Friday, 1 May 2026 — Migrants Organise
| Britain’s immigration system is not broken; it is functioning exactly as intended, by blaming migrants for the political choices of those in power.
As communities across Britain—and migrants in particular—face hardship as a consequence of the government’s investment in brutal border policies, it’s private companies like Serco, linked to US ICE, who benefit. Serco rakes in millions to deliver a for-profit immigration system evidenced to harm—from 24/7 GPS tagging described as “torture,” to hazardous asylum accommodation, to prison-like immigration detention of people including survivors of human trafficking. What if those resources were put into our communities, not corporations? |

| Tell the government: build communities, not detention centres! |
| From London to Merseyside to Middlesbrough, our movement is organising and calling for alternatives: community-based case management instead of digital surveillance and detention. Local sponsorship schemes instead of barracks and hotels. William, the solutions already exist—but the political will needs to match it. |
| Last week, groups campaigning on issues ranging from climate justice to detention to modern slavery took action at Serco’s Annual General Meeting. Inside the AGM, organisers confronted Serco’s Board and shareholders with testimonies and questions from our neighbours and friends who have survived Serco’s squalid asylum accommodation and punitive immigration detention centres.
And after the AGM, Migrants Organise joined other movement groups for a special screening of the film No Release, exposing the human impact of the GPS tagging Serco profits from. |
