Help us hold the press to account for demonising refugees

We have a unique opportunity to make a lasting difference

 

We’re sick of newspapers portraying refugees and migrants as a threat. This climate of fear poisons debate and gives politicians an excuse not to act.

MediaWatch exposes press myths with the facts that argue for positive change.  

We can make a difference – but we need your help.

We’re crowdfunding for the next three weeks to fund more stories, campaigns, research, newspaper corrections and original journalism on refugees.

Can you chip in to support our refugee project?

This is important right now when refugee policies are still being hashed out. We must keep up the pressure and not let the issue fall off the agenda.

We have a unique opportunity to make a lasting difference. Donate here to support our refugee project.

    Well if you don’t want me, my Daily Mail and our crazee policies, you’d all better think your own plans through.

    Especially given your own Stalinist tendencies. No wonder you’re champing at the bit for union strong-arming to make a comeback.
