"We believe a person’s need for protection and therefore their ability to claim asylum should be judged on the dangers they have faced and not on how they enter this country." [2/5]
"Alongside the recent announcement to remove people to Rwanda on a one-way ticket, there are ever increasing barriers to refugees receiving protection in the UK." [3/5]
"We have heard directly from many people seeking asylum of the distress and anxiety the proposals in this Bill has provoked." [4/5]
"Our goal is now to support men, women and children seeking asylum as best we can, working with them to mitigate the worst aspects of this new law, as well as continuing to advocate for a fairer, better funded and more humane asylum system." [5/5]
