U.K (EKO) : Rounded up for RWANDA !

 

The UK government is rounding up asylum seekers to send to  Rwanda under its brutal deportations scheme – the latest in a  repressive crackdown on migrants’ rights across the world. People fleeing war, natural disasters, persecution… now being  treated like animals in the place they sought sanctuary. But there are also heroic humans fighting to protect them. And we  can help. The volunteer-run group Care4Calais is working round the clock to  mount an emergency response – staffing 24-hour helplines and  finding immediate legal support for anyone detained. But the  workload is surging and they’re tiny in number. That’s where we  come in. If everyone reading this chips in the cost of a coffee, we can  help them scale up fast, hiring new case-workers to help defend  the human rights of every single person seized under this horrific  plan. These heroes have stopped Rwanda flights before – they can do it  again now. But they need to act fast. Can you chip in to give hope  in the darkness ?

It’s unfathomably cruel. UN experts have warned that this sadistic  plan will set a dangerous global precedent – which is why we have  to fight this with all we've got. From the UK to Greece, refugees are  being victimized by far-right, racist policies that are costing lives. But the world is made from more than right-wing politicians. And  good people across the UK are coming together right now to  stand up to the savagery – to protest, blockade and resist Rwanda  flights and to use legal expertise to fight for a more humane world Dear friend, this is a chance to help power that fight, by rushing  money to those in the front line to ramp up their capacity to provide  vital legal and emotional support. If they can block Rwanda deportations, it won’t just save lives  right now : it will send a crucial message to the UK – and  governments everywhere – that we won’t sit back and let them treat  refugees like dirt. Are you in ?
