Anger and division cause tensions in our communities, dividing us and tearing the social fabric of our society. It harms us all.
We have signed this open letter with over 100 other organisations calling on the new Home Secretary to unite communities to improve everyone’s lives.
“Anger and division will never satisfy voters in the long term. They cause tensions in our communities, dividing us and tearing the social fabric of our society. As the new home secretary, you now have an opportunity to turn the tide, and to end the scapegoating of migrants and performative policies that only cause harm. The government runs the risk of this country accelerating along a dangerous path, and now is the time to urgently correct this and change course.”
