We at DPG wish to reaffirm our fundamental commitment to those seeking sanctuary in the UK.

We are horrified by the demonising and divisive rhetoric which is increasingly being used in mainstream political discourse, and which has fuelled an increase in racist violence across this and other countries. We reject the spread of dangerous misinformation about those seeking asylum, including unfounded claims that people seeking asylum have a greater propensity to commit criminal offences.

At DPG, we believe strongly in our shared humanity and that people seeking asylum, like all of us, should be treated with dignity and respect. We continue to work towards making that a reality.
