[ALT Text: Supreme court rejects Rishi Sunak’s plan to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda

Judges uphold appeal court ruling over risk to deported refugees and deals blow to PM’s ‘stop the boats’ strategy]

how many times does this policy have to be blocked on account of it abusing human rights laws before the tories finally fucking drop it? [x]

okay, context. one of my politics teachers is really against us having opinions in our assignments because we're supposed to be impartial in exams. he made the mistake of giving us an assignment where we had to "express the feelings of the youth" on the incumbent government, in whatever way we saw fit. naturally, I turned to tumblr.

submitted on the 13th December so there's very little partygate/recent stuff, and also a lot of the popular posts were quite old. excellent posts by: @michaelgovehateblog @therestlessforest @just-wobert @angrynorthernerr @imangryatthetories @two-sugars-pls @politedemon @ellesgreenaway @northern-punk-lad and @petalsandpurity. sorry about inflicting your posts on my politics teacher. close ups under the cut.

The Home Office has admitted it has no evidence to back one of the key justifications for its crackdown on small boat crossings.

As home secretary in 2021, Priti Patel told parliament that “70% of individuals on small boats are single men who are effectively economic migrants”. In December last year, with the number of boat arrivals continuing to increase, her successor, Suella Braverman, backed the assertion, saying to MPs: “There is considerable evidence that people are coming here as economic migrants, illegally.”

Human rights groups say such claims help create a false narrative that individuals arriving by boat are not genuine asylum seekers so are less deserving of sympathy.

However, when asked via a Freedom of Information request for evidence to support Patel’s claim, the Home Office admitted it had none. Its response – dated 20 March 2023, a year after the request was sent – states: “We have carried out a thorough search and we have established that the Home Office does not hold the information requested.” But the former home secretary’s statement appears not to have been corrected.

[...]

The Home Office’s own data confirms that most of the people who reached the UK by small boat in 2022 – at least six in 10 – would be recognised as refugees. Despite this, the British government has closed or severely restricted most safe routes to the UK, leaving people with no choice but to risk the Channel crossing.

Conservatives will always, always unashamedly lie to get what they want.

“Priti Patel is trying to override the will of the people by introducing a new bill that would force through things like Serious Disruption Prevention Orders (basically ASBOs for potential protestors) and crack down on people planning to lock-on - something which is critical to direct action and protest. They also want to widen the net of stop and search, further harming overpoliced communities and people of colour. “

“In almost a quarter of cases (23%) an appropriate adult was not present during the search, despite this being a requirement under statutory guidance … the data showed that of children aged 10 to 17 who were strip-searched between 2018 and 2020, almost three out of five (58%) were black, as described by the officer. For 2018 alone the figure rose to 75%. In Greater London, 19% of 10- to 17-year-olds are black.”
