In Durham Students’ Union’s most recent Assembly, a motion to support the Lift the Ban coalition, which was proposed by Durham Student Action for Refugees, passed overwhelmingly. Lift the Ban is a coalition comprising of over 240 different charities, unions, and think tanks to protest and put pressure on the government to lift the current ban on asylum seekers being able to work. The motion seeks to support the coalition and actively engage in and encourage governmental change.
Today, people seeking refugee status are banned from being able to work in the United Kingdom, instead given just £5.66 to live on per day. According to the ONS, in 2019 the average household in the UK spent £61.90 on food shopping per week, whereas asylum seekers are only given £39.62. Moreover, this isn’t even taking into account travel, clothing, household goods, and other essentials needed for living.

On Sunday, 378 migrants crossed the Channel on 12 boats and the French are understood to have stopped 178 people in five interceptions.
Home Secretary Priti Patel has pledged to make Channel crossings unviable .
New legislation being considered by MPs would make it a crime to knowingly arrive in the UK without permission.
The government hopes the overhaul of asylum rules will deter migrants making the crossing.
