I've just signed this petition against the performative cruelty being proposed by our UK government. Taking away the jewellery of asylym seekers is a cruel and demeaning act intended to appeal to the racists who regard them as lesser human beings.

Petition: Taking refugees’ jewellery: stop the cruelty

I’ve just signed to support this campaign – join me

@dave also signed - thanks for sharing
@dave should non-english citizens sign it or just share it
@Stellar I don't see any reason not to. I'm outraged at most things the US government are currently doing, and I regularly sign petitions (not that they care).

@dave

Taking wedding rings and family heirlooms, isn't that what Nazi Germany did to Jewish people?

@tiggy @dave presumably this is why they are suddenly, after the fact, very prickly about not taking those specific things.

i'm not sure that's much movement, to be honest.

@dave
Signed and boosted.

@dave It's what the Nazis did. They're copying the Nazis and hoping to keep the Non-Nazi voters...

@dave Jesus, why not just pull their gold-filled teeth out of their heads, and confiscate their glasses and prosthetic limbs while you're at it... hell, I hear human hair is in demand. *facepalm*
@dave signed and boosted - pure nazi behaviour 😡
@dave Taking away, as in confiscating? Edit, oh they really want to repeat history.
@dave Damn. That is not just racist. That is criminal.

@dave

Everyone in the UK please sign this.

And if you're not in the UK, wtite to UK politicians telling this is just not on

@dave Given the precident, that's horrifying.
@dave "taking away" aka stealing.
@dave dear labour: don't try to out cruel Nazis. They will never be satisfied and it will only increase the speed of the general sliding into fascism thing that is going on. Protect labourers by tacking excessive wealth in stead of by attacking even poorer ppl.
