At a very rainy BMA picket today, raising awareness of the roughly 300 Manchester nurses facing DEPORTATION because their salaries are 63 POUNDS below the new Home Office threshold. 🧵

Detention is state violence. It devastates health. It must be abolished.
The National Day of Solidarity is a vital moment for growing the movement, raising awareness and building our collective power.
But the fight for justice continues every single day. #TheseWallsMustFall

Scrap the Surcharge! ❌
Borders in our health service take many forms:
▪️ The charging regulations, which see people charged up to 150% of the cost of secondary care
▪️ Identity checks
▪️ Data sharing between the NHS + Home Office
And the Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) 🧵

Narrating Against Borders! 📚✊
Back in June, we were at the University of Manchester exploring the role of storytelling in dismantling the Hostile Environment.
Stories have been effectively harnessed by architects of hostility to entrench borders within all walks of life... 🧵

🚨 CANCEL THE CONTRACT! 🚨
This morning, we joined the demo outside the #NHSConfedExpo, calling for an immediate cancellation of Palantir’s contract.
The NHS - the UK’s greatest achievement - is pouring hundreds of millions into a company that not only facilitates genocide, but brags about it. 🧵

💬 “How have bordering practices in the NHS turned the health service into a hostile environment for migrants?”
Is a question we’re well versed in answering. So on Tuesday, we attended a workshop at the University of Manchester in which academics and experts considered this question and more. 🧵

We forged relationships, got creative, laughed and ate together, and crucially, gained an insight into a world without borders.
A world where all people can live where they want and move when they want. Where the Hostile Environment is a distant memory; long since dismantled.

And last weekend equipped us with the skills to do just that. From refining our theory of change, to practising one-to-one organising conversations, we collectively built our own power to resist.

Because before getting into strategy and tactics, we first had to remind ourselves that borders, whether in the NHS or elsewhere, are structures that punish people. And as PNP organisers, it is our duty to uproot them. To rise up and abolish them.

💬 “What does it mean to have something where the edges are not so sharp? Where the lines are more blurred and people can move freely and access healthcare?”
These were just some of the questions we pondered at the #PatientsNotPassports National Gathering last weekend. 🧵

… we will dismantle the oppressive structures embedded within our NHS, that divide access to healthcare based on immigration status.
Yesterday was a great opportunity to connect with campaigners doing the same work, but within different areas, e.g. detention and reporting.
