MV signs letter published in Independent

On 29 October 2019, a letter was published in the Independent calling for new safe, legal routes for people fleeing poverty and war and seeking a better life in the UK. Nazek Ramadan, Director of Migrant Voice, was among the signatories.

"The government’s “hostile environment”, including the lack of safe legal routes for people to apply for asylum to Britain, means that every day people seeking safety undertake highly dangerous journeys," the letter says. "Without legal routes to claim asylum, smugglers and traffickers will keep exploiting these vulnerable people and avoidable deaths will continue."
