We’re here at the Grand Burstin Hotel in Folkestone, all ready for Skabour ! 😎 On stage at 8:30pm tonight - see you there! #TheSpecialsLTD #Ska #TributeBand #2Tone #TheSpecials #Skabour #Festival #Folkestone

Lovely story of how a Spanish town mobilised to offer a warm welcome to refugees. “None of us are ever free from having to pick up a suitcase and leave and hopefully we would have someone there to help us too.” theguardian.com/world/2024/sep…

This is so grim. How many more people have to die? We need safe routes. It's immoral to pretend otherwise.

🚨 We are extremely concerned by the potential plans to offshore people seeking safety in the UK. The Government is ‘interested’ in learning about Italy’s scheme to send people seeking asylum to Albania to process their claims. 1/🧵 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

This is utterly nauseating. We don't need cosy chats with crypto-fascists, we need brave & moral leadership that has the guts to put in place measures like safe routes. This is just more performative politics; it doesn't solve anything, and it's cowardly. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Another one of the 'charity begins at home' squad who doesn't understand that you can actually look after army veterans AND those seeking refuge. It's not either/or. Stop falling into the trap of pitting groups against each other. It's a trap.

If you are going to be in or near Liverpool this Sunday 22 September please come to this meeting. It's open to all. Please share.

Reported for hateful trope. Can I request other people report too. Please don't respond to them, just report. Ta.

Wow, so according to Twitter/X this tweet doesn't violate their rules on hateful conduct. Just wow.

🚨 In or near Liverpool this Sunday? Want to talk about how we rebuild a movement for migrants' rights? Come to this meeting at the Botanist bar in Liverpool One from 6pm. All welcome. You don't need to be a conference delegate or a member of the Labour Party. Please share.

People that regularly use 'reply all' for emails when there is no need should be given community service of some kind.

Good morning this man. A nurse who begs the #bbcqt panel to see migrants as human. Like all of us he just wants migration managed well, not to see migrants dehumanised. With Farage’s speech coming up today we could all do with remembering THIS is the majority view. #r4today

🚨 The Labour for Free Movement motion for Labour conference calling for more humane immigration policy has been blocked by conference arrangements committee. If you are/near Liverpool this Sunday come to the protest and/or the fringe meeting to discuss way forward ⬇️ labourlist.org/2024/09/labour…

Listening to Nels Abbey on R4's Antisocial right now discussing the 'coconuts' trial.

I will be speaking at this protest at 1pm on Sunday in Liverpool so if you’re heading to the Labour Party Conference please come and say hello. I’ll be speaking of a vision for a kinder more compassionate future for refugees. We can rise from the ashes of this last government

These events are happening tomorrow ⬇️⬇️⬇️

If you're in or near Liverpool tomorrow please come to one or both of these events.

Two important events tomorrow to coincide with Labour Party conference. Please make sure those who might be able to attend are aware.
