Helen Bamber Foundation and Asylum Aid statement on the ‘Illegal’ Migration Bill
This Government, through the ‘Illegal' Migration Bill, seeks to strip those fleeing war, persecution and human rights abuses of their right to seek safety in this country. It seeks to destroy long held principles of fairness in our justice system – that of access to the courts and equality before the law. The Helen Bamber Foundation and Asylum Aid will resist the passing and implementation of this Bill with all the means at our disposal.
