Meanwhile wealthy countries look the other way, postpone climate actions and restrain refugee rights.

Those who have contributed least to climate breakdown are hit first and worst by its effects. These impacts are happening now, not in some far-off hypothetical future.
All #ClimateAction should have #ClimateJustice at its heart.

Even B4 Covid, the poorest 10% of UK households paid 47.6% of their income in direct and indirect taxes, compared to 33.5% by the richest 10%.

The Tories have closed 125 A&Es [type 1-3] & handed £130 billion of NHS money to private health profiteers.
Let’s call this what it is. It’s a war against our NHS.

The Home Office has now admitted that the cost of Priti Patel's Rwanda deal is enormously high and there is no evidence at all that it will have a significant impact on Channel Crossings. This unworkable and extortionate policy is unravelling quickly.

The vile Rwanda plan is what happens when the test of a policy becomes "how will it polarise the electorate?" "how will it "play" in the polls?" & "what dividing lines will it set up for an election?" - not "how will it work?" or "what will it mean for the human beings affected?"

Priti Patel(Jan 2021): "There's a small minority who refuse to do the right thing,.,, No.10 for example.... so we'll be introducing an £800 fine for those attending house parties.. & this applies to illegal gatherings of more than 15 people"

Yes. Because they keep using the word ‘processing ‘ - as if the ‘processing’ office were ( for some bizarre reason) located in Rwanda , after which they’d get back on a plane to return to the UK, all suitably ‘processed’.
Oh no. Once in Rwanda, all refugees stay in Rwanda.

So lets me get this straight. Under this plan...
If you win your asylum case -> you stay in Rwanda.
If you lose your asylum case -> you stay in Rwanda.
And in either case, you can't come back to the UK?
It's not so much an asylum system as forced deportation to Rwanda.

I don’t think everyone has realised this. Most still thinking they just go to Rwanda for processing until a decision is made.
