Yesterday judges in the Upper Immigration and Asylum Tribunal rejected an appeal from the Home Secretary, Theresa May, that Roseline Akhalu, a 49-year old former postgraduate student from Leeds should be returned to Nigeria where she would have faced the prospect of death ‘within weeks’. On hearing news of the judgment Roseline Akhalu told her friends and supporters: “Thank you everybody for the support, for the prayers, for the publicity, for everything. Hopefully the UKBA will let matters rest at this stage.”

Parliamentary committee claims that International Passenger Surveys provide poor statistics.
http://www.migrantsrights.org.uk/news/2013/parliamentary-committee-claims-international-passenger-surveys-provide-poor-statistics
According to the Committee report, these surveys are surrounded by a margin of error. It explains that the 95% ‘confidence interval’ around the estimate of net migration translates into an error margin of plus or minus 35,000. The report says “This means there is a 95% chance that the true value of net migration in any twelve month period falls within a range of around 70,000, and a 5% chance that it falls outside this range.

The Greens and immigration.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk-news/2013/jul/26/green-party-immigration
Green party policy is emphatically on the side of a fair and humane migration policy. Our policy recognises that current governmental policy would rather generate inflammatory headlines than treat migrants fairly. We oppose current policy that separates families, drives away international students and that deports vulnerable asylum seekers back to places of danger. Migration is an easy scapegoat for when government is failing in its duties; we as Greens reject that mentality.
