Help Stand Up To Racism fight for Zero Covid
Donation protected
Stand Up To Racism is campaigning for public inquiry into disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on BAME communities, a range of measures to reduce the spread and the adoption of a ‘Zero Covid strategy’ to prevent future waves of the virus on the scale we are currently seeing.
The government’s catastrophic handling of the coronavirus, by failing to take timely measures to eliminate the virus, continues to disproportionately impact Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities.
Recent figures show 38.3 percent of Covid patients admitted to intensive care in the second wave have been from BAME backgrounds despite making up around 15 per cent of the total population.
We have put together a statement that’s has been signed by MPs and peers from 3 parties including MPs Diane Abbott, Kate Osamor, Dawn Butler, Chris Stephens (SNP), Liz Saville-Roberts (Plaid Cymru), Labour Peer Peter Hain, trade union General Secretaries including Unite the Union’s Len McCluskey, representatives of campaign groups including Stand Up To Racism, Muslim Engagement & Development (MEND), Jewish Socialists Group, We Own It, as well as faith and community representatives.
