[ As of Monday 5th August, “Go home or face arrest” number 78070 is still working! Text them HOME and join the action!]
The Home Office launched a one-week exercise last week, where vans displaying large adverts encourage migrants to leave the UK. They were circulating in 6 London boroughs. In their latest xenophobic move “Go home or face arrest” was the message:

Even if the vans are no longer moving around London, leaflets and posters with the same violent threat have been and continue to be spread in targeted shops and cafes.
The Home Office continue to decide where people’s homes are: abroad, in jail/detention centre, out of sight. No matter how long a person has been living in the UK, no matter how strong their community and family ties may be.
A phone campaign: take action this week!
Text HOME to 78070, the Home Office can call you back and help you find a home!
Tell the Home Office where you want to live and if you would like
to see racist vans in it.
