On 18 September, the Morning Star published an article about a planned day of action in support of migrants and refugees. The article covered a number of issues relating to migration policy, including the restarting of in-person immigration reporting and a recent report that criticised the Home Office approach to migration issues.
On the issue of immigration reporting, Migrant Voice Director Nazek Ramadan said: “In-person reporting is an unnecessary and gruelling process even in normal times.
“The last few months have given people a welcome respite from the terror of being detained and deported — and that the Home Office are now restarting this, despite rising Covid infections, suggests that looking tough on immigration is more important to them than keeping people safe.”
