We at JustRight Scotland stand in solidarity with everyone affected by the deeply disturbing events across central Scotland last night, and fully support the statement issued by the @scotrefugeecouncil.bsky.social 🧵
Our Chief Executive, Sabir Zazai, has issued a statement in response to violent and intimidating anti-migrant protests which have taken place across Scotland. Read the full statement: https://scottishrefugeecouncil.org.uk/response-to-far-right-violence/

Caring about children’s rights means caring about every child 🧡 New rules could put thousands of migrant and refugee children in the UK at risk of poverty, homelessness and trauma. 📣 Our Legal Director says: “What goal is punishing children achieving… How does that achieve integration?”
The Government wants to cut child poverty & educational inequality. But at the same time it's baking poverty and trauma for children into its migration policy. We're proud to join children's charities, social workers & lawyers in saying: every child's rights matter. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...
