Show Notes
Remember the 'Go Home' vans? That 2013 Home Office campaign was a visible example of the UK government's 'Hostile Environment': a toxic combination of cruel rhetoric & restrictive law/policy.
Through Free Movement, barrister and blogger Colin Yeo has been keeping lawyers and civil society up-to-date on immigration law developments since 2007.
He tells us about that work & his mixed feelings on strategic litigation on asylum issues.
