The Immigration + Asylum Bill could create a conflict of interest in asylum appeals, putting torture survivors at greater risk of being sent back to danger. Use @freedomfromtorture.bsky.social's tool to ask your MP to protect access to justice secure.freedomfromtorture.org/page/202409/...

We reject this scapegoating. If the Govt. is serious about tackling VAWG it must promote an evidence-based understanding of it and invest in specialist services. All women deserve better than divisive narratives that trade on fear while doing little to address the realities of violence. 2/2

Yesterday, the Government released guidance on how people seeking asylum in the UK should behave. The Guide: ❌Reinforces anti-migrant rhetoric ❌Distorts the reality of violence against women and girls ❌Distracts from its root causes ❌Impedes access to support and justice for survivors 1/2

We're waiting to see guidance that will implement changes to Immigration Rules which, in our view, represent a substantial shift in asylum procedure & one which should have been subject to consultation & parliamentary scrutiny @freedomfromtorture.bsky.social @helenbamber.org tinyurl.com/2m6mjxj8
