Our response to the new Government

9/7/2024

 
We welcome the new government and will be in touch with our Hertfordshire MPs in the coming weeks.

We stand with the refugee groups who have written to Keir Starmer with a blueprint for an overhaul to the asylum system:
​www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jul/08/human-rights-groups-give-starmer-blueprint-for-asylum-overhaul

In particular we welcome the Refugee Council's report Asylum: Day One challenges for the next government and the UNHCR Recommendations to the New Government.

Here's hoping for a more humane, workable system for the asylum seekers and refugees we support and welcome.
