Appalling and entirely preventable – at London, England
Utterly heartbreaking to see so many EU citizens denied the right to vote- despite the fact that most were registered to vote in local elections a few weeks ago.
I raised this precise issue with the Govt back in April.
They refused to act.

congrats to asylum aid (now known as consonant) @MigrantsMRC on being shortlisted for charity award campaign
Some great ideas from @IntegrationAPPG @TheChallenge_UK for #HealingDivides and promoting integration. Bringing people together of all ages and backgrounds - migrants and members of long-settled British communities - is key to a stronger society drive.google.com/file/d/1E_J…
