As details emerge of #ParkInn with a police officer critically injured & 5 others still in hospital -the true picture is of dehumanising & humiliation of vulnerable, frightened asylum seekers housed in hotels during #COVID19 by Mears given a £1 Billion contract in 2019-thread👇🏽
During a media briefing organised by Mears on Thursday, its chief operating officer said a “blanket decision” was made in late March to move people into hotels, & no assessments were carried out of individual needs before people were transferred independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
Mears with its £1 Billion contract from Home Office to manage asylum housing admitted to MPs it failed 2carry out assessments b4 placing trafficking victims, pregnant women & children in accommodation that put them at risk – then backtracked on the statement hrs later.
Late last night there were reports that traumatised residents of the Hotel were still sitting on the streets b4 alternative accommodation was sorted & then were allegedly forced to sign new contracts without interpreters
They are dehumanised, they have no money because hotels give them 3 meals a day & were rapidly crammed into hotels with little social distancing during #COVID19 & a mental health and medical crisis spiralling out of control
Desperate & vulnerable asylum seekers in the midst of a global pandemic, despite the hatred & bile they face, deserve our compassion & humanity in a city #Glasgow which was built by immigrants
Some were desperate for this 2b a terrorist attack- but in the firing line were real human beings with dreams, hopes & fears, long after the tweets, placards & demos are gone they will still be fighting for the right to live with dignity, no human being is illegal❤️#ParkInnHotel
For those who think racism doesn’t exist, read the timelines of any of those demanding dignity, respect & the right to life & it is full of sickening abuse, bile & racial hatred whatever the issue, whether it be #BlackLivesMatter #Statues or #Refugees 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
