PRESS RELEASE: Experts call for political parties to pledge to better protect refugee victims of sexual and gender-based violence in 2024 manifestos

British political parties must promise to better protect victims of forced migration and sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in their 2024 general election manifestos.

A coalition of organisations and experts working with these vulnerable groups have sent letters to the Conservative, Labour, Liberal Democrats, Green, Scottish National Party and Plaid Cymru parties, to raise concerns about the impact the Illegal Migration Bill will have on victims of SGBV seeking refuge in the UK and calling for parties to commit to protecting survivors in their manifestos.
