VoiceAbility joins challenge to government’s anti-refugee bill
More than 320 groups and prominent people united ahead of the Illegal Refugee Bill’s second reading.
VoiceAbility joined charities, unions, businesses and faith leaders to call for a halt to the Bill before it was debated in Parliament on 13 March 2023.
We at VoiceAbility stand with hundreds of charities and faith leaders, and in solidarity with refugees, as signatories of this letter. We call on Rishi Sunak to scrap the calculated, callous and inhumane Illegal Refugee Bill.
The Bill will legislate for the mass detention and deportation of refugees.
