Arsenal fans sing “feed the Scousers” and Everton put Fans Supporting Foodbanks’ logo on the screen straight away. Quality from Everton. Absolutely embarrassing from the Arsenal fans singing it. Solidarity with @SFoodbanks. Hunger doesn’t wear club colours 💙❤️

Greece's migration minister is planning to deregister NGOs that litigate against government decisions, e.g. going to court against asylum rejections or detention orders. That would practically prohibit NGOs receiving public funds from providing legal aid to asylum seekers.

Greece should seriously invest in the development of heavy-lift firefighting drones that could also operate at night. Meanwhile, solidarity with our underpaid, overworked firefighters who are out there saving homes and lives. #φωτια

Police unions shared evidence of how Greece's government implements its suspension of the right to asylum in Crete. Migrants spent 35 hours in a ship area without ventilation with temperatures exceeding 43°C. Things got so bad, a door was opened mid-voyage to let some air in.

Greece's development minister said the "firm will of our Government is that you can only enter Greece legally, as is the case in all serious countries" Greek governments often pretend their laws bring us in line with Europe – when in fact they are taking us further away from it.

The real question is what happens on day 91. Egypt represents 16.4% of asylum applications with only 1.8% recognition rates. A functioning bilateral agreement expanding legal labor pathways would do more than this amendment to prevent boats. (4/5)

Yesterday, Greece’s Prime Minister announced a 90-day suspension of asylum rights for anyone arriving by boat from North Africa. With 9,500 crossings to Crete this year alone, the government calls it responding to an “invasion.” A few thoughts: (1/5)

Turns out that the PM got it wrong, they are suspending the right of arrivals from North Africa to apply for asylum altogether. The law also provides for returns to the country of departure or origin without registration. Not sure how they imagine that could work.

Greece's PM Mitsotakis announced a freeze on asylum claims from those arriving from Africa by boat for 90 days. New arrivals will be detained. His gov't suspended the right to apply for asylum in 2020, drawing EU criticism. Now, they are only suspending the processing of claims.

Greece's new migration minister told a tabloid there will be 'no more asylum for Muslims from Syria.' The government has said it plans to imprison failed asylum seekers until they return home. A grim prospect for thousands of Syrians waiting for a decision in Greece's camps.

There are other examples of pro sides that play in one country and represent another in international competition (Liechtenstein's teams in the Swiss leagues, as well as Welsh teams in the English pyramid until 1995). Maybe a NZ Championship or Cup involving A-League sides? (2/2)

I love seeing Auckland City play at the #FIFACWC, watching amateurs pierce this star-studded world and even making life difficult for a top side like Benfica. But why not allow NZ's pro sides to compete in and represent OFC? After all, they can't compete for AFC trophies. (1/2)

Just a year and a half ago, the word 'remigration' was so toxic even the AfD had to distance itself from it. While it is tempting to think "eh, its just returns like they used to be, just rebranded", this word does reflect a promise of less diverse societies.

🚨In a move likely intended to cause public outrage, Sec. Rubio is proposing eliminating the refugee and migration division at the State Department and replacing it with an "Office of Remigration" — a term closely associated with the European far right and ethnic cleansing.
