Blue text box reads "We can't wait 20 years for safety: Sign the petition now" above a picture of a sign saying "the problem is not migration it is misinformation"

Twenty years in limbo means never truly knowing you're safety, never really being able to settle and become a full part of a community.

No one benefits when we lock refugees and other migrants out of belonging.

Doctors waiting on asylum decisions can work in NHS as Home Office lifts ban Rule change follows high court challenge brought by two doctors prevented from working in specialist fields

Great news that asylum seeking doctors can now work, but legal action shouldn't have been needed to force the government into this minor concession.
Asylum seekers should be allowed to work.
Lift the Ban now!

Yesterday 100s of people from across the UK came together in Parliament to meet with their MPs about the Govt.'s disastrous earned settlement plans. Together, we shared our concerns directly with 80+ MPs.

A massive thank you to everyone who joined & helped make it happen. This is just the start.
