I raise a glass to all my fellow migrants

I raise a glass to your courage, your resilience and your tenderness.

Some of us had the privilege to follow a dream, an aspiration.

Some of us have escaped nightmares. Fled war and natural disasters.

I raise a glass to all your different motivations to relocate, to your stories and dreams

My mind meanders back to my motherland and my mother sea.
And To the endless tragedy of the Mediterranean Sea

So far, since the beginning of this year, at least 1,340 people have lost their life in the Mediterranean Sea.

Read it again: 1,340 people in the last year!!!

This is the worst figure since 2017, accordingly to François Thomas, President of SOS Mediterranné France.

Climate refugees are only going to increase. And in this country, in the UK, we have just lost the freedom of pacific protests.
