Professor Philip Alston said that 14 million people are in poverty in the UK (a figure the Government disputes) and that child poverty rates are “staggering” and are predicted to go up significantly over the next couple of years. #poverty #humanrights #austerity
The UN Special Rapporteur said he saw “a lot of misery” during his trip to the UK & met “a lot of people who feel the system is really there just to punish them”. People who could have gotten help in "yesterday's Britain" can no longer count on it #poverty #humanrights #austerity

UN special rapporteur Philip Alston giving press conference now after his time investigating #poverty in the UK: on benefits there is 'a sense that we should make the system as unwelcoming as possible'.
.@Alston_UNSR on impact of Brexit on UK #poverty, says 'those on the lower income levels are really going to suffer' - calls for much more attention to be paid to this.
.@Alston_UNSR on the risks of paying #universalcredit to only one partner in a household: 'the impact on many women is extremely problematic: it puts them at risk of domestic violence'

#Law #DomesticViolence
Indian law protects women from all kinds of domestic abuse. To know more about the provisions of Protection of Women Against Domestic Violence Act, 2005 read our explainer: bit.ly/2CMVlfS
PWDV Act, 2005, gives a broad definition of what qualifies as ‘domestic abuse’. It includes physical, sexual, verbal, emotional and economic abuse. Section 3 reads:
The Act provides for a ‘Protection Officer’ to help you through various processes under the law. This Officer can help you file the complaint, tell you about your rights, make an application to the Magistrate for you, etc.

As a fmr immigration attorney let me be unambiguously clear. Crossing a boarder to claim asylum is *not* a crime; no under US or international law. Any child separated from a parent under that pretext is done so in direct contravention to the laws of the USA. ⚖ THREAD Pls RT.
If you came to the US without permission to apply for asylum, youmetjod of entry, whether legal or illegal *should* in no way effect your application process. Illegal entry is not a ground of inadmissibility for asylum applicants.
Unlike many other categories of applicants for immigration benefits, ppl seeking asylum in the US are not barred by having made an illegal entry; for example, sneaked across the U.S. border or overstaying a valid visa (one of the top ways people are in the country illegall).
