Walking Tour: Migration and the City of London
Where better to discover the richness of Britain’s migration histories, than the City of London - where hundreds of stories, over thousands of years demonstrate that migration is woven into the fabric...
Looking for summer activities in London and keen to learn more about its history through migration? The Migration Museum Walking Tour: Migration and the City of London can be booked for up to 20 people. Duration approx 90 mins. And you'll be helping the team build Britain's missing museum too. 1/2

Roman Abramovich may owe UK £1bn in unpaid tax
Leaked documents suggest oligarch's billions were managed from UK, undermining offshore tax avoidance plan
Abramovich’s companies were registered offshore but we’ve uncovered evidence they were being run from the UK – meaning they should have been paying UK taxes

“Witnessing the German public sphere in recent months, it was hard to resist a similarly damning conclusion: that self-righteous hypocrisy had been normalised enough to turn into a mode of governance and thought. …“ www.theguardian.com/news/2025/ja...

Bundestagswahl - Trumpismus made in Germany - medico international
Die Migrationspolitik wird zum Einfallstor eines autoritären Staatsumbaus.
Merz ist auf den Spuren von Orban und Meloni. Er gefährdet Europa, rüttelt an den Grundfesten von Rechtsstaatlichkeit und Demokratie, er wirft zentrale Lehren des Nationalsozialismus' über Bord. 1/3 www.medico.de/blog/trumpis...

This photo shows the room where someone seeking asylum has been housed. The bed is just a thin, blue mattress on the floor. The only privacy is provided by a collapsable screen and a sheet. The words "So nobody is forced to live like this" has been written onto the photo in Refugee Action branded font.
A group of cross-party MPs has launched an inquiry into the state of asylum housing – and we are submitting a mountain of evidence for it.
Will you take action and sign your name to show the government that we’ll be counting on them to act on it?
