Together with others in their community, Omisha's family are speaking out for justice.
Already, they have got @BHRUT_NHS to put the debt on hold!✊🏼 Now they need your help to cancel Omisha's debt, stop the NHS using debt collectors & end migrant charging

No to the #AntiRefugeeBill
➡️ Deterrence doesn't work
➡️Offshoring is extremely expensive and inhumane
➡️ Removing rights to asylum & blocking routes to settlement actively creates a population susceptible to #forcedlabour
✔️Respect refugee rights

W tym kilkuminutowym dokumencie opowiadamy o tym, czym jest i jak powstała @GrupaGranica oraz o tym, dlaczego nasza pomoc na pograniczu jest wciąż potrzebna. Film został nagrany z okazji przyznania Grupie Granica nagrody im. Williama D. Zabela przez @humanrights1st. 1/2

'People in Central and Eastern #Europe still have memories of living under #Soviet influence & fear their borders might be under threat again.
