#LiftTheBan. The right to work for people seeking asylum is common sense: email your MP

1 people have emailed their MP so far

Banning people seeking asylum from working makes no sense.

Lifting the ban would:

Save the Treasury £180.8 million per year
Mean people seeking asylum aren't forced to live on £5.66 per day
Improve the mental health of people seeking asylum and lessen their vulnerability to exploitation
Allow people seeking asylum to contribute to the coronavirus response

It's no surprise that it's backed by more than 250 charities, businesses, faith groups, unions and think tanks that form the Lift the Ban Coalition (as well as 71% of the public and 67% of business leaders).

We'd challenge anyone not to back our campaign in the face of this overwhelming evidence. Will you challenge your MP?

Please don't go! If you choose no, we won't be able to contact you about our work and how you're helping people who have fled violence and persecution. Be part of the action to help them rebuild their lives in Britain. Please choose yes.
