When Suella Braverman lays her hateful anti refugee bill in parliament today, she’ll say refugees should take legal routes, or we will wash our hands of them.
When she does, think of Yosra, a 52 female Afghan judge, refused safe travel to the UK. #r4today independent.co.uk/news/world/mid…

If Yosra, like many other brave Afghans escaping the Taliban, made her way to the UK on her own, this government says it will do “whatever it takes” to restrict her access to human rights defences, that they’ll detain her, remove her - to anywhere - & ban her from the UK #r4today
Moving from danger to safety is a natural thing to do. Seeking the best possible chance at safety & a bright future for your kids is reasonable & totally inevitable.
Crossing borders is what you or I would do to. It can’t be stopped. It can be facilitated, not punished. #r4today

Did I just hear Tim Loughton saying “this legislation sends the message to refugees: find another way to come to the UK”?
This Tim Loughton? The one who called out Suella Braverman on a complete lack of alternative routes for a Syrian refugee? #r4today

The intention of this new anti refugee bill, is not as they pretend to redirect refugees into safer modes of travel.
It is to send the message to people like Yosra that we will do no more to defend her human rights than Afghanistan, so she’s be better off giving up. #r4today
