What is it like to arrive on our shores with nothing and be pushed to the margins of society?

Who stands to gain from an asylum system that is intentionally hostile?

Anywhere But Here is a powerful exposé of Britain’s broken asylum system and how it fails us all.

Each year tens of thousands of people risk their lives to cross the Channel in small boats hoping to find safety in Britain. Yet the very system designed to protect them has all but collapsed.

With unique and unparalleled access, award-winning journalist and former Home Office insider Nicola Kelly takes us behind the scenes of the small boats crisis for the first time.

We follow the under-resourced coastguard overseeing search and rescue operations in the Channel. The decision-makers hired from McDonald’s and Aldi to conduct ‘life and death’ asylum interviews. The immigration barristers securing last-minute reprieves for deportees who narrowly escaped death. And we step inside the Home Office corridors as ministers and advisors respond to emerging crises and scandals, from Windrush to the Rwanda plan.

At its heart are the stories of war-torn arrivals, lone teenagers and trafficked women attempting to settle in cities, towns and villages across the UK. We travel to meet them, exploring where they have fled from and why, and the response of local communities to their new neighbours.

Situated on the beaches and the ports, in the hotels, the courtrooms and the detention centres where the futures of those affected unfold, this is a searing investigation into one of the most urgent issues and shocking injustices of our time.

a brilliant exploration of a difficult topic. Kelly is a humanist to the core and that shines through every word she writes. brings an incredible amount of perspective and depth to stories so many of us only absorb through headlines and sound bites. necessary reading for all Britons

Emotionally Impactful and Nuanced

I was aware that the 'immigration/ asylum crisis' has rumbled on for years but hadn't fully appreciated just what a mess it was in. All the agencies involved are seriously under-resourced and riven by conflicting ideologies. Most of the media, too, only seem interested in fermenting and feeding a toxic debate.

Engaging narration together with the unfolding narrative kept me glued. I want to find more about this issue and also read more of this authors work.

recently the populist rhetoric has ground me down, knowing the truth is not on the side of a bus or at a rally with union jacks... I've enjoyed the tone of this book, feeling like I'm not the only one...
