What next for Britain’s Syrian refugees? – Politics Weekly UK

from Politics Weekly UK · host The Guardian

The UK government has announced it is suspending Syrian asylum claims, after the fall of the decades-long Assad regime. So, what will happen to the Syrians who have made the UK their home? The Guardian’s John Harris hears from one woman settled in Yorkshire. And political correspondent Kiran Stacey joins us to talk through what Rachel Reeves’s spending review reveals about Labour’s priorities. This year the Guardian and Observer’s annual charity appeal is asking for your support to help individuals whose lives have been turned upside as a result of conflict. We’re partnering with War Child and MSF to help support individuals affected by the horrors of war, providing assistance from emergency aid to psychological support. Plus, we’ve also teamed up with Parallel Histories who help schools teach children about contested conflicts. If you can, please donate now at theguardian.com/donate24.
