The Refugee Council is calling for people who’ve waited more than six months for a decision on their asylum claim, and people who’ve been refused asylum but are unable to leave the UK through no fault of their own, to be allowed to work to support themselves.  To get involved, email campaigns@refugeecouncil.org.uk with the name of your MP, or just your postcode if you’re unsure who your MP is. We’ll tell you if your MP has signed the declaration and if they haven’t, we’ll give you all the information you need to go and see them in person to discuss the campaign. A face-to-face meeting with your MP is a powerful way of showing your support for people who’ve come to the UK to escape war, torture and persecution.
