Whilst today we blockade the Home Office to demand an end to the #BordersBill, we are asking people to donate to one of three orgs providing practical solidarity.
#ClimateJustice = #MigrantJustice
You can give to @MOREGlasgow, as they fight for legal protection for those affected by climate migration

You can give to the @no_evictions winter solidarity appeal. 👇
Asylum seekers must survive on £37 per week for all food, clothes, toiletries, phone, internet, absolutely everything! The money here will go towards supporting 70 migrant families and individuals this winter
#ClimateJustice = #MigrantJustice

Give to this urgent fundraiser from @Care4Calais as they fight the disgraceful and deadly pushback policy on the channel.
#ClimateJustice = #MigrantJustice

There are, of course, many other incredibly important projects you can donate to.
If you do one thing today, and you have the means, please donate to a migrant support project. For one day, we're blocking the Home Office in Glasgow, but these groups do the really important work and they need your support.
#ClimateJustice = #MigrantJustice

Extinction Rebellion Scotland & @Ggow_COP has blocked @ukhomeoffice in Glasgow to demand the UK Government & @pritipatel end their hostile environment policy towards migrants. Here’s why. 1/9
The #NationalityandBordersBill must be stopped. It's beyond cruel to criminalise people seeking asylum. It's state-sanctioned murder to grant immunity to border force staff if refugees die after being pushed back into French waters. 2/9
Parliament's own human rights committee has ruled that @ukhomeoffice's #BordersBill is incompatible with international law and would endanger more refugee lives at sea. It's incompatible with British decency. 3/9

The Murdoch-owned press are responsible for downplaying the catastrophic Australian bushfires in January, and promoting the fossil fuel industry in the US.

We are all seeing statements circling around like; “Coronavirus is dropping emissions”, “Mother Earth is cleansing” and “Humans are the virus”, in the mainstream media and in climate activist circles.

1/n
We need to dig into what these ideas actually mean - and be clear that any claim that a global pandemic and loss of thousands of human lives is a *good* thing for the climate is far more dangerous than the virus itself.

We are living through a very scary, uncertain time, where the most vulnerable people are being exposed to huge risks and potential death.
