Urgent: refugees are being "dispersed" from Brighton on monday
We call on Brighton & Hove councillors to take urgent action to help our refugee neighbours being “dispersed” out of Brighton.
Almost all the remaining residents of the Brighton & Hove asylum hotel have now received letters from the Home Office stating they will be moved on Monday 16 November. But they have not been told where they are going.
The residents have a very simple request: can the Home Office at least give them five days notice of where they are being sent to, so they can make an informed decision.
Please send this email to your local councillors, and council leader Bella Sankey, asking they take action.
You can send the template email just as it is by clicking the button: or even better if you want to change the subject line, personalise the email, or send your own!
The politicians will get your details so can answer you directly. Please do forward us any responses you get to info@brightonsaysyes.info. If you'd like to contact your councillor directly yourself, you can find all their info here, including phone numbers, surgery details, etc: https://democracy.brighton-hove.gov.uk/mgmemberindex.aspx?bcr=1
How it works:
The email you write will be sent to your ward councillors and MP, copying in council leader Bella Sankey.
The automatic system identifies your local councillors from your post code.
The politicians will see your details, so they can respond to you directly.
Your personal data will not be shared with anyone else and will only be used for the purposes of the Brighton Community Plan campaign.
