Efforts are underway to ensure that any donations received and assets acquired make their way to organisations who are working to provide active solidarity with those making the dangerous channel crossing and those campaigning for safe passage.

It is with deep regret that we announce the closure of Channel Rescue as an organisation. This is due to unresolvable circumstances beyond our control. We’d like to thank everyone who supported, contributed and volunteered with us.

Ports in Liverpool and Edinburgh refused to allow cruise ships meant to house asylum-seekers to dock - and so the ships have had to return to the company that owns them.

We have no more tears We are dry The lifeless bodies The stolen lives They add to Europe's responsibility This place we inhabit and which repulses us Though the lives lost do not add up They only explode 1/4

After a year of digging, we @LInvestigates can reveal how an understaffed Dover coastguard failed to send help to reports of small boats in trouble at sea in Nov 2021. This culminated in the worst Channel disaster in decades, when 27 people died. theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/a…

"People move and have always moved. Migration is part of human existence. It enriches our communities and society, and it will be a key part of the solution to the climate crisis." Safe, accessible routes now! independent.co.uk/voices/climate…

This is wrong & Suella knows it 1️⃣ Apart from a tiny number of schemes, there's NO OFFICIAL ROUTES to reach safety in the UK 2️⃣ To claim asylum in the UK, you HAVE to be on UK soil 3️⃣ The ONLY WAY for most people to get sanctuary in the UK is to risk their lives in the Channel

"There is no good reason for anybody to get into a small boat to cross the Channel in search of a new life in the UK." @SuellaBraverman is asked what will happen if people fleeing the war in Sudan attempt to cross the Channel. More: trib.al/VpD6pLO 📺 Sky 501

There are no UN agencies present in northern France. No IOM. No major aid organisation. The French state provides nothing - not even drinking water. With no processing centre in Calais, Dunkirk or anywhere nearby there is no choice but to cross in a small boat, as she well knows.

There's no safe route to the UK for refugees from Sudan. Those already here can wait years for an asylum decision. The #RefugeeBanBill will lock up and deport anyone arriving from Sudan. We need to: Scrap the #AntiRefugeeLaws Improve decision making Open safe routes NOW!

This Government is scrambling to get British diplomats in Sudan to safety. Yet at the same time, it’s still pushing through its inhumane Migration Bill, which would criminalise people fleeing Sudan for travelling in the only way they can – by small boat.
