💬 "you are too friendly and smiley and polite"
Was just one comment made by the company running the Bibby Stockholm barge to staff.
Yet earlier this week, the Home Office gave Corporate Travel Management (CTM) an even bigger stake in the asylum industrial complex. 🧵

Many European governments (Germany, UK, Sweden, Netherlands etc) move to hunt and suppress the [Eritrean] opposition group, Brigade N’Hamedu, under a tawdry cloak of deterring disorder. 1/6

If Brigade N’Hamedu were Russian opposition movements in Europe, we’d be seeing a flurry of solidarity speeches and support, not a concocted terrorismizability of a just fight against injustice.

A war on Brigade N’Hamedu is a war on our diasporic struggle for justice. 6/6

Statement from @nrc_norway @NRC_Egeland
Sudan’s conflict has triggered the largest displacement crisis in the world with 11 mil uprooted within the country, & 3 mil outside it. An estimated 24 mil are in acute need of food, incl 1.5 mil "on the edge of famine."

For the admirers of Isaias' 'Eritrea is not for sale', here he is, signing Eritrea's status as Egypt's vassal state in the HoA. Quite a turn from exchanging rings with Abiy to El-Sisi's errand boy.

Labour government [UK] appoints ex-police chief as new Border Security Commander while the PM heads to Italy to 'learn lessons' from a neo-fascist leader. It's more border right-winging, securitisation, militarisation & dehumanisation.
