Lord Alf Dubs, who came to Britain on the #Kindertransport, has said the government is “pulling up the drawbridge” by suspending family reunion visas.

Restricting #FamilyReunion undermines dignity & forces people into dange. We must defend #SafeRoutes that keep families together.

The findings from an inquiry underline a devastating truth: lives were lost in the Channel that should have been protected. Honouring those who died means acting now, by expanding #SafeRoutes so no one is forced into dangerous journeys to seek safety.

Safe routes save lives. From the #Kindertransport to today, history shows that when protection is closed off, harm follows.

#AtrocityPrevention must start before people are forced into danger.

LGBTQI+ people are not safe in immigration detention. The safeguards are failing, and queer lives are being put at risk. It’s time for the government to act.

Share this post if you agree there is #NoPrideInDetention

People fleeing persecution should never have to choose between danger & despair. Compassion, safe routes & protection are not contradictions; they are the only humane way forward.

We stand for a fair & compassionate asylum system that leaves no one behind.

Human dignity isn’t abstract. It’s found in everyday rights, a safe home, fair treatment, family life, and the freedom to belong.

At René Cassin, we work to ensure these rights are protected in practice, not just promised on paper.
