Want to know part of the reason we can’t control our borders?

Charitable foundations in Britain. 🧵

1) Paul Hamlyn Foundation (£1.4m from British taxpayers 2020-23).

Here’s what it’s funded:

“No Pride in Deportation” Image
2) “migrant-led social sessions” Image
3) “Nurturing and Developing Migrant Leaders from the Grassroots” Image
4) Migrant Action Image
5) Refugee Legal Support Image
6) Work Rights Centre Image
7) Has also given hundreds of thousands to the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants, which blocked deportations to Rwanda: Image
Image
8) It believes in open borders and has a Migration Fund for organisations that promote this vision: charlottecgill.co.uk/p/paul-hamlyn-…Image
9) HOPE not hate has won it three times - and had a total of £585k from the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. Here are all the other pro open border bodies it’s funded: Image
10) Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. Thankfully no taxpayer funding. But last year it gave out £3.4 million in migrant justice grants: esmeefairbairn.org.uk/our-aims/faire…Image
11) These include £180,000 last month to Migrants Organise and plenty of other migrant charities this year (as well as going back 2023 onwards). Image
12) Migrants Organise

“Towards unrestricted core costs to build capacity of migrant and refugee organisers to build alliances, effectively participate in decision-making on issues affecting their lives and challenge negative narratives” Image
13) Here’s Migrants Organise… organising.

How is this not a massive national security issue? “These Walls Must Fall”! Image
Image
Image
On and on it goes.

We have masses of foundations like this. And no one notices.

Part of why I suggest don’t protest is because we’d make more headway digging up this stuff and sharing it far and wide.
If anyone wants to see for themselves, go onto this website and type in key words eg “asylum”: threesixtygiving.org

My own suspicion is Carol Vorderman has been moved because she’s drawing too much attention to the fact that there may be a network of left wing shills - who aren’t as spontaneous as being presented - that Global (which owns LBC) realises is too obvious dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/arti…
This is Josh Russell who coordinates The Movement Forward (at Vorderman’s book launch) Image

1) Green New Deal Rising 🧵- thread about the campaign group that protested Rachel Reeves this week: Image
2) The group's address is "144 Cambridge Heath Rd, E1 5QJ" Image
3) It's not the only left-wing campaign group linked to that address.

"We Deserve Better" is another - which has given funding to both Carla Denyer (pic 1) and Jeremy Corbyn (pics 2 and 3):
