阿富汗女性的刺绣作品。“2021年抵达英国酒店的阿富汗妇女和女孩中,有相当一部分曾遭受暴力。” 摄影:萨米乌拉·波帕尔/EPA工党对阿富汗妇女和女孩提供的援助太少,也太迟了内政大臣使用“同情心”和“国际义务”的措辞,与该党在保护弱势移民方面的记录相悖,埃莉诺·拉克斯顿撰文指出关于您的文章(《英国将为阿富汗妇女和巴勒斯坦人开辟新的难民安置渠道》,9月27日),我们是否应该对沙巴娜·马胡德使用“同情心”和“国际义务”这类措辞感到愤怒,而不是去关注她的政策转变是否会阻止小船偷渡者抵达(显然不会)?
Embroidery by Afghan women. ‘A significant proportion of Afghan women and girls who arrived in British hotels in 2021 have experienced violence.’Labour offers too little, too late for Afghan women and girls The home secretary’s language of ‘compassion’ and ‘international obligations’ is at odds with the party’s record in protecting vulnerable migrants, writes Eleanor Luxton Regarding your article ( UK to open new refugee resettlement routes for Afghan women and Palestinians, 27 September ), rather than focusing on whether or not Shabana Mahmood’s policy change will deter small boat arrivals (which it won’t), shouldn’t we be in uproar over her use of the language of “compassion” and “international obligations”?
考虑到埃德·米利班德在工党大会上承认该党在支持巴勒斯坦人民方面做得不够——以及阿富汗公民安置计划(ACRS)在2025年7月1日几乎未提前通知的情况下突然关闭,且再次发生在工党执政期间——这难道不是典型的“太少,太迟”吗?
Considering Ed Miliband’s admission at the Labour conference that the party has not done enough to support the Palestinian people – and the abrupt closure of the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme with almost no notice on 1 July 2025, again under Labour leadership – is this not a case of too little, too late?
我和其他研究者对居住在所谓“难民酒店”中的阿富汗妇女的研究,让马胡德突然对“弱势妇女和女孩”表现出的关切显得格外刺眼。2021年8月喀布尔陷落后抵达英国酒店的阿富汗妇女和女孩中,有相当一部分曾遭受暴力,被隔绝于基本支持服务之外,并被内政部驱逐,同时收到指引,要求她们在Rightmove上寻找永久住所。
Mine and others’ research with Afghan women living in so-called “refugee hotels” throws Mahmood’s sudden concern for “vulnerable women and girls” into sharp focus. A significant proportion of Afghan women and girls who arrived in British hotels after the so-called fall of Kabul in August 2021 experienced violence were isolated from essential support services and were evicted by the Home Office with guidance to seek permanent accommodation on Rightmove In a time when the far right is increasingly weaponising the discourse of “protecting vulnerable women and girls” from what they consider to be violent male migrants, Mahmood should reflect carefully on Labour’s rediscovered sense of duty towards Afghan women, and the effect on Afghan women and girls caused by the government’s own policies.
在极右翼日益将“保护弱势妇女和女孩”这一话语武器化,以对抗他们眼中具有暴力倾向的男性移民之际,马胡德应仔细反思工党重新发现的、对阿富汗妇女的责任感,以及政府自身政策给阿富汗妇女和女孩造成的影响。
The government would do well to consider the research of academics such as Louise Ryan, Caroline Oliver and their team of Afghan peer researchers who use evidence-based approaches to understanding the experiences of migrants and refugees in the UK.
政府最好能考虑路易丝·瑞安、卡罗琳·奥利弗及其阿富汗同行研究员团队的研究,他们采用循证方法,深入了解英国移民和难民的经历。伦敦
