So sorry to share such awful news.
Another child’s life cut short by the brutality of our closed borders. How many will be too many? Will it ever be enough? #r4today

Imagine the journey this 16-year-old had to take all the way from Sudan. You can’t.
Imagine how vulnerable he was at every closed border. How many bad people had complete control over him. What he must have seen and experienced.
All that for the life we take for granted. #r4today

By the time he reached Calais how can you possibly imagine that our last closed border could ever have stopped him?
The only thing in the whole world he probably had left would be his hope to get to the UK.
Our borders will kill as long as we pretend not to see this #r4today

It’s so heartbreaking to know that he probably believed if he could just cross this last border he would be safe, looked after, given the opportunity to live peacefully
People take these awful risks because they believe that. And we try again & again to prove them wrong #r4today

He is only one of the uncounted thousands who die simply because they were on the wrong side of our border
And anyone can get famous, maybe even make it as an MP saying he should have gone somewhere, anywhere else. Burry our head in the sand & say we’re not to blame. But we are.

The one thing I absolutely promise you. Priti Patel’s Anti Refugee Bill will do absolutely nothing at all to end this.
And no MP in parliament believes anything different. They are deliberately allowing this to continue to save their job instead of saving lives. #r4today

And we hear from the French coast guard on #r4today about how they are doing everything in their power to stop the boats.
Yes, so effectively that a 16-year-old boy tried to get on a truck instead and was killed that way this morning. Great job.

It doesn’t work.
They know exactly what they are doing bylinetimes.com/2021/09/28/hom…
