Understanding, resisting and building alternatives to territorial and internal borders that divide us and reduce our lives.
The UK asylum and immigration system is disabling. People are restricted from meeting essential needs. The result is to further disable people with existing impairments as well as to create new impairments in the asylum system.

Because they forced us onto unit credit, they then pay us our rent, child tax credits, transitional protection etc, it’s classed as ‘extra income’ which makes us liable to pay HALF of the council tax. It’s wrong as so many people leave it thinking it’ll be sorted out and then they take us to court which costs more with court costs and THEY STILL HAVENT TOLD ANY OF US, that we are liable to pay them. Them and their loopholes
This looks really interested and needed, I however am so worried about the right wing rhetoric coming from other disabled people , we have to look after our own first
I am not one of those….when governments divide the working people , scapegoats are found…..where is our compassion
