#FightTheAntiRefugeeLaws - Resume Syrian asylum claims now!

Fight the Anti-Refugee Laws

Following the joint public letterto the Home Secretary opposing the suspension of Syrian asylum claims - the fight is still on to get this decision overturned.

The letter received lots of media coverage - appearing in The Independent, The Guardian, The Evening Standard and Northern Echo to name a few.

It was signed by over 730 organisations and individuals on the frontline of providing support to people seeking asylum in our communities across the UK, urging the Home Office to reconsider the decision to suspend all Syrian asylum claims following the fall of the Assad regime.

Now we need to ramp up the pressure on the Home Secretary from within parliament, so with a few clicks, use this easy tool to write to your MP with two simple asks:

  1. Commit to urging the Home Secretary to resume the processing of asylum claims

  2. Commit to meeting with you as their constituent in January / the New Year

If your MP agrees to meet with you in the New Year, let us know by emailing info@asylummatters.org and we can equip you with a briefing and some top tips on ‘elevator pitching’ to your MP to get the most out of the meeting.

Keep the pressure up on social media too by sharing the letter on your socials with the hashtag #FightTheAntiRefugeeLaws - you could even tag Yvette Cooper.

And finally, if you haven’t already signed the Fight the Anti-Refugee Laws pledge, you can do so here.
