Wow! Researchfish to close down in 2027. This will please many people, but what will replace it? Will it end up better or worse for researchers?

I need to get in and do this for my international friends and colleagues. The migration system is stressful, cruel and expensive as it is.
The UK government is proposing radical and punitive changes to settlement rules. This is settlement, not citizenship. The consultation is open until 12 February; please respond to it and oppose these evil proposals. Amnesty have a good guide: www.amnesty.org.uk/resources/gu...
Guidance for responding to 'A Fairer Pathway to Settlement' consultation
We are Amnesty International UK. We are ordinary people from across the world standing up for humanity and human rights.

With the video of ICE murdering Alex Pretti circulating, and constant updates that don't actually provide any information, it's useful to remember: Look But Don't Stare
Being informed and aware is important. Being traumatised by footage of a murder isn't. It is okay to not absorb everything.

If the Palestine Action hunger strikers die - which they could do at any moment, as they are now very close to the end - it will be the government that killed them. Today’s column explains why. Please share, and write urgently to your MP.
