The fate of six refugee families hints at a new tone on immigration

SQUADDIES USED to boast that their military bases on Cyprus, which were kept when the island won independence in 1960, were as British as Somerset. Then, in 1998, a leaky fishing boat carrying 75-odd migrants washed up on their patch. At that point, a spokesman clarified that the bases were not, in fact, entirely British. The British government refused to resettle the new arrivals, hoping that the government of Cyprus would do so. Cyprus said responsibility lay with Britain. And so the migrants were stuck in limbo on the base. But on December 3rd, some announced that they had at last won the right to settle in Britain. Somerset is theirs.

The migrants left Iraq, Syria and Africa for Lebanon, where they each paid a smuggler $2,000. They say they were making for Italy. But the engine failed and British troops towed in the boat, which one called a “floating coffin”. For most of the past 20 years, the migrants have lived in prefabricated bungalows built for squaddies in the 1950s. Their “village” is called Richmond, though it is nothing like its London namesake. Homes are riddled with asbestos and exposed wires. Over the years, children were born. Tsedale Araya gave birth to Emmanuel in 2000. She thought she would soon fly to Britain with him. At last she will, but her baby is now a man.

Although many of the migrants were granted refugee status in 2000, they were not given the right to settle in Britain. In 2014 Theresa May, then home secretary and now prime minister, also refused it. The government appealed against rulings in both the high court and the appeal court finding its decision unlawful. It argued that the UNRefugee Convention, which binds countries to house refugees, did not apply to the bases. Ministers did not want to open a back door to Britain.

The Supreme Court was due to consider the issue when the government backed down. In a letter, it offered permanent residence to six families of refugees. The letter surprised them and their lawyers. Sajid Javid, the home secretary, made the “exceptional decision” because of the “unique” circumstances of the case, says a spokesman. The reversal has encouraged proponents of immigration who think it marks a shift in tone from Mrs May’s hostile approach. Mr Javid is keen to sweep up after the Windrush fiasco, in which several Britons with Caribbean roots were unfairly evicted.

For the families, politics are irrelevant. Their bags are already packed. Emmanuel Tajeldin Bashir is watching videos of British landmarks on YouTube. He has just left high school and wants to go to university. His mother, now 44, says she hopes to train as a pharmacist, encouraged by her ambitious son. “I think I can get my dream.”

#Repost @helenachristensen ・・・ When I was in Ukraine last month documenting the harsh situation of the displaced people, I visited a hospice for elderly babushkas and dedushkas in the Kiev region. They are not eligible to be admitted to geriatric homes, as they do not fit the current criteria. The men are crammed into a basement, sharing bunk beds, many of them missing limbs from being hit by shrapnel or due to frostbite. The women live upstairs, sharing a bedroom, spending the long, lonely days telling each other stories from their past, trying to keep up hope. They are about to be evicted from this home as of April 30th. Since visiting this house in March, I haven't stopped thinking about them every single day. No one should end their life like this, alone and in pain, in a dark, smelly basement. I am also researching the possibility of at least some of the men (missing both legs) getting prosthetics. Please donate as little or as much as can to the gofundme platform set up(link in bio), helping these elderly displaced move to a new, safe home. Thank you @UNHCR for highlighting this difficult situation. @unrefugees #withrefugees @gofundme http://ift.tt/2oOIzX2

Assange has 1951 Refugee Convention status since 2012. The US's intention to extradite him is now public. The UK must recognise his legal status & guarantee non-refoulement. If not, the entire refugee regime will be undermined. @Refugees @UNrefugees @UNHCRUK this is your mandate
