Today is the 25th anniversary of the Tampa Incident, cynically used by then PM John Lying Rodent Howard to stir racism to demonise asylum seekers by conflating them with terrorism and win an election he was about to lose. #australia #ausgov #piracy #asylumseekers #refugees #offshoregulag #cruelty https://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-07-07/former-sas-commander-breaks-silence-on-tampa/2785164?pfmredir=sm

The MV Tampa 25 years on and we still treat asylum seekers worse than convicted criminals. Just one reason why I will always call John Winston Howard a lying rodent and the Labor party gutless.

"The government may have thought it was addressing the far-right’s fixation on migrants and sexual violence by producing its guide to consent. Instead, it has ended up reinforcing that link"

Can you help the #counterprotest against fascist agitators gathering outside a hotel holding asylum seekers in #gloucester on Sat 22 August 11am to 2pm?
Head of #UKIP who expresses racist, sexist views and is calling for mass deportation, is likely to be there, so we need as many present as possible.

This is probably not the only case. This man was caught. Horrifying and predictable if you know Serco. Their contract should be cancelled and their services taken in house.

Many workers in the UK will have had to sit through very dry #GDPR data handling training courses.
I really hope this case of a #Serco employee circulating the details of #AsylumSeekers addresses in #Thetford leading to three nights of mob violence becomes a case study that gets a lot of attention.

"On 26 July, the day before #TPS holders lost their work permits, CBS News reported that #ICE was targeting Springfield for a ‘potential arrest and #deportation blitz’.
"Now the blitz has arrived – by post. Over the past two weeks, scores of #HaitianImmigrants have received ‘call-in’ letters summoning them to ICE offices near Cincinnati, more than an hour’s drive away."

Doesn't sound like the liberal bastion that has been #SanFrancisco's reputation for years.
What happened #SF?
This is just #fascism!
#Immigrants are treated like criminals.
People have a right to immigrate, and #asylumseekers in particular have a right by #internationallaw ( that thing that never gets enforced) to choose ANY country they want and that country MUST
allow them in the country. -
"A senior judge has accused the Home Office of relying on “AI hallucinated” information to refuse an asylum claim.
The case relates to a Moroccan woman and her child who fled her country after experiencing forced underage marriage and extreme violence, including rape. The woman claimed asylum on the basis of fears that she would be killed by her husband: a powerful, previously convicted criminal.
The Home Office refused her case, citing evidence from a supposedly independent and authoritative document known as a country policy information note (CPIN), which they said confirmed that Morocco would be safe for her.
But the document could not be found, although its existence was relied upon by a judge who rejected her appeal against the Home Office’s refusal decision in an immigration court known as the first-tier tribunal."
