MORE than 200 leading charities have signed a pledge to continue the fight against the Tories’ “anti-refugee laws” after peers finally voted through the reforms. 

A Westminster stand-off over the Nationality and Borders Bill came to an end on Wednesday night after the legislation was passed by MPs and peers. 

The widely condemned legislation was passed just hours before Parliament’s end of session deadline, with the final result met with shouts of “shame” across the House. 
 
Now set to pass into law, the Borders Bill will legalise asylum offshoring and the creation of mass reception centres in Britain, while further criminalising asylum-seekers and creating a two-tier asylum system.
