You couldn’t make it up…
On the same day a poor man in Belfast was near-decapitated, with a Sudanese man charged with attempted murder, the taxpayer-funded City of Sanctuary Sheffield is advertising a “Far Right Resistance Workshop”.
Taking place on June 20, you can “Hear from people with lived experience of the UK border regime and discuss organising for migrant justice.”
The event is being put together by SADACCA (Sheffield and District African Caribbean Community Association), which lists Sheffield City Council, South Yorkshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner and The Parole Board as partners.
City of Sanctuary Sheffield is an an offshoot of City of Sanctuary UK. The former received £574,680 in taxpayer funding between 2021-25, mostly through grants from Sheffield City Council and is in my audit below (accounting for £663,116,359 in taxpayer funding):
Another event promoted by the charity (taking place today) is titled “Solidarity with Sudan Film”, an “evening of film, discussion, Sudanese food and music, featuring human rights activists, humanitarian organisations, and people with lived experience of migration from Sudan.”
Great timing.
