It is a complete failure of safeguarding and a moral humiliation for our city. This is an appalling derogation of statutory duty to protect. This shows a deep cynicism and symbolic and actual violence toward the unprotected, traumatised, and young. The government continues to perpetrate racist and religious stereotyping of asylum seekers that only seeks to further stigmatise the most vulnerable. The children are housed in hotels that utterly fail to meet their needs, placing vulnerable children in such hotels is an act of neglect which is so serious as to be considered state-sanctioned abuse. ![]() Peter Kyle MP and Caroline Lucas MP have sought to mobilise state action to stop these abductions, and yet the state has sat on its hands and refused to do anything meaningful at all. ![]() All local services have been made aware of this problem for over a year now, and yet they have failed to take emergency or even adequate action to safeguard these children. No civilised country can afford to fail to protect such large numbers of children from organised trafficking and abuse. Statement from Brighton Exiled/Refugee Trauma Serviceīrighton Exiled/Refugee Trauma Service absolutely condemns the failure of the various statutory organisations, including collectively the UK Home Office, Police, and Brighton & Hove City Council, Social Services and the NHS, to protect the children who are housed in the asylum hotel who have been abducted.
