Media: Poverty used mothers in custody cases, meetings told

A report of our event was published in Camden New Journal. One of our sisters spoke about how mothers fighting for family reunion with children they were forced to leave behind have to battle against the obstacles set by a hostile Home Office in order to win.

She said: “Children should have the right to join their mother or father even if they turned 18 before their parents’ asylum claim was settled. This is so unfair… the Home Office is a telling us as mothers we have no rights over our children. That children don’t need their mothers. They are taking our rights away. We say NO to this. This campaign gives us the eagerness to fight on.”
