- Our friend, Ibrahima Bah, is having his case considered for appeal on 4th December. Join us and @freeibrahimabah.bsky.social to demand justice
- We continue to advocate for the release of those imprisoned and for the end of the criminalisation of movement Ibrahima, for example, was sentenced this February to 9.5 years imprisonment after the dinghy he was steering broke apart. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024...
- We resist the racist practice of criminalising freedom of movement and to support those who are impacted. We write to, send money to and visit people who have been imprisoned for small boat crossings. linktr.ee/captainsuppo...
- In June 2022, the UK government introduced the new offence of 'illegal arrival'. for use against people arriving to seek safety and a better life Since then, it has charged and imprisoned over 450 people for crossing the Channel in 'small boats' We stand against this injustice
